McCain flip flops more then Romney! 1) ANWR drilling - McCain voted Yes in 2000, to preserve budget for ANWR oil drilling. - FLIP FLOP - Then he voted against drilling in ANWR 4 times (2002, 2003 twice, and 2005), even on national security grounds. At least when Mitt Flips, he flips in our direction.
2) ABORTION - McCain in 2000 said he would not overturn Roe v. Wade, "In the short term or the long term." -FLIP FLOP- In 2007, he's in favor (like Mitt) over overturning Roe v. Wade. NOTE: McCain's been very consistent in supporting stem cell research. Nice to know he's creating the aborted baby demand while against aborting babies.
3) 2nd Amendment - Back in 1999, McCain supported a ban on certain assault weapons, a ban on cheap guns; required safety locks for gun show checks. Saw guns as a "problem" along with violent video games. -FLIP FLOP- Now in 2007, opposes any ban on assault weapons and ammo. I'm not making this up.
4) Expanded Health Insurance - McCain in 1999: Expand health insurance to 11 million uninsured children. -FLIP FLOP- Now: Opposes universal Health Care.
5) McCain the Hawk - In 1999: Voted YES to round after round of military base closures, and stance was to use force only for America's vital interests. -FLIP FLOP- 2006: Fully supports Bush Doctrine of preemptive war.
6) Amnesty - McCain Lie: "I never supported Amnesty" (Jan 2006.) FactCheck: Yes, he has, and even explicitly used the word "amnesty" in the past. (May 2007) P.S. McCain also wanted to change the rules barring immigrants from running for President. (May 2007)
7) McCain's grasp of the Economy - FactCheck: Said--then denied--he needed economics education. (Jan 2008)

You McCain supporters are willfully blind. |

McVain has proven to be the "pandering" king, flipping and flopping in primary mid-stream, but media passes on tagging him while "news" sound bite after sound bite tagging Romney for decades old positional changes. McCain outright LIES about Romney's positions twisting Romney's statements to resemble pretzels; the medis how so gently challenged McVain, but the old loon ignored everyone (he's going to make one scary POTUS) and pressed on with his LIES anyway. NO apologies for "war hero", McVain, he's OWED and beyond reproach, in his own twisted mind. McVain has made a mockery of his own campaign finance reforms passed to assist him (he firmly believed) gain the GOP nomination and Presidency, but more absent minding "news" reporting in MSM land. Yet, I hear that he is beating Romeny on the character issue! What Character? McVain is a self-serving Washington weasel of the worst sort! Republicans MUST be lemmings after all. SAD> |

I’ve been writing for the past few days about my complete disillusionment with the far-right and their finger-wagging, hyperventilation that Republicans and “true” conservatives must vote for Mitt Romney, for no other reason, apparently than because he is not John McCain.
There has been some really shameful demagoguery against McCain from people who ordinarily would show some respect for a man who spent 6 years in a VietCong POW camp, too, which to my way of thinking says many more negative things about the sign-holders and aspersion-casters than it does about McCain.
UPDATE: Here is an except from the link below - the statement of a fellow POW of McCain’s who does not support him politically:
A friend, whom I know to be reliable, was across the hall and one door down, from McCain’s cell when McCain was first captured. He has told me that he saw Communist officers enter the cell where the wounded John McCain lay, incapacitated. He heard them offer McCain early release and heard John answer that he would go home when we all go home. He heard the voices of the officers rising until they were shouting angrily at McCain and threatening him. This was followed by screams of agony from John McCain, and a stream of obscenities from him. He could not see what they did to him and I never heard from John McCain what it was. This does not sound like a collaborator.
The man has a son in Iraq and one at Annapolis - he is undoubtedly a Patriot. To call him a “Benedict Arnold” as these people do is disgusting and out -of-line. It is, more than anything, what I find disturbing about the excesses of the far-right.

One more example of McStraight-Talk. He has no integrity, no values, nor principles. I am one veteran who will never forgive him for letting the enemy in at the gate, shirking his constitutional oath, while I bled on the battlefield in Iraq. |

saving the country from Romney, at least that is what the Rombots and their leader believe. Although their repititiveness becomes quite boring, occasionally they are good for a laugh.
Hey Rombots, did you hear Huckabee is to receive patriot of the year for knocking Romney out of the race? Huckabee the conservative choice for president!!!
Romney, a record designed to give conservatives nightmares. That is right. Romney's record is more liberal than any Republican and is only slightly to the right of Billary and Hussein. |

The Stupid Party
The RNC wants an amnesty candidate.
Don't vote for one.
Another amnesty will result in Democrat majorities for decades, or until they are supplanted by the La Raza Party, why doesn't the RNC know that? How stupid do you have to be to import voters for the opposition at the same time you alienate your own voters? Nominating any of the amnesty supporters is a losing proposition, we will not support them. If the GOP intends to surrender our sovereignty and abandon the rule of law, they will find in November 2008, that they still have their big money/cheap labor donors, but they do not have voters. GOP-RIP |
