Shamnesty John McCain is back in full force: No, he never “got the message”
First, my friends, a reminder of what was printed right here on January 23, 2008:
After spearheading a disastrous, security-undermining illegal alien amnesty bill last year with Teddy Kennedy, “straight-talking” GOP Sen. John McCain claims he has seen the light. In TV appearances, he vows to put immigration enforcement first. On the campaign trail, he offers a perfunctory promise to strengthen border security and emphasizes the need to restore Americans’ trust in their government’s ability to defend the homeland.
“I got the message,” he told voters in South Carolina. “We will secure the borders first.”
But how can McCain cure citizens’ distrust when his own credibility on the issue remains fatally damaged? He doesn’t believe his own election-year spin. And he knows we know it. This is cynicism on steroids with a speedball chaser.
Not all of us have forgotten how the short-fused Arizona senator cursed good-faith opponents in his own party (“F**k you!” and “Chickensh*t” were the choice words he had for Texas GOP Sen. John Cornyn during a spat over enforcement provisions). Not all of us have forgotten that he voted against barring felons from receiving amnesty benefits under his plan. Not all of us have forgotten the underhanded, debate-sabotaging manner in which McCain/Kennedy/Graham/Harry Reid conspired to ram their package down voters’ throats.
His admission of the shamnesty failure is grudging and bitter. While he now tells conservative voters what they want to hear about the need to build the southern border fence, he takes a contemptuous tone toward physical barriers when talking to businessmen. “By the way, I think the fence is least effective,” he told executives in Milwaukee, according to a recent Vanity Fair profile. “But I’ll build the goddamned fence if they want it.” Straight talk? Try hate talk.
For all his supposed, newfound enlightenment about what most Americans want—protection against invasion, commitment to the rule of law, meaningful employer sanctions, an end to sanctuary cities, enforcement-by-attrition plus deportation reform, and an end to special illegal alien benefits that invite more law-breaking–The Maverick remains a Geraldo Rivera Republican. Like the ethnocentric cable TV host who can’t string a sentence about immigration together without drowning in emotional demagoguery, McCain naturally resorts to open-borders platitudes when pressed for enforcement specifics.
And, now, straight from the campaign trail with Arnold “Move Left” Schwarzenegger, McCain has shed every last pretense that he “got the message” from grass-roots immigration enforcement proponents and is back to his full, open-borders shamnesty push. No surprise to any of you. But his complete regression back to the “comprehensive immigration reform” euphemism is a notable milestone.
Also, you don’t need to guess anymore how he would have voted on the Feinstein/Craig illegal alien farmworker amnesty:
Republican presidential candidate John McCain joined Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in calling today for comprehensive immigration reform, including guest worker visas to bring employees to California’s Silicon Valley and the state’s vast agricultural fields.
The two men brought up the issue at McCain’s prompting during a global competitiveness roundtable featuring California technology executives and entrepreneurs.
Asked by Silicon Valley panelists on what he would do to grant more visa for skilled technology workers, McCain broadly advocated the comprehensive immigration reform plan he had backed with Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy in Congress.
The same issue brought McCain intense criticism during the Republican presidential primary from conservatives who assailed him as soft on illegal immigration and an advocate of amnesty.
But today McCain, the now presumptive GOP presidential nominee, said an immigration program is needed that protects America’s borders and national security. While he called for punishing employers who hire illegal immigrants, he also advocated a humane approach that treats illegal workers as “God’s children.”
McCain said they should be allowed to seek legal status in a “humane and comprehensive fashion” through a program “they can count on and trust.”
Responding to a question about so-called H1-B visas for Silicon Valley workers, McCain said: “We have to attract the best and brightest minds. It isn’t just H1-B visas. In our agricultural sector, they can’t find workers as well. We need a temporary agriculture (worker) program.”
Schwarzenegger echoed McCain’s remarks after the Arizona senator asked his opinion on the topic.
“We need to change the system. All this is part of a comprehensive immigration reform. You can’t piecemeal this thing,” Schwarzenegger said.
While the governor said, “securing the border is extremely important” to California he added: “You have to have the courage to do this kind of immigration reform so we can bring people into this country legally.”
