J.D. Hayworth absent from GOP unity event
Politico ^ | 2010-08-28 | Kasie Hunt

PHOENIX—An ebullient John McCain celebrated his resounding GOP Senate primary win with Gov. Jan Brewer, Sen. Jon Kyl and the state’s Republican congressional delegation at a unity fundraiser Friday night.

Conspicuously absent: former Rep. J.D. Hayworth, whom McCain soundly defeated Tuesday following a bitter and acrimonious campaign.

Organizers said he received an invitation to the event, just as others losing candidates did, but Hayworth claims the opposite.

“I never received an invitation – nothing ever crossed my desk,” the former six-term congressman told POLITICO Saturday.

Right, that’s why you go after rab every time he posts a thread about McCain, or JD. I learned a long time ago to watch what people do, not what they say.

You say rehabilitate. I say corral. My word is much more limited; yours is way more optimistic.

He doesn’t need to be rehabilitated to be controlled. I think he is subject to control, for many reasons.

Oh please, if you actually think McCain will return her favors you are nuts. He specializes in stabbing people in the back. Notice how "his people" attacked Sarah and he just had no control over anything they did. No, he can't be controlled or corraled. He will stab Sarah in the back just has he has been stabbing republicans in the back for decades.

If Sarah believes otherwise, then perhaps Tina Fey was doing a better impression of Sarah than any of us realized.

Maybe we should elect you. You seem to have a full grasp of everything.

I have a full grasp of McCain. I've been watching him decimate lives here for decades. I worked on the audit of Charles Keating and know about McCain's full involvement. I had a friend who was told "your husband is dead, get over it" by McCain when she was trying to get him to do something about the POW/MIAs. I lost an elderly neighbor who killed herself 6 months after being raped and robbed by an illegal while McCain was running all over calling us bigots and telling us we would never take a job picking lettuce. I guess the fact that some of us helped our parents put food on the table by picking veggies at the Jacobs Farms right here in Phoenix means nothing to a man who never worked a day in his life in the private sector.

So yes, you're right, I do have a grasp of everything pertaining to McCain.

To: curth

Curth, you have described the problem rather accurately. But rather than rescuing your damsel in distress, you have properly condemned everyone who tried to make the case that John McCain deserved to return to his position in the U. S. Senate.

You have not absolved anyone. You have merely documented everyone that is now suspect for backing a Leftist like McCain for office in Washington, D.C.

Yes, the problem is that widespread. And that’s why many of us are abandoning the Republican party.

I’ve spent over forty years of my life supporting Conservatism. I spent those years in the Republican party only to watch it drift further left until it now can back the likes of John McCain, a bottom feeding fellow traveler of the worst of the worst not only in Washington, D. C., but globally.

It’s with no pleasure that I address this in these terms. And yet, as a Conservative, I am compelled to.

I will never endorse a fellow traveler of John McCain.

Curth, take a look at this. Let me know how far down you have to read before you begin to realize John McCain shares almost nothing in common with your political views.

If you don’t come to that realization, then you’ve probably landed on the wrong forum.

McCain is a scumbag. There’s no doubt about it. I’m sorry to hear about your friends and neighbors.

If McCain IS part of the Tea Party, as Palin claimed, then the Tea Party is worthless.

If McCain IS NOT part of the Tea Party, then Palin is a bold-faced liar.

Take your pick, Palin supporters,

How moronic...these aren't the only conclusions to be drawn from the scenarios you've presented. Did they teach logic at your college? LOL.

but no matter what you choose, the end result is pretty damn ugly. And no amount of lipstick is going to make the pig look less like a pig, although I do hear that Kool-Aid works.

Who uses Barack Obama's exact imagery to disparage Sarah Palin? Liberals, Democrats, Socialists, Communists, Progressives, Leftists, Fascists and Morons of all stripes.

Identify yourself.

My expectation is McCain goes back to old ways and maybe retires after this term. Once he decides to retire he is bullet proof and can do whatever he wants.

I don’t think that McCain is part of the Tea Party.

In which case Palin is a liar.

I think it was a shot across the bow remark from Palin.

Doesn't change the fact that she lied on live television.

She's still more conservative than the other potential GOP presidential candidates.

Sure, and Hillary may be more conservative than 0bama. Does that mean we should all line up to cheerlead for her?

Did 0bama trademark the use of the term "lipstick on a pig"?

No, I think not.

every day about other FReepers?

First of all, that would be 1%er FReepers. Like your stoopid little posse.

Bitter, malevolent, petty, and virulent.

And yes, the posse deserves to be called out, cause they're a bunch of losers.

All day? You think I post all day like you? Your pathetic life may persuade you to think that's a good idea, but sorry.........some of us have a life, and we don't need to buy it........

"STUPIDGONEBONKERS"

LOLOLOL

"lipstick on a pig"

Hey, it's hard not to notice you're good at quoting the lib lines, you spout their talking points all the time Mr Paul bot.

I think you do it more than McCain, which is quite a self inflicted slur.

Name the prominent people who have used the imagery of "lipstick on a pig" to disparage Sarah Palin.

Thanks in advance.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the owner of this site a big Palin supporter?

I don't see anyone calling him a "worshipper" and saying she's a pig to his face.

You'd think, since their political views are so very different from the owner of this site, that they'd just leave and find a forum where they agree with the general politics of it.

Very strange...one might infer that they are here only to disrupt, in a trollish way.

I'm not going to call you stupid even though you deserve it more than anyone on this board. Really. I'm not.
