Obama and McCain at La Raza: An open-borders lovefest
michellemalkin.com ^ | July 13, 2008 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 07/13/2008 12:32:51 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

Barack Obama takes the podium at the National Council of La Raza/The Race tonight. John McCain will Hispander, as Mickey Kaus puts it so well, tomorrow.

It’ll be an open-borders lovefest for Obama, who was championed yesterday at The Race conference by L.A.’s zealous pro-illegal immigration mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa. You’ll recall that Obama is very, very proud to have marched “shoulder to shoulder” with shamnesty activists in the 2006 illegal alien May Day parade. ABI gives him a career grade of D- for his immigration voting record.

As I predicted in my column this week, the open-borders radicalism of The Race has been whitewashed out of the MSM’s coverage of the conference.

Remember, I told you they are the Bitter-cans. This are the people that wish to diss you because you won’t bend over and grab the soap for the GOP’s favorite liberal.

Not voting for McCain is not a vote for Obama. It is only a vote that isn’t going to be for a liberal, big gubmint, pro illegal immigration, pro gorebal warming, pro stem cell research, anti free speech, RAT masquerading with a “R” behind his name.

It will be okay, really, many Democrats hate Obama. Just a fact of this election. People need to deal with the reality of it.

“A “NO” to MacCain is NOT a “YES” to Obama.”

Saying that over and over again, does NOT make it true.

Either McCain or Obama will be elected president. Any vote withheld from McCain IS a vote for Obama.

Why I Support John McCain
by Dennis Prager

http://www.townhall.com/columnists/DennisPrager/2008/07/01/why_i_support_john_mccain?page=full

“However noble their intentions, conservatives who do not vote for John McCain will be morally complicit in what happens to America during an Obama presidency.”
-— Dennis Prager

“I am now committed to doing everything I can within my power to get John McCain elected,” Mr. Scarborough said, “because I am 100 percent committed to seeing that Barack Obama is not elected.”

“Hear that folks? Just ‘cause you refuse to be good little Republican sheeple and just ‘cause you refuse to get thrown under McCain’s Straight Pandering Express (after making campaign contributions, of course), somehow that means you are all Obama lovers!”

Uh huh. I’ve observed something. The McCain boosters with their insulting little campaign slogans are pretty much the same group that used to call any one opposed to illegal immigration, “knuckle dragers”, rednecks, etc. Their favorite insult for me was to call me a racist and ‘old’. That one doesn’t work so well when THEIR candidate is a dozen years my senior.

“When you say “yes” to McCain you are saying “no” to conservatism. So you must logically be a communist.”

If you say no to McCain, you ARE saying yet to Obama. So —please explain how does it help conservatism to help elect Marxist Obama, and hand over all three branches of the government, including the judiciary over to the Democrats. How will it help conservatism to have the SCOTUS dominated by leftist activist judges, who will rule against everything that conservatives hold dear?

Why don't you just change it to "FReepers for OBAMA" ping list -- that IS what you are doing when you are "saying NO to McCain".

Ah.... another "fair opinion" offered. Who would have predicted? LOL.

“To bad more folks don’t realize that but the anti McCain folks are to busy listening to the Third Party Chuck Baldwin types who want to cut and run and anti war.”

Oh, come on. We’ve been outing McLame’s pathetic record for years. Maybe you listen to Chuck Baldwin, but I don’t. As for cut and run, it depends on which day McCain has his mouth running, doesn’t it.

2005...MATTHEWS: Would you be happy—we‘ve been there to help get them democracy started. But would you be happy with that being the home of a U.S. garrison, like Guantanamo or Germany all those years, where we have 50,000 troops permanently stationed in that country?

MCCAIN: No. I would hope that we could bring them all home. I would hope that we would probably leave some military advisers, as we have in other countries, to help them with their training and equipment and that kind of stuff.

MATTHEWS: But you‘ve heard the ideological argument to keep U.S. forces in the Middle East. I‘ve heard it from the hawks. They say, keep United States military presence in the Middle East, like we have with the 7th Fleet in Asia. We have the German—the North Korean—the South Korean component. Do you think we could get along without it?

MCCAIN: I not only think we could get along without it, but I think one of our big problems has been the fact that many Iraqis resent American military presence.

“However noble their intentions, conservatives who do not vote for John McCain will be morally complicit in what happens to America during an Obama presidency.”

Rather, it is the party shenanigans that put Liberal and/or open primaries first so that only a Liberal could win. Why should I support that? If I bend over for this candidate, how much worse will the next one be? The Republican Party has moved to a place I cannot follow.

Both Obama and McCain are for amnesty and against the Cronyn amendment. They oppose barring terrorists from this country - that is insane. McCain even had at least one secret meeting with LaRaza.

“The Republican Party has moved to a place I cannot follow.”

But you can follow OBAMA, instead?

Exactly. I gave them the benefit of the doubt until I couldn’t.

If you say “yes” to McCain you are saying “yes” to driving conservative values from the Republican Party and thus America. You must be a communist there is no other possibility. It is only logical that you hate conservatism.

There are several Chuck Baldwin and Bob Barr lemmings who are on these threads making way for an Obama victory.

What was said about McCain two yrs ago vs. now, the difference, this is an election year.

I want the border secured, against illegals and take away the fhandout to illegals but I also know we must win the war. not cut and run as the Third Party folks want.

Obama will not secure the border, give us judges like Roberts, will cater to the Muslims.
Obama’s friends are Marxists anti Americans.

McCain’s 19 yr old Marine son is based here in San Diego and will be on his second tour in Iraq soon and his other son will be grad. from the Naval Academy in months.

BTW that interview was in 2005 much has changed especially the surge and McCain supports the war and the troops unlike the third party anti war crowd

Look, you and I are both in California. You know as well as I do you might as well write in Hunter because your vote isn’t going to mean a thing. Just like it didn’t have one thing to do with picking the candidate for the primary. Don’t you get it? Your vote means absolutely nothing. And McCain tells you every day that he values the vote of an illegal alien over yours.

WE the people? Hardly.

It sounds as if you just do not understand, both are too "evil" to gain my vote. I will not help either one. The fact that McCain or the eventualy Democrat nominee wins without me is going to be a disaster for this country (either way.)
