By now, most McCain haters will have already skipped down to the comments section to post their expletives and tell me how it’s a free country and they have a 1st Amendment right, etc. to yammer on and on about how bad McCain sucks, totally missing the point of my post, again. But I’m here to tell you, in this free country, that in my opinion, you should SHUT YOUR STINKIN TRAP! To all you ingrates, rageaholics, and self-absorbed punks, WE KNOW YOU HATE MCCAIN. You can give yourself a rest now and stop posting on every single thread the same exact comments. I’m not going to name names, but I will if I have to. I think we all know by now who I’m talking about. The folks who post the same pictures and the same comments on EVERY SINGLE THREAD. We got it. You aren’t voting for McCain. Fine. Time to move on. Yes, that’s my opinion. You have had enough time to accept the reality that John Sidney McCain III, WAR HERO, is the Republican nominee. Some folks on FR have used this time to learn more about Johnny, realize that he isn’t as bad as they thought, grow up, act like adults, and get in gear to vote for him. Some of you have decided not only to beat your collective dead horse everyday, banging out the same tiresome gripes about McCain on every thread, but you’ve also gotten increasingly VITRIOLIC. I’m talking about the following trash:
1. Saying McCain isn’t really a war hero because (insert stupid lie here.)
2. Declaring that McCain urged the U.S. government to leave other POWs back in Vietnam (for what reason would he do this exactly? Don’t bother, I don’t want to hear your lies anymore.)
3. Insulting other FR posters who like or support Johnny by using profanity, vulgarity, and name calling. YOU ARE DIMINISHING FR with your hostile posts—this kind of stuff belongs on low rent leftie sites like DU, or Daily Kos, not FREE REPUBLIC, the shining star of conservative websites.
4. AND FINALLY, the filthiest load in the McCain Haters’ verbal trebuchet: wishing, hoping or praying that John Sidney McCain III would come to some misfortune which would prevent him from living to be President. THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST DISGUSTING. How can you wish that a decent, G-d fearing man who suffered and sacrificed out of love for this country, who, BY THE GRACE OF G-D, survived five years of torture and imprisonment only to return to service in the military—how could you wish him anything but a long, long life? Shameful. And don’t DARE try to suggest that you are any better in moral character or principle than the angry liberal scum who wish ill upon President Bush or our troops. If your definition of “conservative” is to rage daily and most repulsively against our next President, then please call me a “right wing Reaganite traditionalist” because I want no part of your scene. I realize that some talk show hosts like Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity don’t like Johnny, but I don’t recall hearing them praying for his untimely demise. No, that is the talk of the dregs of society, not adults who have their act together.
And just a heads up to all the McCain haters: I am ignoring your tirades henceforth. I can’t stop you from posting your garbage, but I certainly don’t have acknowledge it. Basically, the point of posts from people who like Johnny these days is to share daily news: tracking polls, statements he has made, who he is touring with, speeches he has given, leaders he has met with, etc. What is YOUR point? To seek out people to commiserate with? To insult fellow conservatives who’ve decided having a responsible leader in a time of war trumps giving the GOP a spanking? To try and rally others to joins the haters camp?
Are you going to do this for the next several years? If so, the best advice I can give to the non-haters is to wade through the rage and seek out the decent and the productive on FR. Do not waste your time debating the haters, because they seem to thrive on self-righteousness and rage. Try as they might, they have given absolutely no GOOD reason to allow a dem to win the presidency. Their continued daily rantings about why they hate McCain, on EVERY thread about him, only serve to define their insanity.
I seek out those of like mind. G-d Bless John Sidney McCain III.

You’re on the wrong forum sweety. We prefer our candidates to be anti-illegal immigration, pro-tax cuts, and anti-global warming, not lying RINO asshats with supporters that all have skid marks down the front of their face and can’t see the forest for the trees.
You wouldn’t happen to be a model from Brazil by any chance ...
Why do people abbreviate God as G-d? Is there some sort of filter that doesn’t let posters say “God”?
The only reason to vote for McCain: Obama (or Hillary)
No we didn't...We're still paying for his mistakes!!!!!!!
You mean except your post here?
I don't spam McCain threads with the same photos and/or comments over and over; I don't insult his supporters (although it seems hypocritical to whine about that while simultaneously insulting his detractors); I don't smear his war record or his record of service; I don't make allegations about his treatment of POWs in Vietnam. But I still can't support him; I have too many knives stuck in my back with his fingerprints on them for that.
Some folks on FR have used this time to learn more about Johnny, realize that he isn’t as bad as they thought, grow up, act like adults, and get in gear to vote for him.
I have learned plenty about him. He's every bit as bad as I thought. And I've heard enough whining about how I need to "grow up" and do what McCain supporters want me to. I still don't understand why McCain and his supporters seem to think insulting and attacking conservatives is a good way to gain their support. But keep drinking that kool-aid.
I have no intention of shutting up. I'm not on FR to toe the McCain line; I'm here to discuss news and politics from the perspective of my worldview and my principles. McCain lines up poorly with my ideas, and I intend to continue discussing that fact.
You know, now that I think about this, I've seen very little vitriol on FR directed at McCain supporters. I've seen plenty (including this "Breaking News" vanity) directed from his supporters at the rest of us though. I think you may be experiencing the psychological phenomenon known as projection.

You need a more relaxing hobby. I’d suggest the video game, “John McCain’s Virtual Fireplace”. VERY relaxing.
While he wasn’t my first choice, I will gladly and proudly vote for McCain. The other side is pure evil.
You got that right, Guenevere.
MC-Insane is just another RINO.
I’m not voting for McCain, but I’m sure you’ll give me amnesty after the fact for that transgression. So no worries.
Yeah that’s the way to bring in the support CG ......
