Conservatives: Beware of McCain Regression Syndrome (McCain wants to hijack GOP, Tea Party)

This article is a great call to action, full of valuable information.

It would be a mistake to make McCain’s campaign a referendum on Palin at this point in time. That would be unnecessarily divisive and distracting. and it appears to me that there are already a couple of suspicious posters around trying to engineer exactly that. We don’t even know if Sarah’s going to run in 2012, and there will be time yet to deal with the Palin Problem, if in fact there even is one. In either case, that’s an argument we don’t need to have today.

In the meantime, if we don’t get rid of McCain once and for all, he’s an immediate and very serious threat to the conservative movement. J.D. Hayworth needs to declare his candidacy SOON so that all concerned factions can throw nationwide support behind him the way we did for Brown. For me, that sounds like the first logical order of business. Secondly, it sounds like there are good conservative candidates in Florida, Colorado and California who need some $upport to deal with McCain’s machinations and his desperation to destroy and demoralize the Tea Party.

Thanx for putting that web addy in your tagline. I just joined. :-)

McCain is a moderate.

...who supported al-Qaeda terrorists in Kosovo and Albania during the Kosovo intervention under Clinton, allowing them to procure arms, conduct fundraising, and gain U.S. support for their acts of terror against innocent Serbs in Kosovo?

...who authored multiple devastating bills, including amnesty for illegals (McCain-Kennedy), campaign finance "reform" (McCain-Feingold), and cap-and-trade (McCain-Lieberman-Warner), that are decidedly NOT conservative?

...who once called conservatives a bunch of "a**holes"?

...who supported shutting down the terrorist detention facilities at the Gitmo naval station, the same position that was held by those e-e-e-e-vil Dems?

...who took bribes and kickbacks from Charles Keating during the 1980s Savings and Loan crisis in exchange for protecting Keating's financial institution, which was later bailed out by the U.S. taxpayer?

...who joined with John Kerry in the early 1990s to shut down further investigation into the whereabouts of Vietnam POWs and MIAs, effectively throwing them to the wolves in order to "normalize" economic relations between the U.S. and Vietnam?

...who in 2004 not only considered running alongside John Kerry on the Democrat ticket but also endorsed the Democrat Party as "a fine party" and said that he had "no problems with it, in their views and their philosophy"?

...who in 2008 endorsed Obama--calling him "a decent person, a person that you do not have to be scared [of] as president of the United States"--and then threw the election to Obama as he voted "YES!" to a grande-sized Socialist bailout of corrupt New York bankers?

If that's the a-hole you want to defend, by all means, go for it. Your time on FR will most likely be very very short, though.

"Sarah is supporting him and so should conservatives."

I love Sarah. But I'd rather stick my pecker in a blender than support the RINO menace that gave us Zero. He is an abomination and insult to EVERY person who believes in Conservatism, and I will support the person who seeks to defeat him 100%. 28 years in DC is long enough. GO HAYWORTH !

[right way right]

McCain is kind of this eras Bob Dole.

Bob Dole stuck an iron bar in the wheels of progress after the conservative victory in 94.

Clinton should have been impeached!

McCain gives reach-arounds to socialists.....he needs to be unseated. There should be NOOO comprimises on health care! Keep government the hell out!!

[rabscuttle385]

McCain gives reach-arounds to socialists.....he needs to be unseated. There should be NOOO comprimises on health care! Keep government the hell out!!

He doesn't just give reach-arounds to Socialists...he IS a Socialist.

What else do you think that bailout he helped to engineer last fall was?

[TChris]

Clinton should have been impeached!

He WAS impeached. He just wasn't removed from office.

Too many cowards/hypocrites in suits.

[rabscuttle385]

McCain is a moderate.

Oh, I'm sorry, I also forgot to include the parts where he took Soros money and where he stood up in front of a crowd of ACORN and SEIU activists in South Florida in 2006 and told them that they were "what makes America special."

Look on YouTube.

There's ample video and photographic evidence.

McCain is an ACORNista and a Soros stooge just like Obama.

McCain is not the only Republican he constantly demonizes.
Of course I'm going to "demonize" liberals, regardless of what letter follows their name.

