Bolton certainly would make a great Secretary of State. I would rather see him sent back to the UN though to make those parasites’ lives thoroughly miserable.

Getting rid of Bolton was one of the biggest mistakes made.

sorry my FRiend.. not buying it until I see it !!... so many times conservatives NEEDED John McCain just to have him "reach accross the Aisle" to Kennedy -- Feingold -- etc..etc..

He gets no pass from me... we need to keep the pressure on NOW.. and for the next 4 years if he wins.... and we must never let him forget that the ONLY reason he won was because of Sarah Palin...

FReegards,

David

exactly.. while I am thrilled with Palin as VP.. that in now way qualifies her to be President in 2012.. I am keeping my options open for 2012..

>> Amazing that McAmnesty supporters will try to rationalize McAmnesty putting Dems (read LIBERALS) in the cabinet... <<

Amazing that EVERY Republican President since Lincoln had put DEMOCRATS in his cabinet -- but ONLY when McCain does it, it shows he's a dirty filthy RINO scum. Yeah, it's really hard to "rationalize" McCain doing the exact same thing ALL the other 43 presidents before him did. Since this is such an unforgivable sin, perhaps you should start screaming "RINO!!!" at Ronald Reagan for appointing card-carrying DEMOCRAT Jeannie Kirkpatrick.

Soo all you freepers paranoid of simply "Democrats" (according to you, automatically means liberals) holding a political job, does this mean you'll stop fawning with love every time DEMOCRAT Zell Miller comes on TV?

Is this some new badge of honor that we are all supposed to admire?

One can surely see he has not changed his stripes one little bit- And further, I submit, If he were to attain office, any groundswell obtained by hiding behind Palin's attractively Conservative skirts will be translated into a mandate for his failed socialist agenda. Watch and see....

What are the odds that we'd get stuck with two useful idiots for the left in a single presidential election?

Pretty par for the course, IMHO... Reagan excepted...

I knew I was gonna regret my McCain-Palin donation. Maybe I’ll vote for Barr or Baldwin after all. And before y’all accuse me of helping to elect Obama, I’ve really just about had all I’m going to take from this old fart.

We can always hope for such picks, as opposed to the usual Fifth Column types.

Way to go, McVain! Now that he finally has one smart move under his belt - his VP pick - he’s going right back to doing what he apparently loves most: pissing all over the conservative base. I suppose he needs to repay his debt to those who made him the GOP candidate - Dems and liberal independents who were allowed to vote in early Republican primaries. Maybe he should make these folks real happy and introduce an affirmative action quota in his prospective administration: at least half of his picks must be Democrats. I suppose it would only be fair to reserve a certain number - say 10% - of openings for independents and others as well. After all, having an administration consisting primarily of Republicans would make him appear to be pandering to his own party - perish the thought!

Seriously, at this point I won’t be voting for McVain either. I will be voting for Sarah Palin. Hopefully the idiot will somehow get himself elected, and resign on January 21st. ACK!!!

Please consider that with McCain and all the BS we know he will do, we also get Gov. Palin as VP.

Palin will be in charge of energy and other important functions, which will put her in very good position for 2012 or 2016.

Palin could very well be another Reagan and we will have to deal with McCain to get her.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Voting for McCain may be suicide, but Sarah Palin, should she get to the oval office, will be the glorious afterlife. At least until we discover that she is human as well.

Of course Palin is human and will make mistakes. But so far she has me believing that her conservative and Christian principles run thru to the bone. Reagan was not always so conservative. Palin was born that way. We have to be steadfast and patient. To get President Palin we first must have President McCain. But she’ll be at his side and I don’t think he’ll be able to ignore her.
