NO SHOWERS!!!

It's like Fonzie jumped the shark, but Happy Days is still the only thing on TV.
Bulletin to the Editors of National Review: The whole damn ‘crisis’ is utter bunk.
McCain will let the Senate decide who his judges will be.
From your lips to mine. I feel the exact same way and am having an already difficult time trying to convince myself that voting for McCain is a good thing. Problem is, I take my right to vote very seriously and refuse (right now) NOT to vote in November.
As my dearly departed Mom used to say . . ."We are in a pickle!"
NO SHOWERS!!!
His temper and ego already tell us that he will surround himself with yes-men.
I remember pollution credits being touted in the early '90s as the eventual solution to global warming. The problem is that people don't care about pollution, they care about energy. What a nice sounding global cap on pollution really comes to is a communist takeover of the global fuel market. If such a thing can happen, it will mean a new global government will rule over the planet with control over energy trade. If you want to generate your own fuel for use inside your own country, the new global government will either invade to stop you, or blockade you if you have a good enough military.
Screw Lieberman. Maybe Juan McCain should pick Gore as his running mate.
Do you have some suggestions?
It indicates a foolish willingness to sacrifice trillions of dollars on the altar of fashionable, though uniformed, opinion and political expediency.
What sort of uniform does fashionable opinion wear?
Of course it matters, but the devil is in the details. If McCain says coal is bad, so we're fast-tracking nuclear, great. If he says electric cars are the future, and gives hefty tax breaks to bring battery manufacturers into the country, all the better. However, if he says car companies must have an average of 60mpg by 2010, or declares huge portions of the U.S. as open space and off limits to development, or makes it even more difficult to manufacture anything with new ppb pollution regulations, then we're screwed.
This is why senators in general, make lousy presidents.
He has said he will bring in Warren Buffett to head a commission on reforming government. He said he'd work with Harry Reid to get SS Reform (and give all he "credit" to Dems. To most Dem questions, it is McCain who seems to be saying "Yes." Best watch your wallet, no matter who is elected.
If he accepts AGW, is it because he has shut off input from those who don't agree with what he already thinks?
Well... he sent Lindsay Graham out to call everyone bigots for not agreeing with his Amnesty plan. That should give us all a clue. I sure haven't seen him with Inhofe at his side.
"Once you leave reason behind, there is no logical stopping point"...to idiocy. There are no longer any reasons to vote for McCain. He has left reason, and what's best for America, behind, in ignorant, blind ambition to gain the White House. Vote against the Dems if you like, but please don't continue the fiction that there is any reason to vote for McCain.
If the economy can be sacrificed, and global warming crowned as a "national security issue," than the judiciary and the military are also negotiable, depending on how the polls shake out.
It's just so disappointing to hear McCain tack even further to the left.
If this AGW stuff gets passed, it will damage the U.S. more than anything in Iraq could ever do.
Good point. And I would have to vote "yes".
I would surmise that McCain is incapable of admitting he's made a mistake. His ego is one of the biggest burdens he'll have to bear. Not to mention the country...
Romney would never buy into this global warming hoax.
That's one reason -- among others -- why he'll never be McCain's choice for Veep.
Every time that I think of that possibility, I try to swallow my bile and vow to vote for the Republican John McCain. But, each week afresh, another step is taken by this flummoxed political hack that causes me to avow to the television or Internet screen how I think I may be busy on November 4th.
What an idiot.
