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.
hahaha!
Yep! Zachary! :^D
Then go right ahead and vote for Obama.
And you underestimate the threat from radical Islam at your peril. The Islamists are indeed fighting to win. That fact alone makes it the most important issue of the election...and beyond.
Frankly, “keeping our Bill of Rights intact and restoring our Constitution to its rightful place” is a straw man in this debate.
McCain’s stance on border security and immigration reform is disturbing to be sure, but it is no different from the current occupant of the White House.
We have not been hit at home since 2001.
John McCain does not have core conservative values that are important to me, therefore I will not vote for him; I will skip that line on the ballot. If you believe this means I hate McCain, then put me on your hate McCain list. Your post is totally hateful, ridiculous, and you use low life language as in “SHUT Your Stinking Trap!” Your need an English course so you can learn to use proper English descriptive words.
McCain is that one little nugget that refuses to get flushed down the toilet.
the Republican nominee
funny that the primary is still weeks away ...
already handed my 'choice' and being told to stfu as well...
is this a great country or what ???
I'll vote for a conservative or 'none of the above REPRESENTS my moral/Constitutional values', thank you very much...
Dagny Taggart for Secretary of Transportation!
I’ll give credit when it is do. My post was restored. Fair is fair. Thank you for bumping!
I never said the others were retards too.
I never said the others weren’t retards too. (my english teacher would be proud now)
Fair enough; I’m just making sure that everybody understands what the stakes are. There’s no point to worrying about the stuff McCain agrees with the Dems on, because we’ll have to fight that no matter who is in office. What’s important is where they differ, and the differences are dramatic and crucial.
I am taking small amounts of WD-40 each day so that my elbow will be limber enough to overcome my detestation factor and pull down for McCain in November. And he was in my training squadron in Meridian, Miss. I am still wondering what they fed him in North Vietnam.
Or what.
First, AWESOME and thanks for serving. What did you drive?
Second, was that the one where he got his initial training?
No. He was a flight instructor there. I was a student. I met him once, but can’t remember if I ever flew with him. Everyone knew he was son of CINCPAC and had a history of being a questionable pilot not that that mattered much. I was only there maybe 4 to 5 months then on to Texas.
Oh, we had T2A trainers in Meridian. In Texas, we had F-9 Cougars from the Korean War. A-4s(skyhawks) were where I landed.
BTW, you're right about McCain being a little bit shoddy as a pilot, but it appears he pulled his head out of his butt as things went along. As a guy who was a substandard airman at first but later ended up crewing my squadron's flagship jet, I can relate.
Not in the A-4...After a crash at Lemoore NAS I ended up in intelligence work and flying in Army planes in Vietnam as an observer (photography etc). I was lucky as I got shot at but never shot. The two Army pilots I flew with bought the farm after I left and they both had wives and children. Very sad.