Schwarzenegger said he supported a pathway to legal status so that more people can have “legal drivers licenses” and “everyone would have bank accounts…and there would be background checks so that there would be no criminal element in this country.”
Same old, same old about sham background checks.
They’ve learned nothing. Nada. Zippo. How about you?

More from the NYT:
“Senator Kennedy and I tried very hard to get immigration reform, a comprehensive plan, through the Congress of the United States,” he said. “It is a federal responsibility and because of our failure as a federal obligation, we’re seeing all these various conflicts and problems throughout our nation as different towns, cities, counties, whatever they are, implement different policies and different programs which makes things even worse and even more confusing.”
He added: “I believe we have to secure our borders, and I think most Americans agree with that, because it’s a matter of national security. But we must enact comprehensive immigration reform. We must make it a top agenda item if we don’t do it before, and we probably won’t, a little straight talk, as of January 2009.”

I’ve learned I cannot vote for McCain.
Honestly, the more I hear from McCain the more I will not vote for him. He is a Democrat running as a Republican. Maybe when he loses the election it will hit him, but barring a Congressman’s kid being killed by an illegal they will keep trying to shove this down our throat. Call 202-224-2235 and tell McCain your fed up!
The only surprise is that it took him this long to flip flop. But I think he’ll be good for another laugh, when he tries to move to the right again in a few days.
The Forked-Tongue Express on a roll. More visas for tech workers would help us compete globally, more illegal lettuce-pickers will, well, lower the cost of Obama’s arugula. Guess which Juan favors…
There’s no dispute, I’m writing in Newt.
The ARNOLD was the L A S T
LESSER OF TWO EVILS
for whom I will vote.
Does anyone understand why?
The GOP needs to walk away from this guy right now.
I’ve decided:
My new party is the WAR HORSE PARTY!
The image:
The horse and rider in that wounderful aire:
the LEVADE
If no one’s said it before this … it’s time all of you recognize that this election is Triangulation Writ Large … doesn’t matter a tinker’s dadgum who wins November … the money, the power and the ideology behind all three means “They” won the election before there was a vote cast. It’s all the Same Candidate - white black or female, it’s the same candidate, and that isn’t by coincidence.
Yep, no vote for Juan McAMNESTY, no money for RNC. I give to only the candidates of my choosing.
A person who looks you in the eye and lies, says a lot about their real character. doesn’t it?
Arnie is bankrupting CA so he will have a legacy. Wasn’t he sent to stop the bleeding not cause more? Pay more in taxes and Arnie will pretend to control the weather.
PS: I hope Juan chooses Crist as VP, then Florida can be rid of him.
I’m ashamed that I voted for Arnold. Sorry fellow Californians, I didn’t see the wolf in sheep clothing.
PS-I asked for a vote - once before- no votes )-:

Ol’ Juan must be depending on the disenfranchised ‘hillary’ voters to replace us conservatives he keeps poking in the eye. I do not like to use the word never, but I cannot imagine under any circumstance voting for this clown.
Sigh….did anyone really expect anything different?
I began wearing my “We’re Screwed ‘08″ T-shirt today.
I’d like to say it cheered me up, but… it didn’t.
Maybe it’ll make a nice shroud.
His service record aside, this little runt really chaps my a$$ ! WHAT, I am wondering is his angle for sucking up to Mexicans that will probably never register to vote anyway. Be it for a Rep or a Dem. What is he hoping for by selling out our sovereignty ?
Told ya’ so. Did too. Did too.
We’re screwed ‘08
“You can’t piecemeal this thing”
Not only that Ahnuld, you can’t corn meal it either.
Nothing will change. They will get their Mexicans no matter what. All of them are traitors to this country! TRAITORS!!
I will fight tooth and nail against anything they have on the plate.
You sure its our throats they are trying to shove that thing?
One question, do we really need these workers for our farmers to be productive? Because if we need them by all means craft a program that allows people a legal way here.
