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.
AIT,
I truly understand where you are coming from. Understand that I am not trying to urge you to change your thinking, or, ask you to violate your principles in not voting for the bastard McCain.
Just showing my hard thought out reasoning on why I have gone down this road in (blowing huge chunks) throwing my vote his way...
I wrote the following in February after finding out he was to be the GOP nominee (I financially supported Duncan). For this to make sense, please replace Hitlery’s name with Obama’s:

Just for discussion since we have quite the dustup concerning voting for McCain, or, as as many on the forum are now saying to give the socialists power for 4-8 years as a protest vote, which I find insane...
I must admit that I have a visceral hatred for McCain for what he did to our MIAs, some, my comrades in arms, and their Families. He essentially sentenced those brave Soldiers, Marines, and Airmen to die horrible, lonely deaths by closing those hearings when we still had numerous sighting information. His actions were, and, are unforgivable. His berating, overbearing , negative handling of the desperate families on this issue is far beyond the pale, and, in an earlier era, he most likely would have been challenged to many duels for his lack of integrity.
What is the alternative? Not vote? Write in mickey mouse? Do we truly want the Clinton Dixie mafia back in power? Some say they would… That after four years of a Hillary! Administration, we could easily waltz back into power to repair whatever damage she had done. Balderdash! If Hillary! gains the power of the Executive Branch again, she would fill the Judicial Branch with ultra liberal judges, including our Supreme Court. There would be no judgeship, from the very top, to the smallest slot in the federal bureaucracy, that Hillary! Wouldn’t fill with anti American progressives. That’s a fact.
Hillary! In four years, would cement that bureaucracy within the bureaucracy, with lifelong appointees that could, and would be the stepping stones to her dream of a Marxist socialist society that no way resembles our American way of a Representative Republic, and there would not be a damned thing you could do about it.
If you thought Slick Willy’s destructive, demoralizing, dismantling of our Armed Forces was a good idea, just wait and see how thorough Hillary! will be in her first term, and believe it, if she gets one term, she will get another…especially after she lavishes “bread and circuses” thickly onto the liberal, so called progressive masses.
One must remember, be it Hillary! Or Obamanation, whoever it is selected by the socialists, will come on board with both Houses of Congress already in the democrat majority, and on either one’s side in their quest to “change” America.
If you thought fighting for your rights, especially the Second Amendment, was hard under a left leaning Bush, You ain’t seen nothing yet when there is no power whatsoever on your side to fight against the old oak tree of Alinsky socialism.
McCain’s views on all other issues are contrary to this Conservative’s beliefs. Be it the Second Amendment, Illegal alien amnesty, global warming, or the host of co-sponsored bills with the liberals, All make my blood boil.
That is, with the exception of his view on the War, the military, and the support of our Troops fighting that conflict.
It is for that reason alone, that I will cast my Vote for that bastard. I believe that all others that support our Troops should do the same, regardless of all other issues. We could still fight the bastard’s insane, liberal views, with the congressional republicans that survive the coming slaughter in November.
There you go AIT, It is truly a mind numbing decision for me to make. Not being the drinking type, I fully intend to drive home after I vote, take a long hot shower, then drink that bottle of Patron I recieved as a Christmas gift just passed... UGH!
I was just getting irritated about those guys slamming on you without taking the time to check who you are. Its lame.. and once I decided to get into it.. then I felt I had to include you on the note.. which from the tone could be irritating.. but it was meant for the slammers who need to learn a bit more politeness or at least dig a bit before opening mouth and inserting foot.
I agree with their position for the most part, but on seeing your post, I just decided to let it be as you were entitled to your opinion and you are able to support it with facts. Thats all I ever ask.
If you were posting this in every thread about McCain and making it a big deal, I would be all over you just the same.. but this is the first time I saw this posted and it reminded me of my own issues with this man, but, honestly.. I have let some of that go as water over the dam. If he lets go of Cap and Trade, and the Global Warming hoax, and moves toward ANWAR I will be pretty whole hearted about him. For now, I am more enthusiastic than the "Lesser of Two Evils" bunch but still concerned.
On the Vietnam thing, I believe there are things I don't know about this issue. Its hard to imagine anyone who would more appreciate the situation of Vets left behind than McCain. So you have to go to what possibly could be his reasoning for his actions. Its hard to find a gain for him in this.. so who or what is he protecting comes to mind. And, this guy is most likely to be doing something to protect something worthy than not, its just his character. He is a pain sometimes because he gets a wild hair and seems to be protecting the wrong thing, but he has always been earnest about it, at least as best as I can tell.
