Attn McCain Apologists: Talk all you want!
But he's still a constitution trampling RINO and unless he repeals McCain-Feingold, repudiates amnesty and global warming, drops all support for embryonic stem cell research and stops talking about partnering up with the Democrats and instead swears to fight the evil bastards he won't be getting my support.
You kicked the conservatives to the curb and nominated your RINO, now all you gotta do is get him elected.
However, that shouldn't be all that tough to do. Look what he'll be running against. A corrupt, power hungry Marxist radical feminist control freak or a corrupt, America-hating racist Marxist surrender monkey (oops, can I say "surrender monkey" in this context?). Can't see America going for either of those two useful idiots.
By the way, "change" is a Marxist codeword.
As they say, America deserves better.
Carry on.
P.S.
Or, you can select a kick butt pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-America, pro-gun, pro-drilling, pro-defense, pro-small government, fiscal conservative as your running mate and signal a return to traditional conservatism as the future of the GOP and of America and you will get all the support you need. If she's a moose hunting Alaskan army mom, all the better!
I was being sarcastic.
I think there’s a huge difference between McCain and Democrat #1 or Democrat #2. Neither of them give a damn about the War On Terror, they think it’s an annoyance, or as John Edwards puts it, a “Bumper sticker”.
McCain recognizes the danger of Islamofascism, Obama and Hillary don’t think it’s a big deal. On that basis alone he beats them.
Calling someone a RINO isn't name calling, it's simply shorthand, an acronym.
What great endeavors do
This is a common liberal approach to conservatism. Characterize conservative thought as primitive, then argue from this faulty assertion. Conservative thought doesn't qualify as a "great endeavor."
It is also true that being a Republican, conservative or what have you
Haven't figured it out yet, huh?
Strange how the nitpickers of "diversity" can't tease out the difference between Republicans and conservatives.
And there have been assorted insults (many from this same person) on other threads, but frankly, I'm not about to look all of it up. This is representative of what I hear from CG and several others.
I agree. We haven’t had a good President since Ronald Reagan. We won’t get one this time either.
Let’s see “not good” vs. “abomination”.
Since you put it that way.
So what do you think his plan is for all those nasty terrorist types we expended great time, fortune and blood, to round up and get out of the way down there at Gitmo?
Thank You..
While he might recognize it, it's a pity that like Jorge Bush, he's not serious about winning it.
If he were, he wouldn't be trying to close down GITMO, protesting the use of "torture", encouraging continued violation of our borders and opposing measures to lessen our dependence on foreign oil.
If he were serious about fighting the WOT, he wouldn't support trade policies that effectively diminsh the latitude within which we can act by leaving us open to blackmail by our creditors, e.g. The Chicoms.
If he were serious about fighting the WOT, he would oppose the establishment of a de facto Al-Qai'da base in the heart of eastern Europe, i.e. Kosovo, instead of supporting it.
And if he were serious about fighting the WOT, he'd stop alienating the conservative base, the ones who would have not only voted for him but continued to support our military efforts in the Mid-East and around the world.
"Compromise" seems to be sanctioned by the self-proclaimed intelligentsia only when liberal dogma is deferred to.
Am I mistaken?
On top of that, Most Presidential elections have what is called the "Coat Tail" effect...How many CONSERVATIVE voters do you see pledging undying devotion to John McCain?
Now do you see the effect of John McCain?!
This isn't about McCain! It's about us CONSERVATIVES!, And we've been HAD!
I'm not going to help another RINO! EVER!
So we can add the inability to focus on the argument to your list of qualities. We were talking about the media’s role in McCain’s winning the nomination, not immigration or McCain’s temper. If you can’t dazzle ‘em with brilliance, baffle ‘em with BS. I expected nothing less from you AuntB.
Thanks!
I’m going to vote for McCain....but Fred was my guy, unfortunately not enough people agreed with me.

LOL! I read that too the other day and was going to send her a picture of the opossum I caught in mine two weeks ago.............
Ditto .... and I'll put it in the plebian vernacular as well.
McManiac supporters : KMA, you RINO lovers.
Good luck sir, we will call on your office in Washington next year.