When I say NEVAH…I mean NEVAH!!!…….This is NO surprise to many of us who saw thru the Mexichurian candidates lies from the Git Go!!! Now he can Git GOING cuz he ain’t gonna win…Most conservatives may have been able to hold their nose and vote for him…BUT expecting them to hold their nose, hold their mouths closed and the seat of their pants at the same time was always far too much to ask……The man …OOPs,.. the DODDERING OLD MAN has always been Anti American and arrogant beyond belief…no wonder he and Ted get along so well…….Can’t wait to see him go down in flames…..Let’s watch Obama implode the country and wake this country up!!!
I’m starting to think that the Mexican Drug lords have pictures of McCain (or his wife) doing drugs.
# 10 tarpon
We Californians have learned our lesson-
No more L O T E
Arizona’s answer to Mike Bloomberg. I’ve been thinking for quite a while that this election may see the lowest percentage of voter turnout in recorded history. The Dems hate each other too much to show, and conservatives don’t have a dog in the fight.
# 21
Ditto!
By the way THIS FOOL is the very reason many Republicans refiled as Independants. Now he hopes to win with the very Independants who switched due to the overwhelming STENCH this man produces…..What a Jackass he and his buddies are!
He’s not sucking up the the illegals so much as sucking up to the agribusinesses and others who employ them. Gotta get that cash from somebody, and conservatives sure aren’t chipping in.
The early voting state’s, don’t cha just love em?
California Statistic:
The actual figure, available from the state Legislative Analyst and the Budget Office, is $11,800 per student.
Hey Ahhnold,(and your buddy McCain too), looks you’ve permanently fallen into the “stuck on stupid” category. Per the California cost per pupil stat above, it will take an illegal immigrant couple an income of $183,000 per year (check the tax code) to pay for ONE of their children to attend
public school (this doesn’t even include health and social services.) Your running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off looking for gimmicks to balance the state budget. Maybe you should get a reality check, or resign.
So, does that make conservatives Children of the Corn.
Felon is a legal status, is it not? So a program to round up illegals and comprehensively grant them felon status should satisfy McCain. Right?
God’s Children my arse. At least one’s down.
Naw, I haven’t learned nothin’. Not even Spanish. Pretty selfish of me, I guess.
Have a good night.
McInsane’s base voters?
SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE, not B. Hussein change but an all new 3 days in 3 months for all primaries.
February- 1/3 of the states
March -1/3 of the states
April -1/3(-1) of the states
…. (or about 20 each by obama math)
These early states, with the lefty lib MSM, are killing us.
Seriously, this has to be changed somehow.
Maybe then we can get a real conservative on the ticket
They’re like cucarachas. For every one you kill, there’s a dozen more you never see.
Can anybody explain to me why these politicians think we need to change the immigation laws???? I know they think they’re “Broken” but how do they know having never enforced the laws?
Juan McAmensty had better stay the hell out of Idaho for next week’s primaries he is going to get a freaking ear full. I wonder if the McCanniacs out for brownie points are getting a huge case of buyer’s remorse. We really are screwed in 08!
Hey Arnold and John how about not giving away our country to foreigners? I would not even pay attention to what ahnuld sez he’s proven, continues to prove that he’s an imbecile. You thought his English was bad well now you can see his understanding of American history is just as bad. I have an idea lets bring in new citizens who don’t want to be citizens give them our jobs our medical care and of course welfare it wouldn’t be America without food stamps. Lets let them be 30 or so percent of the general population and 70 percent of the jail population. Lets let them molest our kids drive drunk live 5 or more families in an apartment and send their money home to, you know, feed their other family down there.
These clowns say that family values don’t stop at the Rio Grande. Oh yeah? Tell me folks would you sneak in to Mexico and then leave your kids there if they kicked you out? Didn’t think so. Sorry to say but the best thing these two could do for America is drop dead. I know that sounds weally mean but it isn’t not to the future generations that these losers are selling out today. Number one reason im getting out of the state is the rise in crime, don’t let them fool you with statistics many of us won’t call the cops anymore. You see they don’t want to upset them by enforcing the law so we have a choice, criminals or cops, cops or criminals. People are being shot on LA freeways the cops in their helicopter got shot at last night. Yes this is the world the authorities have created for all of us so now some who can are making another choice, Iraq or California, California or Iraq?
