Maybe they are trying to preserve John McCain’s reputation just in case he decides to run again in 2012. LOL.
They made a good point on Fox&Friends just a minute ago - blaming the republican party for trashing Sarah who is trying to decide who they are - Sarah, McCain or Powell - Although it was a democrap that said it - I think it about sums it up. I think we all agree on the answer - if not, then we need to start a Conservative party with all the conservative values and a theme of “Personal Responsibility” - when Sarah said personal responsibility, the Luntz meter hit record levels - but, of course, you never heard it again.
Anyone can do anything they want to as long as they can afford to pay for it.
35 years ago when working 20/7 trying to start a small business I saw the union workers picketing for more money than EEs made. I said when the minority becomes the majority, we’ll all be in trouble - and here we are. (This is due to the fact that responsible tax-paying citizens generally have 1 to 2 childred because that’s all they can afford - while the welfare case have the number that the welfare system will pay for. When I graduated from college and got a great job in 1959, I discovered that had I spent the previous 4 years having illegitimate kids, I’d have been making 50% more.
The “Country First” should have been “McCain First” - had it been country first, he would have swallowed his pride and gone after Rev Wright, changed his public financing, etc..
