No I do not want any leftists or liberals to win. Obama has nothing to do with my lack of support of John McCain. He is a non factor. My objection to John McCain is bound up entirely in John McCain. It cannot be blamed on any other candidate, as far fetched is that. John McCain is the only one responsible for John McCain. And I am not voting for him. Obama is off topic, I have no use for him either.

Obama turns my stomach, as much as John McCain.

What are YOU smoking?

You are totally illogical.

Your support of Obama on this forum is despicable, too.

That’s some leap of logic. I support McCain winning, therefore I support hussein.. yeah.. that’s it?

I always find it instructive to look at folks other posts before going off at the mouth. AmericanInTokyo is no Obama fan. He has strong feelings and we have all come a long way from hating McCain. I know I have.

But with time and the trial of fire, McCain is looking better. He still has a ways to go but he is infinitely better than Obama or Hillary.

The Democrats that crossed to force McCain on the Republicans are really regretting this right now.

AiT may never be able to let go of the fury at some of the Maverick's past tricks, and I can understand. He still has to weigh the real cost of letting folks like Nancy Pelosi run this country. AmericaninTokyo is a patriot and he will make the right decision in the end even if that is just for himself.

I support Obama as much as you do. You got my point.

If you are going to claim I support that shill, then you are going to get it right back in your face as well. You support him as much as I do.

Actually, the difference is you support McCain and oppose Obama.

I oppose both of these men. Got it now?

I do not get it. You *have* to support one or the other in this race. You spend all your time displaying MDS, but I don’t see ANY hussein negatives from you hardly, if any!

All you do is complain about McCain!

All that’ll do is promote the alternative, which is.. hussein.. Get that?

Thank you for your magnanimous, kind, if not somewhat patronizing but forgiveable epistle. :-)

The decision is essentially made and it is down to about two or three options.

Unfortunately, for the Socialists (Obama) and the Liberals (McCain), the choice I am making in 2008 includes neither of those nitwits.

And to do otherwise, would make me into a liar. I won't have that. Thank you for respecting this position of non-support for both Osama and Scarface on my part, for whom they are and for what they both would do to the United States with their cabinet selections and administrations.

I plead for you to stop bashing McCain, thereby helping hussein. Please.. Stop.

I love the delicate way MS-LSD put it: “Thousands of motorcyclists greeted Republican presidential candidate”

Motorcyclists? Limp wristed.

I don't have to do anything of the sort.

i.e. arbitrarily support just one of two choices when there might actually be more than just two choices, perhaps three or four, who knows? Men in uniform, in case you might want to consider it, fought and died for a free electoral and ballot processes, that extends to any American political party which goes through the certified administrative procedures to stand for elections legally under our voting system. This was secured as much in Iwo Jima as it was in Khe San. Do you dispute this, fellow American?

If legally a party or person can get on a United States ballot and field a slate of electors for the Electoral College, that is a blood-shed right that I have guaranteed as a voter. You have a lot of nerve to dictate who I will vote for on my ballot, by limited legitmate choices. No one will dictate to me that "you will vote for "A" between "A" and "B", when there may well be "C", "D", and "E" there as well. Got it? Knew you would.

OK, I will stop—for this thread’s sake. I will argue this gladly on another thread with you. I dont want to get a reputation as a thread hijacker, so I am going to just let it lie right now. Take care. Enjoy your man and your campaign. Sorry if it got out of hand.

Seeing it best to realize only two choices are evident, show respect for McCain’s 2 sons who are currently serving. I’d Never let Obama get near being Commander and Chief with my vote or rhetoric. I’ll give McCain a break for now because it’s the right thing to do.

Oh please. McCain respectfully yet forcefully refuted the unsupported-by-evidence allegations of a True Believer™ in the "Vietnam MIAs are still alive and imprisoned" conspiracy theory.

On this you wish to hang McCain? Because he's realistic, rational and supremely well-informed with the personal experience to back it up? Because he's not inclined to fall for emotionally-driven wishful thinking?

This is McCain's strength, not his weakness. That you fault him for it speaks volumes to his credit and highlights your utter lack of any.

I know you are rather new to FR, just in the last few months, but per my #37 just, I called a ceasefire so the thread is not hijacked, but I am more than happy to take this up on a new thread. Thanks for your input.