My great-great-grandfather came to California driving cattle from the east in the mid-1800’s. We have been proud to be Californians for a long time… however; I am now looking to relocate for my retirement to some place that isn’t overrun with Mexicans. I have been researching Southern Oregon and looked up the drawbacks of that locale on the internet and the comments are: “It is beautiful but there are a lot of illegals here now.”
ARGHHHHH I guess the country that my ancestors once knew has been given away.
Thanks a LOT, McAmnesty!
#32 John, yeah, thats a Hell of a voter block to brag about, ain’t it ?
I no longer will allow two words in my house… Democrat and Republican. I will no longer allow three people’s names mentioned… Obama, Clinton and McCain.
Any, I mean any, chance I may have offered to vote for this piece of crap has gone for good. You who worship at the McCain altar. Live with it… I refuse.
You know, I’ve been trying really hard to see John McCain in a positive light. So much so that I was beginning to consider the idea of opening up my wallet.
*Sigh* Screw it. As a Californian, I have come to absolutely loathe Arnold. Ran on the premise to cut spending… HA!
Oh well, I hope their spending sends us bankrupt soon so we can kick them out, similar to how conservatives have been making ground in Europe.
I’ve given the old “but what about the Supremes!” argument a good-faith, hold-my-nose try, but this prove to me beyond any doubt that Senator McAmnesty is more concerned about being seen as the Great Bipartisan Hope than he is about protecting America’s sovereignty. At this point I can honestly say I don’t trust him to choose conservative judges (he might cause someone across the aisle to frown and/or make a very sad face).
I’m writin’ in Mitt as my last hope.
Unless he takes the VP slot, in which case I’m writing in myself.
I also have 450 pounds of wheat in my basement, a generator, and a horse in case we need to get to town.
I came up with this Primary voting plan and I truly think it is the best plan we could have:
Have 3 months for debates, vetting, etc. and then have all State Primaries on the same day, open only to registered voters of a particular party.
Have a ballot that lists the candidates and the order of preference so that when one receives insufficient votes, the vote is then given to the next in preference. That way, nobodies votes go anywhere they don’t belong.
If we did this, we wouldn’t end up with a McCain candidacy!
And all States will count and it won’t be this long drawn-out crap.
Bender - We already ARE bankrupt (Kalifornia). How we’re still functioning is beyond me.
If a 14 BILLION deficit isn’t bankrupt, what is?
No more votes for Ah-nold from me either! Last lesser of two evils I’ll ever vote for!
When I said list the candidates in order of preference I meant the voter does that. Just thought I’d clarify.
Both of these politicians make it very easy to understand the fact that neither one of them gives a good gosh damn what “We the People” mean when we say, NO MEANS NO!
I’m not sure if McCain hates us exactly, but paraphrasing Sally Field: “He doesn’t like us! He really, really doesn’t like us!!”
In terms of domestic policy, since both he and Obama are ignoramuses when it come to economics, I expect both of them to have identical domestic policies, though there may be some timing differences: I would expect Obama to introduce reparations in the first two years of his presidency and McCain to introduce it the last two years — in the vain hope of bribing black voters to vote for him in 2012.
I’ve noticed that pretty much everyone has given up on the “he will appoint conservative judges” rubbish.
As for foreign policy, the two may be coming closer than you think. McCain has already backed far away from his 100 years presence commitment to Iraq to withdrawing all troops by 2013. I guess he presumes that by that year Iran will no longer be a threat. Cue the theme from Fantasy Island.
And the difference from Obama is? It is entirely possible that it will make no difference whatever who is elected in 2008. Are you ready for President McComa?
Yeah, we’re screwed big time.
tarpon, you got it! Don’t believe a word the Washington weasels say! Work for your individual conservatives. The only chance we have to forestall legislative disaster is a firewall in one congressional house, and that is looking more unlikely each day.
Doesn’t surprise me a bit…I smelled something wrong about Arnold the minute he hooked up with Maria Shriver.
Will the last MCCain supporter please turn off the lights?
Keep up the fight on immigration by the way…the fun is about to begin…
There was a real nice article on Bobby Jindal and his possibility for VP I read today.
All I can say is….NO-NO-NO-NO-NO!!!!
