The GOP could have had Duncan Hunter for our standard bearer but the RINOs and nay-sayers decided that John McCain’s superior record on border security made him more viable (har har) as a candidate.
The Party of Reagan is dead.
I haven’t heard Duncan Hunter mentioned as a running mate for McCain, but he would be a great choice.
“....only to have the dems and the RINOs constantly trying to cut his legs out from under him.”
and my question is... why?
This issue has been COMPLETELY taken off of the screens by the system and Tweedledee/Tweedledum. Neither of those two fools will take it up, nor will their campaigns promote it, nor will the corrupt two party system at the top controlled by lobbyists for open borders, make IMMIGRATION AN ISSUE IN THE GENERAL ELECTION, even though it was a burning issue in the initial GOP primaries, (conveniently until all pro-border security types could be knocked out one by one by the establishment and media).
Let’s see how we could have fared...
Close Gitmo and give Habeas Corpus to the terrorists? McCain Sí , Hunter NO.
Open up ANWR? McCain NO, Hunter YES
Open up the coastlines and increase coal production? McCain NO, Hunter YES.
GIve amenesty to 20 million plus illegals for a nominal fine (if they can afford it)? McCain Sí, Hunter HELL NO
Ban the incandescent lightbulb? McCain Sí, Hunter NO
End waterboarding? McCain Sí, Hunter HELL NO
Worry and fret what the leftists around the world think about us? McCain Sí, Hunter HELL NO
Put on perfume and kneepads for the communist scumbags in China? McCain Sí, Hunter HELL NO
Eliminate taxes on US manufacturing entities? McCain no, Hunter Yes.
ELiminate the Dept of Education, Energy, Hud, the IRS, and slash the EPA’s budget by half? McCain no, Hunter YES.
Raise CAFE standards? McCain Sí, Hunter NO
List the polar bear as endangered species per the radical environmentalists request? McCain Sí, Hunter NO
Enforce the law about US content of US defense systems? McCain NO, Hunter HELL YES.
Pass legislation to give FULL constitutional protection to the unborn, or alternately, amend the constitution? McCain No, Hunter HELL YES.
Fast track permitting for the border fence? Mccain NO, Hunter HELL YES.
Pass the LOST treaty giving the UN control of the world’s oceans? McCain Sí, Hunter NO
Join the International Criminal Court? McCain Sí, Hunter NO
Burder the US with trillions in costs for Cap and trade/Global warming? McCain Sí, Hunter Hell NO
Close the “gun show loophole” and ban “cheap handguns”? McCain Sí, Hunter Hell NO
Further restrict the 1st Amendment with more campaign finance laws? McCain Sí, Hunter Hell NO
“windfall” profits taxes for oil companies? McCain Sí, Hunter Hell NO
Remind me again why McCain is the nominee?
If not dead, it certainly is on life support.
Farm lobbyists, hospitality lobbyists, and rank liberalism, not necessarily in that order.
Geeee... Really? Wow, I'm really really impressed she figured this out so quickly.
Do they people in DC take One-A-Day Dumb pills every morning?
Mental giant. Too much education, not nearly enough common sense.
Just for the heck of it....
This should have been put in place when CA was inspecting cars on I-5(?) years ago.
He also chnged his tune about what the lesson learned was....and he is right. He was pimping amnesty all last year and yet he got nominated. The GOP voters can kiss my arse. This disgusts me to no end.
Dream thought that will never ever happen.
The Republican party morphed into a strange leftist, liberal organization some years ago. It's basically been undermined and compromised by impersonators.
Hunter never had a chance.
Yeah, take that gringo...
Actually, since Juan Hernadez is john's hispanic outreach director, and since McCain is speaking before the almighty great and wonderful La Raza in July, perhaps these are his campaign workers...
> but he would be a great choice.
LOL! Except that they have almost nothing at all in common except that they both breathe air...
Careful now, you might give somebody the impression that this Conservative forum is the Free Republic instead of the Free Republican."
Tell those that are so ga-ga over McCain’s stance on National Security that our National Security begins at our borders. He has nothing to offer We The People on the latter.
It’s part of the plan to throw the election to the dems?
Globalist manipulation? Either way, it seems they win.
No it doesn't. Just ask Bush, Chertoff, McCain, LaRaza, the Chamber of Commerce, Tyson Foods, almost an landscaper, etc.
