McCain wins Wisconsin per all news outlets. He is giving a great speech now.
Well you are as big a part of the problem as anyone else. Your scare tactics work here, but this is hardly a broad spectrum of America. Tancredo got 2%.
What Bill are you going to get past Do Nothing Nancy?

Excellent post!
>Well you are as big a part of the problem as anyone else
Umm, thats my take about you, bray.
>Your scare tactics work here,
Bray, someone needs to slap you upside the head and teach you the difference between scare tactics and plain ole unvarnished FACT.
Do you think that I paid those people to march and hold up communist signs?
Dems the facts bray, the reality on the streets in America today, and calling them “scare tactics” will not change for one minute the reality that they are, in fact, facts.
Sleep peacefully.
“Open primaries are a function of state laws.”
So in some states, the individual party has no choice??
[True, all true...but.....he is all for the dissolution of the nation from within. Liberalism is what is killing us. Not Islam. We can easily deal with radical Islam and those idiots who espouse it, but only if we are not paralyzed from within by liberalism. McCain will fight Islamofacists in Iraq but let em in wholesale across our southern border. He has no respect for your rights, he doesn’t like conservatives, and he will continue the now time-honored (by the MSM) path towards the internal disintegration of this nation. The muslims are the least of our worries.]
I agree.
In ancient Roman times, the legions often had to come back in the middle of fighting reasonably justifiable wars in order to deal with Senators who were stabbing them in the back at home.
I fail to see why that isn’t clear, but maybe its because few read history books. :-(
And some people here are forgetting what they learned in Negotiations 101 on their first day at Business School:
*Never, never reveal to your opponent that you are willing to accept their offer without their having to make concessions of any kind.*
Some people here at FR are telling McCain, in no uncertain terms, that although they don’t like him, they will vote for him because of the alternatives.
They are not making him feel the need at all to make any kind of concession...not even a little one like possibly repealing one of the many McCain & Friend Acts.
Now I understand that maybe some of these people may have slept in on the first day of B-School, but please fill them in on the basics of Negotiations 101.
If you are going to vote for McCain in November, you can still make him sweat when a pollster calls you. Mention a 3rd party and hope he takes the hint when he sees the poll results and tries to earn you back instead of doing the usual, which is to ignore you while trying to impress the illusive soccer-terror mom.
Nope, just support the Free Market System. Something that used to be valued around here. Now the Shamnesty Marxists have taken over. You hate Business, Farmers and Cheap Labor. Such Conservative values.
How did Tancredo/Hunter do? A combined 5% tween them while likely getting 80% of FR.

“Article 2A directly contradicts “freedom of religion”.”
The other safeguards contradict your interpretation. Iraq is a ally of the U.S. and a foe of Al Qaeda. Our success there is directly related to the national security of the U.S.(for some reason you are unwilling to accept this reality). The article you cited is another inane reason given by the isolationist crowd for withdrawl and abandoning our allies to al Qaeda and Iran. Your hopes that we fail in Iraq (assuming that is your mindset) have been crushed by the Sunni Awakening. Even the Sunni Iraqis have joined us against Al Qaeda.
“Much the same as McCain. Nothing. What about Saudi Arabia?”
Saudi Arabia? Are their any candidates that favor sanctions and/or military action against Saudi Arabia?
What will be followed by the Muslims in government? Same thing they’ve always followed. ISLAM.
“Iraq is a ally of the U.S. and a foe of Al Qaeda.”
There is no such thing as an actual “Muslim ally”.
“our hopes that we fail in Iraq (assuming that is your mindset) have been crushed by the Sunni Awakening. “
The Sunnis are also the enemies of the West. 9/11 wasn’t exactly a Shi’ite operations.
“Saudi Arabia? Are their any candidates that favor sanctions and/or military action against Saudi Arabia?”
No and that’s why we will lose this war.
“There is no such thing as an actual “Muslim ally”.”
Purist elitism has no place in the pratical world. Yes, there is such a thing as a Muslim ally. This is why we fight our enemies together. I can guarentee that the Iraq Muslims have killed more Al Qaeda fighters than yourself. Just like the communist Russians killed more Nazis than you.
“The Sunnis are also the enemies of the West. “
Yeah, what a ‘enemy of the West’ that Sattar was. These mindless blanket statements can only be uttered by a Paulistinian, and aren’t worth refuting.
Did that make Stalin a real ally, or an ally or opportunity?
Same with the Muslims.
“Yeah, what a ‘enemy of the West’ that Sattar was. These mindless blanket statements can only be uttered by a Paulistinian, and aren’t worth refuting.”
Are you actually going to claim that Saudi Arabia is NOT the source of the current Jihad - that it isn’t actively promoting fundamental Islam - around the world? A nation that held telethons for suicide bombers. A nation that still protects funders of terrorism? Are you seriously that BLIND?
“McCain will go after Obama hard this summer and fall.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.............
Obama had more votes than all the republicans combined.
add in the Hil votes and it’s like 4 to one in turn out.
Conservatives are staying home....and if McCain is our
candidate they will not vote for him..
I hope the GOP wakes up in time. but get ready for a
major landslide for the Dems.. the RINO’s have brought us here.
And if you spit at our troops by supporting Obama or Clinton you are NO CONSERVATIVE.
SPITTING AT OUR TROOPS IS NOT CONSERVATIVE!
Another non conservative troop hater.
Again since when is spitting on our troops conservative?
Do you plan on actually going up to service members and spitting on them or just doing it figuratively.
ANTI MCCAIN MEANS PRO AL QUEDA.
huh?
It works both ways. I know folks who voted for Clinton because she’d be easier to defeat in November.
“Again since when is spitting on our troops conservative?”
A vote for McCain is just as much a spitting on of the Constitution those troops took an oath to protect and defend as a vote for Hillary of Obama.
Get a better line. This one is tired.
“It works both ways. I know folks who voted for Clinton because she’d be easier to defeat in November.”
I understand that, but I feel we could lose more than we gain, because if you run a liberal against a liberal, you end up with a liberal as POTUS.