The future of the Conservative movement cannot be sullied by the likes of this Repubocrat.
We need to let the libs figure out who is going to Carter this nation for the next four years and in the meantime nuture those who have not lost their way (Paul Ryan, Jindal, etc.) and bring more of their type into the fold.
That means going to cast your votes in November. I’ll write in Mitt most likely (even if he is in the VP slot).
This is the time for a valid third party. This is the time for a real conservative candidate. McCain’s pissed off conservatives. Obama and Clinton have pissed off conservatives. Loony bin candidates have come out of the wood-works like Ron Paul (seriously, someone elected that man?).
The electorate will be seriously fractured this year. I doubt that either major party will be able to stir its base much. McCain leaves Republicans with NOTHING to get excited about, only Dems to vote agains. The Democrats, bless their souless beings, have intentionally inflicted a no-win situation on themselves, and will be faced with either an ethnic or sexist problem before November. This is the time to strike as a coherent, middle-ground, middle-America platform.
We’ve told the Dems that we don’t want their ideas. We’ve told the Republicans to stick with conservative values. Neither party is listening. They’re tuned-out. We need to hit them like a tornado, deny them money, set up our party, and get a real horse into this race. Who’s with me on this idea?
At this point I could care less if it were Mitt Romney running, or Fred Thompson… at least both of them have done actual WORK in their lives. That’s something which CANNOT be said for ANY of the three we’ve got on the national stage right now!
Calling Buckaroo…where are you?
Ugh.. he makes me ill.
We won’t vote for McCain… he’ll take this country to the same place that the Dems will…
let them do it.
I love Romney.. but I want him to wait til 2012 to run again for President.
On May 22nd, 2008 at 7:38 pm, expres12, I hate to break this to you, this is the GOP now, have you not seen it change, without any hope, i mite add.
McCain is as big a liar as Clinton and Obama. The only way I can vote for McCain is to remember just how dangerous and how much damage an Obama presidency would do. I don’t know how our country could recover from 4 years of Obama. Jimmy Carter looks intelligent compared to Obama and Carter’s a supreme idiot.
The marble cake (our elected government)has been blended too much for there to be any distinction. There is no longer a delineation of flavors, as it has all become chocolate. Adding more vanilla batter only makes a lighter chocolate batter. What we need is to start from scratch with a new recipe (a new conservative party!
I urge all of you conservatives to write in the name Tom Tancredo. All of you should stay true to your core beliefs. Spread the gospel to your family and friends. Maybe, with lots of good ole fashioned grassroots democracy, you all may get Tancredo in there. Remember:
Don’t vote for McCain, Don’t vote for McCain, Don’t vote for McCain…..
Juan McShame is not much of a guy for the law is he…how can he take the oath of office without perjuring himself? If he was to win of course, which i see is less likely day by day…every time he opens his mouth is pisses off another conservative, notice i did not say republican, nuf said about that.
I said from the start i will not vote for him, for many reasons, but calling his base names was enuf for me…then i realized his base is the left. I’ll write in somebody, and change my party to the Constitution Party. That’s about where the Repubs’ started and give it another try.
Is this the page where we all call McCain a piece of sh*t? And anyone who doesn’t is called a troll?
Awesome!!
Gee, I really, really, really don’t want to vote for this clown. If hubby wasn’t overseas again but even now I don’t know if I can with this garbage. Does he take us for simpletons? He must, he also must understand that there are a lot of military folks who do believe in the mission and will vote on that because they don’t want either of the other two jack a$$’s running for the job either.
I also don’t want to see Mitt or Bobby Jindal or Michael Steele (heard his name on local radio here in DC for what that’s worth) on the ticket.
God, I hate to say we need to “waste” four years until 2012 but what else is there. The damage the Messiah can do in four years is truly frightening.
Vote for your local conservatives and those at the state level. We need to clean this house out.
I don’t know, Mickey Mouse as a write in candidate is looking better all the time.
right_on, we seem to think along the same lines pretty much, have you read the platform of the Constitutional Party? Their not perfect, but tell which party is, was, surly not the democraps or repukicans.
