AZ-Sen. 2010: Come Back, John McCain (NYT mourns for the backstabber and RINO McCain)

There goes Senator John McCain, battling mightily for re-election in Arizona, buzzing off into the desert heat to another rally, another news conference, another television sound bite. Wait, you forgot your principles!

He’s telling the world he’ll never support immigration reform until the border is sealed. Now he’s praising Arizona’s Legislature for passing a bill that makes every Latino — citizen or not — a potential criminal defendant. It obligates the police to stop people who look like illegal immigrants and arrest them if they don’t have papers on them. And here he is warning Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly that drivers of cars full of “illegals” are “intentionally causing accidents on the freeway.”

During the 2008 presidential campaign, Mr. McCain did his share of contortions to win over a right-wing base that never trusted him. Now he is fighting for survival against a radio host endorsed by border vigilantes.

But this pandering is tragic for a man who was one of the architects of the humane, comprehensive approach to immigration he has now disowned — threatening a filibuster to prevent its even coming to a vote.

LOL

Every night when I lay in bed I think about how uncomfortable John McCain is and I giggle like a schoolgirl.

All I can do is shake my head. What did they expect now, really?

What is amusing to me is that the NYT could have come out and said that every AZ yokel that opposes McLame is a racist Red Neck deserving the fires of hell and eternal torment by liberal angles - but no they are dumping McLame, as a casually consenting Commie, but not a committed Commie! LOL

Unreal. NY Slimes, WA Po, Soros thorough Daily KOS bogus polling, AZ newspapers and TV stations, slimy Bill O’Reilly and others are pulling out all the stops trying to save amnesty McCain. Sickening,

McCain caused SO much damage to America with McCain Feingold.

[Frantzie]

McCain has always been a stinking mole for the Democrats and a stooge for Soros.

I guess after Keating 5 scandal, McCain became a full fledged saboteur for the Democrats.

“I guess after Keating 5 scandal, McCain became a full fledged saboteur for the Democrats.”
In fact I believe you are Correcto Mundo - and that's given credit where I not so sure it's due - McLame may in fact be a controlled Commie asset, arising from mind control techniques used by Viet Commies during his 4.5 years of torture! Just a suspicion, not a fact that has been proved.

we got WAY TOO many republicans who just say the right thing before the election and then ignore it when they’re elected. Mccain is one of those ppl

Don't forget Palin as well.

[BufordP]

McStain isn’t the NYT’s favorite Repub anymore?

[ThePatriotsFlag]

McCain has not yet committed AGAINST the Wall Street Reform Bill. Write him.

[VRWC For Truth]

Conservatives NEVER MISS at the ballot box. RINOs are TOAST in the November elections. The FRIEND OF MY ENEMY IS MY ENEMY!

[Prokopton]

Don't forget Palin as well.

I don't think you were supposed to say that.

One of the biggest reasons I want to see him beaten is that I can’t stand the thought of the big FU he would give us after he won. I remember when S.P.E.C.T.E.R. won over Toomey last time in PA. He was like, screw all y’all. In fact, it seems like that was when he REALLY turned into Snarlin Arlen.

ACT LIKE A LADY! AND I’LL TREAT’CHA LIKE ONE!

[ichabod1]

I’m still pissed that his nickname “songbird” was covered up during the campaign. Too much of this damn covering up going on. It’s time to wake up in the cold light of dawn and face the truth.

[ichabod1]

If he wins, it’s like a symbol that it’s business as usual for the rino progressives. And then we’d better go shopping for our mao suits and learn to keep our moufs SHET.
