Hot Air ^ | 2008-11-25

Via the Standard. This is what they’re going to do to pass the time in Congress between bailouts? Jerk around with a hot-button issue guaranteed to enrage all sides and exacerbate Democratic infighting while the economy’s melting down and the Iran nuclear clock ticks on? Why not toss social security onto the table too, just to really get the juices flowing?

Mccain was going to save us from Democrats just 1 month ago, remember?? Can you imagine him selling out each issue with R president name on it for 4 years?

I need a huge tinfoil hat, because I’ve casually wondered if President Bush’s recent actions (Paulson, bailout, leaving half the money for Obama to control) are “payback” for our opposition to his cherished amnesty.

That was my line in the sand as far as voting for him. I’ll never be blackmailed into voting for the “lesser of two evils” again, look what that got us.

Just read my tagline.

Yep. Just today I exploded while watching the news and cursed a blue streak regarding Bush. Been defending him to my moonbat family for almost 8 years and I'm done.

I think you’re correct. They know how most Americans feel, and they won’t quit pushing it, and they don’t even wait a decent amount of time to start again. We don’t have “representatives” anymore, they are coming out into the open with their arrogance and defying the will of the people, and it’s both sides. Both sides have their own reasons for supporting it.

Has McCain been bought by OSAMABAMA ?
Investigation anyone?

What can I say? You’re correct. Just another political lesson I’ve had to learn the hard way. I apologise to my fellow Americans (the half of them that didn’t wholeheartedly support the racist socialist in their blind selfishness).

If there wasn't much of a fight against these things, this stuff would have passed in 2006.

John “Sonny Liston” McCain.

Next to the “Fairness Doctrine”, the most misleading phrase in today’s political lexicon is “comprehensive immigration reform” aka “amnesty” aka “open borders” aka “Democrat majorities as far as the eye can see”.

How did we get stuck with this guy?

Don’t beat yourself up too badly. I couldn’t do it myself—especially after Palin pandered on illegal immigration to the Univision audience—but it got tempting towards the end with Obama as the other choice. I figured if McCain couldn’t win in Texas without my vote, he didn’t deserve to win at all. Maybe I would have done differently if I were in a battleground state, but I guess I’ll never know.

So, in the coming depression and in addition to SEVERAL MILLION Americans out of work- the Obamites plan to “create” enough jobs for them plus millions more immigrants

And give them health care too I understand the democrat goal to pump up their voter rolls by another 15 million or so 3rd world people looking to be “taken care of” ...notwithstanding what that does to America

But jobs.... prove it to the legals who played by the rules. They will be the first ones bumped.

I can't even enjoy the “ I told you so’s”, what is coming is just too damn scary.
I asked for my own rifle for an anniversary gift last weekend and put ammo on my Christmas list. Very sad.

you think that’s scary? What will you shoot? A gun won’t protect you when everything is messed up.

You know, I had considered having you remove me from your ping list but I said, “No. It is good to have this information so I don’t suffer from any illusions, should McCain win.”

Thank you, rabscuttle385! Hopefully, you’ll expand this to a RINO-watch or something.