#60, I guess anyway for you to get a dimocrap into the white house? No one is taking your “advice”. Unfortunately we will all reap what you and your dim friends will sow. Perhaps it’s better if the next prez has a D behind his name. It will make the Carter years seem like a fond memory.
Great job MM. You really want a radical, racist, non-patriot in the White House?
WE know MM, we know. Now what? Vote for H Obama? Or maybe the She Creature, if it somehow gets the Dem nomination. We know McCain is a jerk. We know. Stay home and show HIM maybe? All that would do is show US. Guess what? He ain’t changing one bit.
See, the kind of PC that has rendered tough guys like MM and Ingraham, and Hannity, and all the others incapable of calling B Hussein a racist-when he clearly is- has also created the McCains of our world. And any who dare face up to it are labeled whatever you want to insert here.
We know. Now what? What on earth is the point? If you are trying to hand the White House to a radical, racist, non-patriot, have at it I guess…
I have backed the GOP nominee for nine straight elections, since Nixon in 1972.
I will not vote for John McCain, and I will not vote for my RINO congressman.
Remember the recall election? Gray Davis’ budget deficit was a whopping $35 BILLION… but if anyone has the audacity to consider reducing our spending, its “WHAT WHAT!!? Think of the kids!”
Why don’t city, state and federal government use non-violent inmates to pull lettuces, fruit, etc?
How did we do this before the massive invasion?
How the heck did we end up with McCain? What the heck happened?
Rob #40, i’ live in Orygun, been here 10 yrs..it was a culture shock something you won’t have to deal with coming from Kalifornie, but it is as blue here as anywhere, unless you go east of the Cascades where men are men and the women are damn glad of it.
Cool beans. Gas is already 4.19 where I am, the price of crude is up to what, $130 a barrel? Any chance of this going down anytime soon from the world market lowering demand? … No? And the leading democrat at the big oil inquisition had an opening statement that ‘oil prices rose up blah blah percent since Bush took office - explain yourselves, villians!’ .. so, it’s unlikely to turn around any time soon. I’d love to see Obama blamed for high gas prices by the media for the next 4 years. Sounds like fun.
Only thing is, the mainstream media won’t. Oh well.
rightisright
I have not.
now that’s funny, roflmao
No surprise to me. I knew he was a liar about the issue in the primary and knew we wouldn’t vote for him this Fall because of it.We will go out and support our democratic congressman Brad Ellsworth.Pro-life,pro-gun,anti-illegal immigration with a A- rating from Numbers Usa on illegal immigration.
I know right?
I’m also beginning to think that they are literally AFRAID of the drug lords. I mean…..these people are nuts. I’m sure all of us here know about the total chaos on the border. Murdering, rape, killing the top cops one after another…it’s out of control! Our government officials may be scared sh%tless to do anything about it….and I mean afraid for their personal safety.
just sayin’
This election is presenting two candidates, McCain and Obama, who have little or no sense of the needs and interests of the American people. Both are elitists and both are so disconnected from reality as to be laughable if it weren’t so serious. Frankly, I would prefer to chose from the local telephone book.
The real tragedy will come after the election as the the prospects are for something akin to a Carter Presidency or worse.
This may sound horrible - but I’m hoping he choses Mitt Romney as a running mate, gets sworn in then dies from old age less than three months later.
You mean you can’t be one of “God’s children” back in Mexico where you came from? Is that racist or something?
And we should be able to elect a president, particularly a presumed Republican candidate, that we can “count on and trust.”
There is a way to seek legal status in a humane and comprehensive fashion: it is called getting in the back of the line in your home country and entering this one LEGALLY!
Don’t we deserve what he wants to give foreign invaders?
He is.
We’re screwed ‘08.
Speaking of “Messiah,” I just happen to watching the History Channel the other night, and the subject was “The Anti-Christ.” I got cold chills when the narrator explained that according to biblical text, the Anti-Christ will emerge from the hopelessness that is Europe (the Bible was written before the discovery of America).
He will rise to power on a platform of “change” and “hope”. His personal charisma will sway the masses, and put him into power.
Then, about 2 years into his rule, he begins letting slip his “Messianic” tendencies, and believes the world’s masses should worship him. In 2012, Armaggedon begins.