The n00b is accidentally correct, we DO demonize so-called 'Republicans' like Linda Murkowski, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Lindsey 'Goober' Graham, Orrin Hatch (who wrote ballads praising Fat Teddy Kennedy and then played them on the piano), former RINO and now 'Rat Senator Arlen Specter, and WHY do we go after liberals like that?

Here's your clue n00b, because they are LIBERAL!, they are:

Republicans In Name Only, get it?!?

He always critisizes Republicans but rarely Democrats.

Is that like supersizing your McDonald's combo? How big is it when you 'criti-size' it? More fries? Extra cheese?

Are you suggesting that McCain is a Republican?

The n00b has no idea. If someone has an (R) after their name, that makes them a Republican. If Roman Polanski announced he was a Republican, trolls like that would be right there to demand that everyone support him.

He is an angry purist who is trying to turn the board against all those who do not fit his narrow-minded definition of conservative.

Rabscuttle385 deals in FACTS, you obviously deal with emotions, 'feelings' ("oh whoa, whoa, 'feeeeeeeelings'"), and bombast. So what is YOUR definition of 'conservative', ok n00b? Let's hear you define what conservatism is.

Little newbie, why don't you take a hike on over to GOP.com where you can apologize for RINOs to your heart's content instead of cluttering up FR, a conservative Web forum.

That's not just a n00b Rabs, I'm calling troll on this one.

SNIFF x2

Make that SNIFF x3.

McCain, pack yer bags.

Conservatives have a choice in TX: Vote Debra Medina.

[Future Snake Eater]

Good God. Do you believe this crap you write? Given your screen name, I’d say you’re throwing everything you have behind McCain b/c Sarah is campaigning for him. That’s NOT a good reason.

Political endorsements are political endorsements, not a substitute for using your head.

[lonevoice]

You might think someone with that screen name would know how to spell Sarah. I’d sure think so.

[mkjessup]

RE"Tea Party activists are rightly outraged by Palin’s decision to campaign for McCain, whose entrenched incumbency and progressive views are anathema to the movement."
Yep, we are!

My tagline says it all, IMHO.

[Sarabaracuda]

I never said I agree with everything he has done, but in the world of politics, one has to make compromises or we will get nowhere. Sarah knows this. I know this. The vast majority of Freepers and conservatives know this. Are we all a-holes too?

Face it, if you purists had your way, the entire membership of the GOP would be able fit inside a phone booth. STRIKE OUT!!!

[LomanBill]

>>his narrow-minded definition of conservative.

 

As opposed to your moral relativism?

 

Is George Washington a conservative American under your definition?  He is under mine.

Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens.

--from President George Washington's farewell Address

Tell us, what are your thoughts on this historical observation by Saul, the Roman?

Rom 1:25-29
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen.

 

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

 

28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.

 

"I KNOW OF BUT ONE CODE OF MORALITY FOR MEN WHETHER ACTING SINGLY OR COLLECTIVELY"

--Thomas Jefferson

 

One Code?  That would presumably be the self-evident Natural Law of the Divine Creator.

 

Now, what is the historically observable self-evident impact upon the social and reproductive fitness exhibited by societies that "normalize" the behaviors referenced in verses 26 and 27 above?

 

It's not as though the abomination of Nature endorsed by Mrs. and Ms. McWeevil hasn't been unleashed before IS IT?  In fact it has afflicted NUMEROUS SOCIETIES (and political parties?) throughout history - WITH THE SAME, PREDICTABLE RESULT.

 

The behavior in question being a demonstrated willingness to contort a societie's moral principles for remunerative, temporary, expediency..... 

 

Quack, Waddle - It IS what it IS.

[mkjessup]

You Palin haters always compare Sarah to a prostitute when she stands on her own. You are a bunch of woman bashers.

Look here n00b, you can take that broad brush of yours and paint a great big yellow L and T on your backside because you are a LIBERAL TROLL and I predict that your days are numbered.

*Ping to #134*

Somebody with your misspelled screenname is giving you a bad name on here...

[Sarabaracuda]

No thankds. Medina is Ron Paul’s candidate. A vote for her is a vote for Hutchinson.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Keep electing cretins like RINO/DIABLO McCain, madam, and I assure you the number of Republicans in Congress under their MIS-leadership could caucus in a phone booth.
