Attn McCain Haters: SHUT Your Stinking TRAP! (Vanity)

By now, most McCain haters will have already skipped down to the comments section to post their expletives and tell me how it’s a free country and they have a 1st Amendment right, etc. to yammer on and on about how bad McCain sucks, totally missing the point of my post, again. But I’m here to tell you, in this free country, that in my opinion, you should SHUT YOUR STINKIN TRAP! To all you ingrates, rageaholics, and self-absorbed punks, WE KNOW YOU HATE MCCAIN. You can give yourself a rest now and stop posting on every single thread the same exact comments. I’m not going to name names, but I will if I have to. I think we all know by now who I’m talking about. The folks who post the same pictures and the same comments on EVERY SINGLE THREAD. We got it. You aren’t voting for McCain. Fine. Time to move on. Yes, that’s my opinion. You have had enough time to accept the reality that John Sidney McCain III, WAR HERO, is the Republican nominee. Some folks on FR have used this time to learn more about Johnny, realize that he isn’t as bad as they thought, grow up, act like adults, and get in gear to vote for him. Some of you have decided not only to beat your collective dead horse everyday, banging out the same tiresome gripes about McCain on every thread, but you’ve also gotten increasingly VITRIOLIC. I’m talking about the following trash:

1. Saying McCain isn’t really a war hero because (insert stupid lie here.)

2. Declaring that McCain urged the U.S. government to leave other POWs back in Vietnam (for what reason would he do this exactly? Don’t bother, I don’t want to hear your lies anymore.)

3. Insulting other FR posters who like or support Johnny by using profanity, vulgarity, and name calling. YOU ARE DIMINISHING FR with your hostile posts—this kind of stuff belongs on low rent leftie sites like DU, or Daily Kos, not FREE REPUBLIC, the shining star of conservative websites.

4. AND FINALLY, the filthiest load in the McCain Haters’ verbal trebuchet: wishing, hoping or praying that John Sidney McCain III would come to some misfortune which would prevent him from living to be President. THIS IS BY FAR THE MOST DISGUSTING. How can you wish that a decent, G-d fearing man who suffered and sacrificed out of love for this country, who, BY THE GRACE OF G-D, survived five years of torture and imprisonment only to return to service in the military—how could you wish him anything but a long, long life? Shameful. And don’t DARE try to suggest that you are any better in moral character or principle than the angry liberal scum who wish ill upon President Bush or our troops. If your definition of “conservative” is to rage daily and most repulsively against our next President, then please call me a “right wing Reaganite traditionalist” because I want no part of your scene. I realize that some talk show hosts like Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity don’t like Johnny, but I don’t recall hearing them praying for his untimely demise. No, that is the talk of the dregs of society, not adults who have their act together.

And just a heads up to all the McCain haters: I am ignoring your tirades henceforth. I can’t stop you from posting your garbage, but I certainly don’t have acknowledge it. Basically, the point of posts from people who like Johnny these days is to share daily news: tracking polls, statements he has made, who he is touring with, speeches he has given, leaders he has met with, etc. What is YOUR point? To seek out people to commiserate with? To insult fellow conservatives who’ve decided having a responsible leader in a time of war trumps giving the GOP a spanking? To try and rally others to joins the haters camp?

Are you going to do this for the next several years? If so, the best advice I can give to the non-haters is to wade through the rage and seek out the decent and the productive on FR. Do not waste your time debating the haters, because they seem to thrive on self-righteousness and rage. Try as they might, they have given absolutely no GOOD reason to allow a dem to win the presidency. Their continued daily rantings about why they hate McCain, on EVERY thread about him, only serve to define their insanity.

I seek out those of like mind. G-d Bless John Sidney McCain III.

P.S. McCain haters, please review the link in order to familiarize yourselves with the sound of Skank's voice so you can hear his directive in your head when you are about to post something vile.

Now I understand. You don’t know the language well enough to make a point.