I’m not a religious nutcase, but this really struck me as coincidental, since that is Obama’s vision.
KOSWORTHY!!!!
Michelle,
We need a website for conservatives to go to and pledge to not vote for McCain unless:
1. Secure borders before discussions of amnesty.
2. Insert your hot button here, and in the next 3 spots.
In other words, we need a citizen’s action to force a McCain pledge on fiveissues we hold dear. As the signatures mount from various websites, the GOP candidate MAY decide he needs his base. It could also be a source of campaign finance for down ticket candidates we like.
Can we just jump ahead to Jan. 20, 2009 and the swearing in of Barry O’Bama and the end of days? I don’t want to endure another 5-1/2 months of this race to the Left. “I’m more liberal!” “No, I’m more liberal!!!” “NO, I AM!!!” “AM NOT!!!” “AM TOO!!!!!!!”
To hell with the RINO and the illegal he rode in on!!!
I am serious-McCain thinks we will all roll over for him in the end-let’s get 10 million people to sign on and see if we can change his mind. We need a seat at the table the way KOS has.
I dislike McCain as much as anyone here, fully realizing that he is Liberal lite and will probably get some form of amnesty law passed, if elected.
And when push finally comes to shove, I’ll vote for him with a sad embarrassment and not a little fear. While holding my nose.
But America simply cannot have Obama as its’ leader. He is too much of an unknown quantity, has too many radical, loose cannon friends, and just bad ideas.
Because there’s this, from Obama:

Ya notice he always says my friends like Hernendez
McCain is arrogant to the core. He’ll never learn anything. No to need when you are always right. “Live and learn” aaaahhh - not in his case.
MCCAIN IS A WEASEL AND NOT THE GARDEN TYPE.
(ZERO POINTS)
I’m willing to go through 4 yrs of Obama NOT to vote for this tool. When the GOP loses to a marxist maybe and maybe then they will realize that they need to become the conservative party again in 2012!
I will be voting for Obama this because all in all it really doesn’t make a difference We’re Screwed!
No.
Or, we can do to the lettuce industry what the steeel and automotive industry did, and let them sink or swim on their own without government assistance.
If GM and Ford got the same deal these agri-crooks get, they’d get paid by the government for building cars. All imported cars would face a 300% tariff. And instead of the UAW, all their employees would be illegal immigrants from Korea and China, with our crooked governments blessing.
You available for 4-8 years?

Now I’m confused. I thought McMoron hated the right wing theocons?
Or is he just pretending to be Christian to get a fig leaf for his traitorous behavior?

Money is the key. If enough people poney up enough money, it can happen.
Of course, if people ponied up money to Hunter or Tancredo we’d not be in this spot. So it may be that there are not enough such people.
Oh for the love of Pete, will you just tell us which candidate you’re talking about? I don’t have time to guess…
Well, if he’s going to go all Christian-like on us, maybe he can explain away God’s command not to steal or covet (…my wages in order to pay for their services).
#80, you can’t possibly think BO is the anti-Christ, he is way too dumb. The anti-christ will not only be extremely smart, but will have charisma and super power. Obama has charsima for ultra libs and the media, people are not buying it. So, don’t give this guy too much credit.
“God’s children”
I am so sick of that crapola.
Law-abiding American citizen taxpayers are also God’s children - don’t forsake them to reward foreign invaders and their enablers, Juan.
Nice to see he cut ties with Hagee today, though.
10 points.
The ARNOLD was the L A S T
LESSER OF TWO EVILS
for whom I will vote.
Ditto.
I’ve finally realized that voting for the lesser of two evils still means I’m voting for evil.
I’ll either find another living candidate to vote for, or write-in the late, great Charlton Heston for prez. But I absolutely won’t be voting for McCain.
As to McCain: I knew this, I have been talking about his back-tracking for weeks. I already have a “Conservatives Against McCain” bumper sticker and I drive proudly with it. Better 4 years of BO/CArter. BO is not the smartest pumpkin out there and he will want to get re-elected so he will not be too much more dangerous that McShamnesty, McCain will be the DEATH of the conservative movement, if he is allowed to win. He is already giving us the finger, can you immagine what he will do if elected? Probably, like the Clintons, go after conservatives.
