Did he once say “I was wrong” ??
Mr. McCain ‘entertained’ the idea of being Kerry’s running mate. He is pro-amnesty, pro cap and trade, and then there’s the McCain Feingold crap. Please Arizona voters wake up and send this man into retirement.
WHAT CONSERVATISM?
BOOK: The Real McCain: Why Conservatives Dont Trust McCain - And Why Independents Shouldn’t
http://www.amazon.com/Real-McCain-Conservatives-Independents- Shouldnt/dp/0979482291/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1221912231&sr=8- 1
Book Description
Thinking about voting for McCain? Read this book. Cliff Schecter’s hard-hitting profile explores the gap between the public record of Senator John McCain and his media image. Drawing on a range of sources and adding his unique perspective and humor, Schecter guides the reader though McCain’s long history of expedient flip-flops—especially on his signature issues of national security and campaign finance reform.
Far from a straight-talking maverick, McCain emerges as a temperamental political chameleon who will do or say virtually anything to become president of the United States. On issue after issue—including the invasion and occupation of Iraq, torture, abortion, and gay rights—The Real McCain reveals a politician who started as a Goldwater Republican, experienced a brief period after sanity after his loss to George W. Bush in 2000, and began pandering to the very groups he challenged after deciding to run again in 2008.
From the Back Cover
Cliff Schecter provides us with some real “straight talk” about John McCain.
Paul Hackett Major, USMCR
defends it??? I’m amazed that he could find it.
I don’t understand. He’s growing rare birds on his property?
What Conservatism?
We have nothing to fear with Barack Obama in the White House John McCain, October 2008 during lame Presidential campaign (he only fights hard against conservatives)
My friend; we are united in our opposition to conservatives
I have personal questions in regards to your positions. You have at times advocated cap and trade amnesty, and the McCain-Feingold Bill made it illegal for you to publicize the voting record of an elected official within sixty days, which seemed to me, to be the biggest assault on political free speech in the history of this country.
How dare you attack me! Im a maverick conservative dammit!
Very true, as long as the "conservative" was named Teddy Kennedy.
He'd be better at attacking Republicans and Conservatives. Nobody does that better than John McCain.
FLUSH THE JOHN!
(to the tune of Frankie & Johnny)
Johnny and Teddy were Senators
On opposite sides of the aisle
They got together and drafted a bill
Guaranteed to make illegals smile
Amnesty was their game and they had no shame
Johnny and Senator Feingold
Gave campaign finance a try
But then the highest court in the land
Said the 1st amendment must apply
Gotta play by the rules now Johnny looks like a fool
Johnny and Mr. Obama
They both agree Gitmo should close
But bringing terrorists into the USA
Is a plan that we oppose
No, they dont belong and Johnnys got it all wrong
Now Johnny and Senator Lieberman
Got together on cap and trade
Anemic hands across the aisle
Gonna send the country to its grave
Its time to let him know old Johnnys gotta go
Johnny believes Global Warming
Limousine Liberals and all
Congressional junkets to Copenhagen
Everybodys havin a ball
Just ask Al Gore - Johnny knows the score
S & L Man Charlie Keating
He came to Johnny one day
Said the government boys are sniffing around
How much to make em go away?
Did Johnny take a bribe to join the Keating 5?
Now fast-forward 20 years later
Banks are in trouble again
Johnny says, Lets bail em out
Its just a trillion or maybe ten.
Lets put some wind in their sails cause theyre too big to fail.
We know theres oil in Alaska
Drilling wont cause any harm
But Johnny agrees with the tree-hugging geeks
Gas is gonna cost a leg and an arm
Johnny why cant you see whats good for you and me?
Now everyone knows about ACORN
They get lots of taxpayers dough
Prostitution rings and voter fraud
And home loans to any old schmoe
No matter ACORNs crimes Johnny thinks theyre just fine
Were tired of hearin your flip-flops
Were tired of hearin your lies
You may think were all dummies but you cant
Pull the wool over our eyes
Youre careers hit a snag - so start packin your bags
Cause Johnny, youve worn out your welcome
Its time to bid DC goodbye
Go write a book or learn to cook
And eat a little humble pie
Just ask Sheriff Joe he says you gotta go
Yeah, go Johnny, go its time to hit the road.
Good-bye
MUST SEE!! The Flush the John Song has gone viral and is on YOU TUBE!

ARRRRR!
If I lived in AZ I would vote against this RINO as often as I could. Resign already, you decrepit fool.
Based on the article, McCain never even answered the points that were being made. In response to McCain-Feingold, cap and trade, and immigration amnesty, McCain claimed he was a fiscal conservative opposed to earmarks. McCain-Feingold (suppression of free speech), cap and trade (MASSIVE government power seizure and tax increase), and immigration amnesty (fiscally insane policy intended to destroy small government conservatives politically), AND McCain replies he’s solid on EARMARKS!?!
This would be laughable if there wasn’t a chance McCain will fool the people in Arizona again.
stephenjohnbanker: “The little POS changed the subject.”
You’re right. Based on the article, he never directly addressed any of the points made by the questioners. He’s a typical incumbent who needs to obfuscate his past positions to fool enough people to re-elect him.
He claims he’s good on the border. Here are two good questions for him:
Senator McJerk, how will you determine when the border is secure? Exactly who or what decides?
Senator McJerk, once the border is secure, what will you do with the illegal aliens who are already here?
I never had a moment, not on the worst Obama day, where I wished McCain was President. Republicans deserved to lose in 2008, especially with McCain. Democrats won in 2008 simply because they had been out of power for so long and Republicans were bad not because they offered anything. Thinking that Republicans will win elections forever no matter how bad they are is dreaming.
At least now we have Republicans opposing democrats pushing socialism. We sure as hell wouldnt have had that if McCain won. McCain would be rounding up Republican votes and getting the blame for everything bad. Democrats are only seen as bad now with the voters because McCain lost.
Senator John McCain’s record as a staunch conservative
BWAHJAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAA
“I am a proud Ronald Reagan conservative.”
Oh Brother!
What would McCain be doing differently than Obama?
McCain has his faults - and they are many, not few - but above all, he probably would not have pushed for universal healthcare. He definitely has that over Obama.
