Your post is exactly what I think. We never really had a choice.
Open borders, globalist candidate McCain, was chosen for us. We WERE had.
Fred was never serious. Romney might have been, but he was demonized by Huck and the MSM.
Whole thing was a sham. i take comfort in the fact McCain, Hillary or Obama will never get my vote.
Beautiful painting of your Sweetie cat. =^..^=
Uh, who said they did?
Rush said all this came about because everyone pulled a temper tantrum in 06 and refused to vote. He played a clip of what he said on Oct 18th of 06. He said then that if everyone sat the election out, we would wind up with McCain in 08. I guess getting our way is more important than our country, though.
I can no longer believe a word that comes from Washington in either party.
They fully intend to sell us out.
We have never been in a more dangerous situation. They aren’t even good at hiding it anymore.
Pick up a book by author Taylor Caldwell. She knew this and warned us many years ago. He fiction based on reality has now come to pass. They used to say she was a kook.
How people must joke about how we sheeple are manipulated.
I didn’t see that Bush actually endorsed McCain. He wished him luck but Bush is a gentleman and would do that.
The question everyone is asking is "What now??!!"
I don't know your beliefs and I won't ask them. Those are yours alone and they are personal. - especially if you don't wish to share them on a public forum.
For me, I have thought about this and these bible versus came to mind:
_______________________________________________________________________
Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
"The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
Matthrew 6: 19-24

What Satan meant for evil, God can use for good. Perhaps too many people worship politics and politicians instead of looking to God, and placing their faith in Him.
If I love this world more than God, I am on the wrong the track. This world will always choose the wrong path in the end. If I place my faith in it, I will always be disappointed.
The Left has their Messiah. He is Obama. Don't believe me? Even some in the media cannot ignore this anymore:
Obama: The Democratic Messiah?
Statue of Obama as Messiah by artist David Cordero. He calls the statue "Blessing."
This week, there was an article by ABC News where even liberal reporters were getting uncomfortable. They said Obama's supporters would corner people and tell them to "Come to Obama!" The Senator himself uses increasingly religious terms and rhetoric. Oprah routinely refers to him as "The One!"
I already have a Messiah - He is Jesus Christ. This world can go off half crazed and off a cliff, but my God will forever stand firm.
Perhaps that is what all of this is about. God is reminding us that if we place our faith in this world, in failed politics, and fallen men and women, we will always come away empty.
Very good post. So glad there are still some adults in FR.
Probably the only great Republican we have ever seen or will see in our life. If you think about it, most of our Repub candidates have been alot like McCain.
This is what happens when party politics overrules statesmanship.
Means alot when the candidate is as old and sick as McCain. But I wish him good health and a long life.
People don’t want a real conservative. For all the whining in FR about no one to vote for, I wonder how many of the whiners voted for Keyes. I didn’t but I’m not whining. You work with what you have and work to change things later.
That would have been nice. Now we have a RIB as our nom. Great work people!!!
Whats the difference in Keyes losing or any other candidate losing? Who ever we ran was doomed from the start because for one thing, everyone had their own guy and when he didn’t last, everyone took their ball and went home.
No flaming here.
Thank you for that reminder. =)
This election kind of reminds me of buying a used car. You have 3 choices. You absolutely have to drive one of them. Two of them are positively going to crash and burn. One of them has alot of mechanical problems but will probably limp along for four years and then you get the chance to buy a nice shiny new one.
