Well, it sounds like he told YOU! Now, I've got a question for you: Do you let Rush Limbaugh do all your thinking for you? While I don't agree with Sen. McCain on some of his 2nd Amendment philosophy, he is a bonafide hero who didn't shirk his military duty when his nation. Rush Limbaugh, on the other hand, is no better than Bill Clinton in that regard! John McCain is trying his best to clean up our dirty electorial system; Rush Limbaugh is trying his best to cater to the special interests and politicians that keep him in speech engagement$!

Meandog. I could be like Senator McCain and just not dignify your question. But, I won't...

Look, I think I asked a legitimate question of the Senator about the language in the bill. I was respectful of him and was not accusatory. He answered my question about the internet and that could have been it. But no, he made it sound like someone who is actually reading the bill and trying to understand it, is somehow only searching for a way to discredit him. Heck, I didn't even refer to McCain-Feingold. I quoted from Shays-Meehan.

As for Rush Limbaugh, no, I don't let him do all my thinking for me and I truly don't see where Limbaugh's or McCain's military record has a thing to do with this issue. I have been against this legislation for a long time - mostly because of the things I've learned about the bill. I'd like to see more respect for the Constitution from my elected officials, wouldn't you??????

McCain is no “hero”. He was a POW.

He suffered, but the NVA knew his old man was an admiral. The term “hero” is reserved for uncommon valor in combat.

McCain is a bitter man. He hates Bush and will do his best to scuttle the Republican party.

I believe he will run against Bush in the 2004 primary. The jerk doesn't have enough brains to know he's left-over pizza.

Why won't McCain be honest? I'll tell you why, because if he was America would know him for what he is. A vindictive man who is being consumed by hate.

He knows, I know and you should know that this bill prevents the NRA, Pro Lifers, the Sierra Club, Veterans of Foreign Wars, the American Legion and any other organization from exercising their first amendment rights in the last 60 days of an election when people actually pay attention.

Find another hero, I would suggest Sam Johnston from Texas.

"...o who didn't shirk his military duty when his nation. Rush Limbaugh, on the other hand, is no better than Bill Clinton in that regard! John..."

What ever you do, don't let facts get in your way.

McCain has a VERY questionable POW record. A number of conflicting reports are out. Limbaugh had a physical deferrment and has never been coy about discussing it. Klinton OTOH, stated he "dispised the military" and curried favors to avoid the draft. This includes lies and fraudulent statements. Next fable?...........

When I see McCain, I think of the movie "Manchurian Candidate"; ie, brainwashed by the communists.
