A traitor? A traitor to whom? The republicans? I am a c-o-n-s-e-r-v-a-t-i-v-e. This is still a "conservative" message board isn't it? Thought so. The republicans have sold us out; you just don't realize it yet. Where taxes are concerned, I'll take that up by encouraging our congressional members to gridlock liberal spending initiatives from the liberal POTUS whether that liberal POTUS be McCain, Obama, or Clinton.

"we should find out who all you traitors are and make you pony up"

Grow up.

Uh, grow up? As a mature adult, I recognize that life doesn’t always work out perfectly like you apparently do. If this were Heaven, then maybe it would be so, I live in the real world and make real choices based on actual, real options that are available. And if you are a true conservative, you’ll take a gander at what the Democrats are going to do to this country if they get into the White House and you’ll vote for McCain.

I have to say this, even though it’s going to get long-winded here. Back during the 2nd election for “W,” there was a huge pastor’s conference held in Southern California. A pastor from Uzbekestan came and spoke before the group; he was talking about life in Uzbekestan and how it would radically change if Bush were not elected. That’s because Bush made a lot of people nervous - they knew he wouldn’t just try to “dialogue” with everyone all the time. Listening to Obama AND Hillary, I keep hearing how they are going to do all this stuff that’s going to make everyone love, love, love the U.S. They say everything but the “lion shall lie down with the lamb.” I know from talking to many people that are missionaries in some of these chaotic and distressed places that the person occupying the position of President of the U.S. can make others feel more or less emboldened. Because Hillary and Obama are both on the left, the terrorists and other America haters are going to feel far more emboldened. In fact, I am going to go so far as to make a prediction - if either Obama or Hillary make it, travel is going to become a nightmare - I think there will be many, many more suicide bombings, attempts made here, and, most certainly, abroad. I AM a conservative, but more importantly, I AM a patriot, and I love my country, and THIS is why I will vote for McCain. “Conservativism” is a means to an end for me - it is a values system that will, in my humble opinion, provide us with the best hope we have for keeping us safe and secure.

If you are planning on staying home this November and stewing in your self-righteous, conservative, juices, I hope you will rethink this by then.
