it is not an idea, rabscuttle, it is REALITY. he has something up his sleeve for us, and most of us are NOT going to like it. (if elected) they will ram it through, just watch. Sarah had better weigh in with THE AMERICAN PEOPLE and try to stop it, on our behalf. This McCain cannot be trusted on amnesty.
Oh AT, you’re no troll. And think about it...aside from Sarah, NOTHING has changed with McShamnesty and IMO, we are fools to think otherwise. We know nothing about where she stands on the issue or if it would matter...the topic has been PURPOSEFULLY avoided, and frankly, if McCain is elected, he will use our supposed ‘vote of confidence’ to move forward with his plans. Sarah’s conservatism will have been successfully ‘used’. When i read headlines telling us now that she’s on board (i.e., has us blindsighted with her double dose of conservatism), McCain is free to set himself aside (further left) of the Republican party.
“I have a bad feeling that, behind Sarah Palin’s untarnished conservative skirts, it’s just the same ol’ RINO Juan Sidney McQueeg hiding there.”
I don’t understand why anyone would expect otherwise? McCain is who he is and he hasn’t changed one iota...he’s just using Palin as a conservative diversion and unfortunately, it worked. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a huge, huge leap to hope that she has any influence on the issue...especially when we don’t even know where she stands. What’s her definition of amnesty?
The only thing I would like to see "vetted" when it comes to the FABULOUS Sarah Palin, is her clear cut position, one way or another, on the Kennedy-McCain Comprehensive Immigration Reform Bill of 2007 and whether she would have supported or opposed it as the tie-breaking vote in the United States Senate as Vice President. Amidst the euphoria, can we put the kool-aid down, fellow Americans, just long enough to ask this important question?
And today, whether she supports the revised 2008 GOP Platform on Illegal Immigration to it's fullest, or whether she has flexibility on the issue of "Amnesty" and "Bridge to Citizenship"?
Obama needs no more vetting in my book. He is hopeless.
Seriously, folks, when can we hear specifically on this issue out of the Vice Presidential Candidate's campaign camp and policy advisors? It is not being addressed yet if I am not mistaken, and it was the hottest issue, in fact still is (A MAJOR NATIONAL SECURITY, COUNTRY-FIRST ISSUE) in the beginning of the GOP primaries. For what reason is it now off the table?
