Just a question: Have you noticed that McCain’s website, under [Get Involved] does not list Free Republic in its drop-down list of Conservative blogs? Well, yes, FR is not a blog per se; it’s a forum. But even then, it’s a far more open method of engaging conservatives than a blog is.
Ever wonder why FR isn’t listed? I have. We’ve been around far longer than many of the blogs mentioned. We likely have a far greater number of members.
You see, John McCain is trying to enlist “other” to do his ‘reaching out’ for him. This way, he doesn’t have to do it. Sure, he had the same method for liberal blogs, but wouldn’t you think that he’d be more personally proactive in reaching out to the base of “his” party? I would. That is...if he really cared.
So, a second question is “Since he obviously doesn’t care, why should you? Why should we?” Oops, I guess that’s two questions.
Here’s the list, just minutes old...

I thought we just agreed to disagree?
“So, a second question is “Since he obviously doesn’t care, why should you? Why should we?” Oops, I guess that’s two questions.”
O.K. I’ll take the bait. If we don’t pull the lever for the McManiac, how do we keep Barack HUSSEIN and his clique of elitist anti-Americans and Muzzies from taking over Washington?
