Sickening and sad. For backing McCain, she is no better than him.
You do know, don’t you, that those ratings are all a big lie because the Senators and Representatives all trade votes so they can pass the bills and then go home and lie to the voters.
They trade votes like kids trade baseball cards.
You lost your country in 2008 plus 2006 thanks to McCain-Feingold. McCain is for open-borders, the Islamist and the destruction of America. Better to be an elite than a little person. McCain is scum and the people who backed him are scum.
And JD was persona non grata at the Bush White House. He was not liked by Bush and Rove because he consistently opposed their amnesty schemes and supported border enforcement all through W's two terms.
JD was disliked by Beltway insiders, elitists and crony Republicans. I have zero respect for a list of crony Republicans who were closer to JD on the issues, but supported their Washington crony McCain for reelection. That's the sort of thing that continually undermines the Republican party.
Exactly what about my post was inflammatory or childish?
McCain-Feingold F’ed your country good, put the Dems in control in 2006/2008 and elected a muslim. Now the US govt, Pentagon, Military, intel and the rest of the govt are filled with muslims.
Afghan and Iraq are now like a bear penny aracde to pick off American soldiers to the amusement of the King of Saudi Arabia who’s newphew is the largest shareholder in Fox News and 3 other TV networks.
McCain is kissing the Imam’s arse while the Muslim Brotherhood moles in the govt, intel, military leak intel back to Al Queda and the Taliban on how to kill our troops.
Yeah McCain is good - right. Put the clicker down and wake up.
Apparently I was wrong because presidents of both parties have the same opinion, Americans don't count, illegals are the only ones who deserve any companssion. We should all just buck up because we have so much, and if a few of us get killed or raped or robbed, well, that's the breaks.
“That would be Sarah Palin’s shame.”
JD had 6 terms? He puts out a commercial on how to get government handouts (Pork). And the people of Arizona have a choice between two people who they know well. Do they and Palin know something we don’t?
My daughter lives in Az and the choice wasn’t good but at least McCain, to them at least, was the lesser of two evils.
So JD was so bad at even that he failed miserably?
He's whining because he lost, and his ego simply cannot take the blow.
12:01 am Nov 12th.
You'll also notice that many of Sarah's supporters spoke out against her decision to endorse McCain, which destroys the narrative that her supporters are sheep.I spoke out against it and was greatly disappointed by it; though I did recognize her need to endorse him on some level, I felt that she went way over the top in what she had to do.
I am disappointed in JD and his ability to do better in the election, and I say that as a non-Arizonan who sent money twice to his campaign.
I am disappointed in the AZ voters for wanting, above all else, the "recognition" that comes with having such a "famous" Senator. (An FR poster here, a good AZ conservative and worker on the JD campaign, explained that depressing dynamic in great detail.)
I am disappointed in every aspect of the McCain primary win, but now it's over. He won.
I am moving on. I want to survive and I want my country to survive. We have a marxist-muslim in the WH and we need to take back the house and senate in November.
Disappointment is a powerful emotion, but if you get stuck in it you don't get much mileage out of it going forward.
I want to go forward and work with what we've got right now and that means taking back the house in senate in 2010 and taking back the country in 2012.
Your daughter listened to 21 million dollars worth of McCain lies and Palin endorsement. This is where McCain’s been for decades:
1988: Honored by La Raza for opposing official English
McCain attacked Proposition 106, a [AZ] statewide referendum that was being advanced by the so-called English-only movement. McCain told the teachers, “Why would we want to pass some kind of initiative that a significant portion of our population considers an assault on their heritage?”
Because of his position on the English-only initiative and his willingness to fight for a pluralistic American culture, McCain was one of 10 members of congress who were honored by the National Council of La Raza, a nationwide coalition of Hispanic organizations. In a speech at a ceremony in Washington, before an audience of 500, McCain again attacked English-only initiatives.
“The building of our great nation is not the work of immigrants from one or two countries, McCain said, ”Our nation and the English language have done quite well with Chinese spoken in California, German in Pennsylvania, Italian in New York, Swedish in Minnesota, and Spanish throughout the Southwest. I fail to see the cause for alarm now.“

Hmmm... So a hate-filled rant, but nothing to back up your claims. A lot of vitriol spewed there (much like JD - curious!) but rather short on reality and facts, aren’t you?
So did JD have a lower NTU rating than McCain?
Is Kyl (the guy you called a fake conservative) not the 5th most conservative Senator (with a 96.75% lifetime rating) per the American Conservatives Union?
You enjoy being angry and upset and throwing tantrums every time you don’t get exactly what you want? Life must be really disappointing to live that way...
JD was a failure as a Congressman, and a failure as a Senatorial candidate. Maybe the failure resides with JD, not some big conspiracy of “fake conservatives” like DeMint, Kyl, and Palin...
JD is not whining at all. He gave a very gracious consession speech and that’s it. If someone said they invited him and he said they didn’t, I would tend to believe JD. After all, he was the ONLY one who had to nerve to stand against the GOP establishment when they were currying favor with the illegals at the expense of Americans.
People can praise or condemn Bush now, but I think it will be several more years before any reasonably accurate conclusions can be drawn. More than any other, his eight years allowed the illegal alien problem to become an enormous problem. And I don’t think it can even now be predicted whether there is any positive outcome possible in Afghanistan or Iraq, no matter how well our military performs. Culture and religion matter.
But I do know Bush made several of the most galling statements I’ve ever heard from a president, and I also voted for him and generally supported him. But:
1. Family values don’t stop at the Rio Grande.
2. Doing jobs Americans won’t do.
3. I’ll see you at the bill signing.
4. And Laura calling those opposed to Harriet Miers ‘sexist’.
The final chapter is far from being written on the Bush family, and they continue to reveal more about themselves.
You have contempt for JD now because he didn’t lie as well and McCain? And you say JD is whining when all he did was not attend a party... Huh.
I used to be one of his strongest supporters, but I think you are right about the illegal problem and the drug trafficing and violent crime that comes along with them.
So, your daughter favors amnesty for illegal aliens, weak border enforcement, closing Gitmo, considering any enhanced interrogation of terrorists to be torture, favors cap and trade, favored McCain/Feingold, believes barely one-half of one percent of the budget (earmarks) deserves more attention than entitlements.
They're in favor of amnesty and cap and trade. I'm sure Obama appreciates their indirect support of two of the major initiatives he needs to "transform America".
Or alternatively, maybe they believed everything McCain said during this campaign?
