He was for the provision before he was against it.

This is too funny! McCain wanted to stifle the Christian Right, but now that James Dobson is opposing him, McCain is changing his mind. What a spineless, two-faced typical politician. McCain should be rejected by anyone who has a sense of self respect.

I'll never vote for him. The man is an opportunist as well as a rank demagogue. He's changing his anti-free speech stand only because the presidential season is near. John McCain cannot be trusted to preserve the liberties of the American people.

He only does it as a matter of momentary expediency.
Once president, he'd probably require bootlicking by everyone not named McCain.

Now that it is McCain's message that needs to get out McCain is all of a sudden a supporter of Freedom of Speech?
Pathetic.

Hmmm ... seems to be a politician without principles ... who'da thunk?
To: neverdem
I'm glad he will oppose this, but it doesn't change my mind about him. He wants the provision, but doesn't find it politically expedient at this time.
He is also still in favor of yet another bureacracy with this ridiculous and pointless Office of Public Integrity (LOL, things are almost always the opposite of what they are named), increased cost to the taxpayer with no benefit at all.

McLame is beginning to see that Conservatives are serious about not supporting him because of his liberal views.

"McCain is considered one of the most authoritative authoritarian voices on ethics- and lobbying-related issues in the Senate."
To: TommyDale
I think you read that wrong - Dobson and McCain are on the same side. However, reading the article is very hard because its written cryptic, as if they author is trying to portray conservatives as being bad for being against this bill which crushes free speech.
