America will be like any Eastern European bloc country of the 1960’s; dictatorship with no freedom. Christians and Jews will be screwed.
Mr. Obama your choices are dishonor or war. You chose dishonor. And you will have war...
I wish it was enough to merely make the easy case against Obama.
Remember, to vote for his opponent is to vote for a Kennedy-Republican. McCain’s record is largely liberal. I know about his 80% ACU rating, that’s not what I’m taking about (still, 80% is low), I’m talking about McCain’s entire political career being based on selling-out conservatives to the Left.
I have a long memory: Keating, gang of 14, McCain/Feingold, Amnesty...I want him to explain these failings.
Part of white written applies John McCain. The part about not fighting. McCain doesn’t want to fight with Democrats over policy.
Stalin’s definition of peace was when there is no resistance to Socialism, well McCain will give them what they want PEACE.
All three are a very bad choice for America.
BTTT!
In understand that you view 80% as to low using the ACU rating system, but where do you think Obama ranks on the ACU rating system. I would hypothesize he would rate about 0. While I think Ronald Reagan was the greatest embodiment of conservative principles, we don’t have a Reagan running. So for the the good of God and Country, I will vote for McCain and encourage other conservative minded folks (moderate/right of center, social conservatives, foreign policy conservatives, economic conservatives, movement conservatives, etc, etc,) to do the same.

IIRC Bambi's rating is 8 or 9. Definitely in the single digits and so is Hillary.
The lesser of two evils? Yes, McCain qualifies. Where does that put conservatives vis-a-vis the Republican party...I believe it gives us a second liberal party.
We went through this once before in 1964...Nelson Rockefeller was a liberal Democrat calling himself a Republican...Goldwater was...Goldwater.
Been there, done that.
That would make a great campaign ad.
You may be right about other things but that is really digging, in that McCain was included in Keating group because he was a republican. That's the way they did business when they were in charge.
This guy really scares me. So much rhetoric and not a shred of credible substance.
I’m not afraid to say - if this guy wasn’t black he would have been a bit part player in this election and everybody knows it.
Affirmative action is bad enough as it is, but for it to put a man into the position of the most powerful man in the world is ludicrous.
Vote for values and substance - something Obama is completely lacking in.
If he had been a man like MLK, who had achieved something and actually had a history of sorts, he’d avoid this criticism altogether.
For a sneak peek, rent this movie.
Eyeopening it is.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Obama is the black Jimmuh Carter, and if he wins, he’s going have a similar presidency: trying to get crazy liberal legislation across, bungling the heck out of the job so bad he can’t even keep his party behind him, and getting voted out in 2012.
People said the same thing after Carter’s election. And look what happened next — the Reagan Revolution.
America is a conservative nation at heart. It just has a habit of periodically falling for liberal claptrap, believing you can get something for nothing. It always goes back to its roots after experiencing what liberal rule leads to.
Well, lets be honest, I think Bush 2 is going to be the Republican’s “Jimmy Carter”. I voted for him twice (and would vote for him again vs. Gore and Kerry), as Bush was and is still the lesser of those two evils. But let’s be honest, Bush vs. Kerry in 2008, Bush does not win.
I don’t think McCain is a Rockefeller Repubilican. In fact, when you get down to it, Bush 1 and Bush 2 are more tied to that North East Corporate and Wall Street Republican Establishment or as Pat Buchanan describes as the “K-Street Fat Cats”.
McCain, for all his faults, is a Naval Academy grad, served in the Milatary, and thus on the issue of supporting and understanding the milatary (one of my personal core conservative principles), he past that tests. He has NARAL rating as one of the most anti-Abortion U.S. Senators, so on that test (and as a Pro-Life Catholic, this is one my personal conservative core issues), he past that test.
McCain has stated that he would appoint Supreme Court Justices in the Judicial Traditon of the late William Rehnquist, John Roberts, etc, which is also one of my core conservative principles (i.e. Originalist/Constructionist Judges).
Now, do I agree with everything McCain does? No, but I agree with nothing that Obama stands for.
Given the points I have cited above, I will gladly vote for McCain this fall as an Obama Presidency gives the George Soros Move on crowd the ability to influence the courts for the next four years.
