the presumptive Republican nominee Huh? They were calling Hillary "presumptive" two years ago. I think it's safe to call McPain the Republican nominee at this point.

What are the evangelicals waiting for?
McCain is pro-life. He won’t do anything with the embryonic stem-cell research........so don’t worry about that.
The important thing is that he is pro-life, and won’t kill the babies or support Planned Parenthood like ‘Bama does.
Wake up, evangelicals!

Oh, I’m awake.
Waiting to see if he’ll pick the homosexual Florida governor for VP. Pandering to the gay lobby would NOT be out of character for McCain.

Says who? You?
That is not what McCain says, so why should Christians believe you?
He most assuredly will push this and with the Democrats in control of both houses he will get it.
That is why my family, all conservative born-again Christians, will not be voting for McCain.
We don't vote for people who support Murder!

What exactly are you quoting from some Obama web site ?
Mccain has always been pro life and anti partial birth .
Obama not only is PRO Abortion , He is Pro Partial Birth, and supports denying medical care to care to babies that survive an abortion.
Obama is a radical Marxist lawyer and would fill the Supreme Court with 3 radical Marxist lawyers . So stay at home and let the radical left take over the courts, federal agencies, the FBI, and shut down the new media including this website and talk radio.

Some people are so twisted with hate for McCain they will latch onto anything to avoid having to conclude they must vote for him.

McCain has stated he is in support of Embryonic Stem-Cell Research, that is who I am quoting from.
From my own research of John McCain:
6.
Support for embryonic stem cell research (Murder of unborn babies).
7. Wants to moderate or soften the Pro-Life plank of the GOP Platform. See
Here and
Here and

<Some people are so twisted with hate for McCain they will latch onto anything to avoid having to conclude they must vote for him.
Some people are so blinded by their pragmatic support for the GOP that they keep their heads in the sand and refuse to see the facts when they are right before their eyes.
See my previous post on this thread for the proof of my earlier statement.

McCain is pro-lifeReally? He's just as pro-life as he needs to be to make it in the party (the Guiliani fiasco proved that an openly pro-choice Republican ain't going nowhere). Nevertheless; real pro-life candidates don't push for embryonic research, they don't try to silence pro-life groups, and they certainly never suggest that RvW should by upheld.
At best he's personally opposed to abortion; which is nice, but fails to provide me with a reason to vote for him.

McCain is pro-life. He does not believe in abortion.
Do your homework and research, please.

I am sick of this misinformation campaign being conducted by the Mccain haters and there fellow Obama travelers.
As you attack and trash Mccain you are trying to get Obama elected. Obama is a Marxist lawyer and his far left wife plan to destroy this country and rebuild it as socialist hell. Even Tom Delay called Obama a Marxist on AIR. OBama and his buddies like Soros ,Code Pink, Moveon.org, ANSWER, AYERS, ACCORN, will be placed in key places in our federal agencies like the Justice dept, FBI, NSC, CIA, State dept ,Supreme Court. They will rewrite the voting laws, regulate the new media out of existence, shut down talk radio, eliminate the electoral college, and give 20-30 million illegals instant citizenship . And your helping to get this Marxist and his buddies sin office . Great IDEA.

You are right. I still can’t decide whether Bambi or mccain would be worse.
Giving no thought to voting for either of them.

Thank you for the links. As a lapsed Catholic, I have drifted away from the church but I do respect the church’s intellectual and theological knowledge. I will enjoy reading through these.
To: SoConPubbie
6. Support for embryonic stem cell research (Murder of unborn babies). Your own link contradicts this...
Referring to recent reports that researchers have reprogrammed mature adult human skin cells to produce embryonic-like stem cells, McCain said he believes "skin stem cell research has every potential very soon of making" the issue of embryonic stem cell research "academic." He said that his decision to support embryonic stem cell research was "one of the toughest" he has had to make, adding that one reason he favors the research is "those embryos will be either discarded or kept in permanent frozen status."

Dude... I have fallen for that worse of two evils before.
If we survived Jimmy we can survive Bambi. I assure you I will lose no sleep either way.
It is kind of fun picking a write in name.
