I just got an e-mail from johnmccain.com asking me to sign some stupid petition asking the President to work with Republicans and come up with a compromise plan.

I immediately sent them a message to “unsubscribe” me from any future messages.

He has nothing to say to me that I care to hear.

I voted for this man by default (I really voted for Palin, NOT McCain). He needs to go away and spend time with his ditzy daughter (now we know where she got her ideals from).

You pulled quotes way out of context.

Let's look at a fuller quote:

---------------------------------------------

L. KING: What -- what is wrong -- Senator, what is wrong with, we have the Postal Service and FedEx.

What's wrong with a public option on health?

What's wrong with giving the Americans -- OK, if you can't afford this, we'll give you that?

MCCAIN: Well, the -- the Postal Service is -- is going broke. It has about a $7 billion deficit no matter what FedEx does.

Another point here is, is will the government option have an unfair advantage?

If it doesn't, then it's just one of 1,500 or more health insurance policies available -- health insurance plans available to Americans. If it has an unfair advantage, then, obviously, Americans are going to gravitate in that direction and private health insurance will be more expensive. So there -- there has to be some advantage here for people to leave their health insurance policy and that would be a government health option, in my view. And people would gravitate out of it -- out of public...

L. KING: Is there any...

MCCAIN: ...out of the private health insurance. L. KING: Is there any is there any good reason, Senator, in a government and in a nation this rich, why anyone -- anyone should go without health needs?

MCCAIN: There is no reason why there should not be affordable and available health insurance and health care for all Americans.

The question is, are you going to have the, "public mandate?"

Are you going to have costs which escalate to over $1 trillion and no way to pay for it?

Despite what the president said tonight, there's still no -- in the estimate of the Congressional Budget Office, a way to pay for this $1 trillion added burden onto the already $9 trillion in deficits we're going to have over the next 10 years anyway. It's -- we cannot sustain this kind of deficit. It has to be paid for. The president pledged to. So far, his numbers don't add up.

---------------------------------------------

McCain is far from on board with Obamacare.

“SEN. JOHN MCCAIN (R), ARIZONA:I thought he had a lot of passion.”

This wasn’t a porno movie, John.

“[lauds Obama, says GOP want bipartisanship]”

That ol’ AH lives in the past when bipartisanship was credible.

The man is daft thinking bipartisanship still exists, or could exist with this lot in opposition to our constitution, our way of life, to America in general.

The Democrats today are the enemy of our way of life, our National success. They are against everything we as Americans stand for.

They, THE DEMOCRATS ARE THE ENEMY WITHIN.

When I think of McCain, I remember that Benedict Arnold was a war hero too.

As if I really, truly care what a senile old fool, and a Chicago slumlord have to say about anything, let alone anything of substance...