[Mr. Silverback]

What I am is rational. There are three people who have any chance of being inaugurated as President next January, and only one of them is remotely qualified for the job. In that situation, it’s not about politics, ideology or feelings anymore. It’s like having a choice between FDR, Goofy and Daffy Duck. Easy pick.

1. Saying McCain isn’t really a war hero because (insert stupid lie here.)

He got shot down. He was a POW. I could never fly a jet and bail... I could barely jump out of a perfectly good airplane a couple of dozen times without my knees creaking and my back hurting..... I couldn't imagine doing it at a couple of hundred miles per hour. ........ but that doesn't make you a President.

Your history as a legislature shows what kind of EXECUTIVE leader in our republic you might make.

He's been involved in some shady stuff with the Keating scandal. He's voted for limiting free speech in campaign advertising.

He's stated that "Global Warming" needs to be a priority in his term of office.

He's tried to cram through legislation to legalize the masses of future democrat party nipple people.

He's used the "tax cuts for the rich" mantra, which indicates he thinks the money in the country is "the government's" and not the citizen's.

2. Declaring that McCain urged the U.S. government to leave other POWs back in Vietnam (for what reason would he do this exactly? Don’t bother, I don’t want to hear your lies anymore.)

I don't know anything about the POW's. I'm sure that he'd do everything in his power to bring them back. He was a POW and has a unique perspective of the living hell it must have been

3. Insulting other FR posters who like or support Johnny by using profanity, vulgarity, and name calling. YOU ARE DIMINISHING FR with your hostile posts—this kind of stuff belongs on low rent leftie sites like DU, or Daily Kos, not FREE REPUBLIC, the shining star of conservative websites.

I'm not insulting you. I even think that you're right. McCain is going to be the next president. Just without my vote. I'll do what I can to get conservatives elected to legislative branches of government so they can block McCain's liberal initiatives.

AND FINALLY, the filthiest load in the McCain Haters’ verbal trebuchet: wishing, hoping or praying that John Sidney McCain III would come to some misfortune which would prevent him from living to be President.

Heck I don't pray for anybody's death....... OK, maybe a couple of people's death....like every single muzzie on the surface of the earth.... or hmmmmmmm... jag lawyers that prosecute Marines....... and uhhhhh , nevermind. But I'd never wish for McCain to die. He's going to be the next president of the USA

Not polite to tell folks to Shut Yer Yap...but. free country...etc...

Oh yeah, about the posting of pictures............ here ya go

[stentorian conservative]

I am on the fence concerning McCain. This rotten tripe sure doesn't help.

The "shut up unless you agree with me" tactics seldom work with free thinkers.

[jveritas]

You are the man Bob :) Excellent post.

[murphE]

McCain haters... in my opinion, you should SHUT YOUR STINKIN TRAP!

To whom He said: I say to you, that if these shall hold their peace, the stones will cry out. Luke 19:40

[exit82]

Yes, that tagline is a keeper.

BTW, it was nice to see how you and Jeff were able to overcome keyboard limitations and resolve a miscommunication earlier in the thread.

That’s what being a Freeper is all about. Kudos to you both.

I was talking about a specific thread similar to the Day in the Life thread but about McCain.

Since all ‘you people’ bring your hate to almost every thread that is posted here about anything, I thought maybe we could have one thread without you.

I’m just sayin’

[plain talk]

Do the right thing and vote for a real conservative

I will. Compared to Obama or Clinton McCain IS a true conservative. In politics its always relative. Always.

[RKBA Democrat]

“I know the mods have a hate-talk free zone on the Day in the Life and a few others threads. Maybe we could persuade them to do the same for the McCain ping list.”

Now that is the funniest post I’ve seen today! So Free Republic, one of the premier conservative websites on the ‘net, has to set up special threads where conservatives can’t say nasty things about the GOP nominee for President.

If that doesn’t speak tomes about Sen. McCain, nothing does.

