“We’re spoiled, and we sit here at our keyboards and bellyache about the imperfections of our leaders. We have faced nothing like those who came before us, including John McCain. I’m sure what he went through has left scars that affect his personality. The closest most of us have gotten to the danger of the enemy of the US was on Sept. 11, 2001.”

Yes, a lot of us are spoiled relatively speaking. True, John McCain served our country honorably and sacrificed more than I can even imagine. He does however, live a very different life now and has for a very long time. He does not have to use the same hospitals we do that are so crowded with illegals that it is a detriment to our health when we are sick or injured. He didn’t have to send his kids to overcrowded, gang infested public schools. He doesn’t have to worry about not having a pension or retirement account, paying off his mortgage, or how he’ll help his kids through college.

He’s been part of the Ivory towers crowd for a long time and I assume that most of us here are not. I’ll continue to send money but it will continue to be to those organizations fighting for conservative causes as well as to victims such as Ramos and Compean. I can’t send one dime to McCain in good conscience while those two men sit in prison for doing the job our govt refuses to.

He does not consider you “God’s Children” unless you’re here illegally.

That’s how he rolls.

(Now watch, I’ll be attacked for posting the truth. That’s where we are.)

“I can’t send one dime to McCain in good conscience...”

You don’t have to.

Don’t let anybody tell you anything different.

It’s still America.

I’m sure everyone here has strong opinions as you’ve expressed, and I’m not here to defend every political wrong that John McCain has done. I want to keep obama out of the most powerful position in the world, and that’s my only goal.

To donate money or not, that’s your decision. But I certainly will, as at this point in time, however noble the cause, they don’t help with efforts to defeat BHO.
