He also voted against the extension of the inheritence tax repeal, I believe.

This thread could go on forever.

Lot's of people don't like McCain (D) Arizona.  Given your sign up date and this silly vanity post, I presume your are the same person posting the same drivel over and over recently.

I have never thought McCain was a conservative. Glad you're with me now. You could tell by the way the media lined up with him in 1999 and 2000 that he was more liberal than conservative. Don't forget his meeting last year at his Arizona ranch where he invited Daschole to come and woo him to the leftist party.

It depends on your point of view. If you live in California where everyones politics are extreme left then McCain and Arizona appear to be far to the right.

I live in California. It is not true that EVERYONE here is on the extreme Left. Unfortunately, those of us who are not are drowned out by the Hollywood Left, the black Left, the Mexican Left, the gay Left, the academic Left, and assorted other Leftists. The vast majority of the Left in this state are concentrated in the Los Angeles and San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose areas. The overwhelming majority of the remainder of the state tends to vote Republican and went for George W. over Algore in 2000.

Also unfortunately, there is small number of perpetually disgruntled people on the hard Right who always find some rationale to cast a "protest" vote for one of the minority parties. This type of vote is too small to make much difference in statewide races, but has an impact on a few Congressional races, plus State Senate, Assembly and other down-ballot races.

Oh yeah, I kept that jpg around so I could be a double agent.

McCain is a danger to the Constitution.

However, there have been many posts recently with a "McCain sucks" theme without much substance to them.  For whatever reason they get pulled quickly.  I'm not hitting the button but I wouldn't be surprised if the thread is deleted by the time I try to post this very note!

Should have been put out to pasture after Keating 5.

You are correct and I should not generalize. How very un PC of me. Sorry.

Well, the primary reason for that seems to be sourcing of the articles. The ones I've seen pulled are just that old Scott Fahey crap about McPain not running for reelection in '04.

Fahey's (aka "greatspectacular") PO'ed JimRob so often that whenever one of his "articles" gets posted, it gets pulled as soon as the Admin Mods get ahold of it.

You almost forgot, he's pro-life but believes in every single exception under the sun and opposes overturning roe vs wade, and believed in fetal tissue research. Here's one of those reasons why I hate the ranking system. Awhile ago, McCain had a ACU career ranking of 85%, how the hell is that even remotely possible?