[harpo11]

Cinnamon Girl, God Bless You. John ain't all that conservative, but he is our candidate, no matter how angry Rush Limbaugh is about it or how it happened or anyone else who is mad, McCain is the only one running for the office of president who is not a raving lunatic stalinist.

[exit82]

Well, Cinnamon Girl, my barrel of monkeys was empty tonight, and it looked to be a dull evening.

Then, I chanced on your thread.

In spite of your broadside against those who disagree with you on John McCain, with yours truly guilty as charged, you did manage to create what will become a classic Freeper thread.

A “how-not-to-win-friends-and-influence-people” thread, but a classic nonetheless.

[frankiep]

Completely agree, but you are wasting your time. The ‘principled conservatives’ don’t appear to have any problems whatsoever enabling either one of the Marxists on the dem side to win the White House because they feel that doing so will somehow magically help conservatism. Nevermind that this will mean dem control of the White House and Congress and that the damage that they WILL do to the country will be irreparable. Nevermind that we are in a war for our national survival and that the Marxist nominees have made it abundantly clear that they WILL surrender the first chance they get. Nevermind that the only realistic alternative to McCain is another corrupt, embarrassing, and criminal Clinton administration, or an administration of a racist, completely inexperienced, religion of peace apologist who is ashamed of this country.
Save your breath because sujecting the country to this crap is apparently the ‘principled’ thing to do to some people.

[misterrob]

He may have used that language but he wasn't wrong by opposing revenue cuts without the expense reductions. El Jefe Jorge and the rest of the pubs layered on a few more trillion in debt for us. Even holding the line on spending would have gotten us back in the black.

We won't talk about the administration's screwing the pooch in Iraq from late in 2003 onward that not only cost us extra soldiers and marines lives but allowed the dems to make a huge comeback in 2006. McCain was actually in favor of more troops on the ground long before Bush took his head out of his ass.

I don't like McCain but too many people are willing to put democrats in the WH after having handed them the Senate and House in the 2006 election. He may not be a stellar conservative but he's going to be better than Hillary/Obama. I don't want either of those two asshats in the Oval Office in the nex4 4 years when we need to tie down Iraq then deal with Syria and Iran.

Your comments are made with admirable passion and speak to the TRUTH.

Cynicism is a prime tool of those who can only attempt to appear sophisticated and informed. And cynicism is one of the worst sins.

Some people on this site mew, “Yes, McCain has a good war record, but......”

No, he doesn’t just have a “good war record”.

He and his fellow prisoners UPHELD the HONOR of America and of EVERYONE in it - including progenitors and descendants.

And, yes, including even the anonymous keyboard warriors on this site and other sites whose anonymity and technological toys enable them to casually slander good people, many of whose lives have gone to making possible the liberty of these very unfortunates.

By all means, criticize McCain’s policies, his governmental record. But do it dispassionately and accurately. Else be seen as nothing more than a coward. McCain’s sins are better known to him than to us; and all of us - everyone - will be similarly sorted out not far down the line.

[Mr. Silverback]

Maybe they have their own candidate

there have been a few threads about that, but all I heard was pocketa-pocketa-pocketa. :-)

[sitetest]

Dear Blood of Tyrants,

“We don’t care that you are not voting for him.”

Baloney.

“But for once could you do something other than trash McCain.”

I don't post much about Mr. McCain, so I don't know why you're addressing your rant at me. However, for those who DO trash him, well, there's just so much with which to trash him!

“Something like tell us why we should vote for YOUR candidate.”

I haven't decided whether or not I'll vote for the sludge.

But the jackass post that starts this thread doesn't exactly move me in Mr. McCain's direction.

LOL.

Since all ‘you people’ bring your hate to almost every thread that is posted here about anything, I thought maybe we could have one thread without you.

This is not a "day in the life" or a "pray for Bush" thread, it's a challenge to anyone who disagrees with McCain and his supporters. I'll vote for McCain but I will defend the right of anyone to criticize him.
