He opposes earmarks and has supported full disclosure of all earmarks...
He supports veterans benefit programs..
He supports the second amendment..
He opposes partial birth abortion..
What else?
He opposes earmarks and has supported full disclosure of all earmarks...
He opposes them TODAY, you mean. Read further, and my point will be obvious.
He supports veterans benefit programs..
You mean like how he supported trying to bring POWs and MIAs back from Vietnam? Or weren't they "veteran" enough?
He supports the second amendment..
He says he does today, but I hope you're aware that in 2001 he was the lead sponsor of an anti-gun show bill, and a second one based on the first which he introduced in 2003. During his presidential run in 2000, he spoke out against small, inexpensive handguns. So with McCain, it all depends on what position serves HIS interests. What will it be this year? What will it be if he takes office?
So much of this McCain's record can be found with a simple google search that I'm surprised more people haven't looked beyond the sound bites.
I’m not playing that game. I am willing to make some compromises in my conservative principles for the greater good. I will do that when I believe that the person on the ballot is a decent human being, even if we have policy disagreements. That is why I was able to vote for Bush 41, Dole, Bush 43 twice and even for Romney in the primary after my first two choices dropped out. They all are, ultimately, good men, even if they are further to the left than I. McCain is not. McCain is every bit as venal, grasping, corrupt and self-serving as any politician alive and a whole lot worse than most. He is wholly unfit, both morally and intellectually, to be POTUS, and if he wins, it will be without my vote.
