John McCain couldn't handle the outstanding rebel-rousing introduction by Cincinnati conservative talk show host, Bill Cunningham the other day--a man the McCain Campaign had hired to introduce the Senator. Instead, Wussie McCain immediately "apologized" profusely to Obama for Cunningham's using Obama's full name over and over during the intro. This shows how "p.c." and how "wussie" John McCain is when it comes to worrying about how the left is going to perceive him. Instead of concentrating on gaining base support which he sorely needs and can't win without, he's playing to the left and saying to conservatives, "S**w you! I can win without you!".
I watched that introduction by Cunningham and there was NOTHING "nasty" or untoward in it. He didn't call the Jewish religion "a gutter religion", and he didn't call New York City "Hymietown"! As I see it, he was asking, "Do we really want a President who, if he is not a Muslim now, is going to (as Obama has said he would) 'cozy up' or "make friends" with Islamic dictators like Iran's dictator?" That was the message I got from Cunningham's words.
The ensuing flap is something McCain probably said "I could care less about", but he should care about it because it's hurting him, big-time, with conservatives who might otherwise be inclined to vote for him. Limbaugh, Hannity et al are rushing to defend one of their own, Bill Cunningham, as well they should. If McCain thinks he's "scored points" with conservatives, he needs to "think again". After McCain's shafting Cunningham following Cunningham's introduction, Cunningham said he "...would never vote for McCain" although he wouldn't vote for Hillary, either.
Besides being a nasty old man, John McCain still doesn’t value the words or accolades from conservatives--even those who have endorsed him. I think conservatives should "return the cold shoulder" towards McCain in November, big-time!
What does that mean?
I didn't agee with McCain on that but I almost blame Romney for using language that was so easily misinterpreted.
LOL, He will lose so big in november or can you not see that?
Saying mean things about the opposition just for the sake of saying them is pointless.
Like criticizing Hillary's big butt and Obama's big ears.
Says NOTHING about their record, nor anything about their REAL ambitions. That in the case of either of them is too scary to contemplate.
Actually I've never liked McCain that much and especially am turned off by his infamous temper.
But he's right on this. You can't associate yourself with a bunch of out of control loud mouths when you're running for the White House.
I believe it.
I really do like your tagline...it speaks volumes...in fact your tagline speaks more than volumes of the three offerings left running for President of the United States, if one can call such three offerings. It certainly appears, your tagline has captured the meaning proposed, by the three left, in this run for the Presidency of our Nation.....I should probably add.... your tagline is beyond the words a mere compliment could ever express.
So who are you voting for. Clinton or Obama?
Who is going to have the stones to ask him this question?
Will Barak have the stones to denounce the muslim religion?
We need an honest answer then - WHY did he become a christian & not follow his father's beliefs?
You know they believe that once a muslim - always a muslim.
BAD things happen if you accept christianity & denounce them!!
Are you part of mcnutts campaign?If not ,you sure should be.In case you dont know the bridge is out down the line.
Oh no. fartmart called you a troll.
What is your source for the above?
CTHULHU is the great monstrous creature of the H. P. Lovecraft novels. The Dread One is known throughout sci-fi fantasy as the ultimate expression of mind-wrenching horror.
Definitely the greater of any two evils.
It's terminal. Just like the GOP's future.
I will not hurl names at McCain. It is useless at this point anyway.
What I will say is McCain is not Conservative and I truly believe he will damage us.
Having said that, I have to hold my nose and vote for him because the alternative is far worse. And I hate that lack of choice!
In any event we are screwed. It is only a matter of degree.
Write in or will leave it blank and that is a promise.
sounds serious .
Everytime I hear someone tell me that I need to get behind him because he’s the unofficial (as yet) nominee, I’m going to laugh in their face.
