Washington is INDEED broken, and socialists, like Obama and his ilk, need to be STOPPED.

McCain is a Socialist at worst and a Big Government liberal at best. So why are folks here not trying to stop him?

Let's review the facts, shall we?

McCain's campaign launched an advert. in early August 2008 claiming that "Washington is broken" and only John McCain knows how to fix it. (This is the infamous "original maverick" advert.)

Washington is broken. The problem is that McCain has been in Washington since 1983. The problem is that McCain has been in Congress for those twenty-six and one-half years.

On July 10, 2008, McCain declared his open support for a government-bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. He told reporters, about FNM and FRE: "They will not fail, we will not allow them to fail."

On July 17, 2008 McCain said that he was open to bailing out General Motors...if necessary.

So let's get the facts straight here. For advocating a socialization of FRE/FNM's losses, McCain is as much a Socialist and Big Government freak as Obama.

Regardless of who wins in November, the only "change" that we, the taxpayers, are going to have is what's in our pockets, after Big Government (led by McCain and Obama) takes its cut in order to pay for bailouts.

Stop him? There is one way to stop him. Elect Obama.
That’s the choice, at this point.

Rabscuttle385, when will you learn that to the true believing GOP Kool-Aid drinker, being forcibly buggered is perfectly acceptable (Nay, will even be cheerfully welcomed!) so long as his assailant is one of his own?

You need to crawl back into your hole.