I gotta ask again, are we really certain the primary results weren’t totally rigged? WHO actually voted for McCain? I didn’t and nobody I know did either. It’s only May; we have 5 months to re-do the primary. Maybe if enough people petition the RNC? This is just nuts! We have to do something or our country is headed for some really bad times with a nitwit at the helm, (no matter who wins).
Then, about 2 years into his rule, he begins letting slip his “Messianic” tendencies, and believes the world’s masses should worship him. In 2012, Armaggedon begins.
This could be McCain’s new slogan: ‘Vote McCain. At least he’s not the Antichrist.’.
Michelle,
This is a great write-up; AGAIN this exposes the core fact that McCain can NEVER be trusted, and it encourages the frank and honest dialog we should be having about this CRAPWEASEL TRAITOR.
He will destroy what remains of Republican Conservatism if he is elected. Either way, we are facing a wilderness for at least the next four years.
I say, let Obama have at it. He will be hated; hated within a matter of months, and we will re-build for 2010 and 2012.
And the CRAPWEASEL McCain will be gone forever.
And you, Michelle, please keep doing what you’re doing. Thank you.
MCCAIN YOU LYING SACK OF SH*T. If you were face to face with me right now, I’d punch your friggin lights out, you b@stard.
I think you’d get points for that.
This is hilarious! Malkin swoops in a couple of times a week and bad mouths McCain and most of the posters on here flap around like a bunch of chickens in a barnyard, squawking and screeching and running into each other in their haste to state how much they hate the man!
Who are you voting for Malkin?
Vince are you Buckaroo ?
RE: Post #97
RealImmigrantChick, Where can I get a “Conservatives against McCain” Bumper Sticker?
McCain is the democrats inside man.
I hope he gets hit by a falling piano.
I am so disgusted with this lying sack of crap, I would gladly go out and vote for Obama OR Clinton right now. Twice.
Hey Vince, are you scoring for McCain points? You need to disclose. Your comment lacks any facts or even close to reasonable argument, that is typical of a McCain bot- just pathetic/insulting. But like I have said before, the more McCain bots insult, the more it reminds us: NEVER vote for McCain.
I am telling you fellow conservatives, McCain’s strategy is to go after Dem voters, not even just independents. He will try to show he and the GOP do not need conservatives to WIN, he HATES US. So, what should we do to show him without conservatives, the GOP is dead? I strongly believe that McCain will be very bad for the future of conservatives if he wins. I will do what it reasonably takes to save conservatism and ensure a MCCain defeat.
Dear Gentle Reader, Mr. Vince,
Quite likely, you are the only reader who considers another expose of the CRAPWEASEL McCain to be an exercise in swoop-down badmouthing.
Perhaps you would like to tell eveyone who YOU are voting for. Thank you.
Love2Rumba: CafePress.com , type in anti-McCain and stuff comes up. I get a lot of my conservative bumper stickers there.
LOL. Thanks.
Here’s a great article about McCain by a former Congressman (IIRC, he & JM were in the House at the same time):
http://tinyurl.com/4cl4sj
The more we vote for the lesser of two evils, the further left we slide and we’ll NEVER get a truly conservative candidate again.
Our current laws would be just fine if they were enforced.
We are witnessing the gool old Washington Two Step. Pass laws to address a problem. While the laws were passed to reflect the will of the electorate, the enforcement of those laws is not politically expedient.
Withhold funding for law enforcement, while the original problem not only continues but grows out of control. When it reaches critical mass, point out that the existing laws are not working and the system is broken, with the only soultion being a whole new set of laws that reflects the “realities” of the present situation.
McCain has been part of the problem in not enforcing out existing laws for well over 20 years. It was he and others who allowed this to become the issue it is today. And guess what? There is no assurance that he or other elected officials will fund the enforcement of a new set of laws. In fact, there is precedent to suggest that Congress will continue doing what it wants despite voters wishes. When Reagan was arm twisted into supporting amnesty, he did so based on the promise that amnesty was a one time deal. Congress would never allow the situation to get to the point to where the country had to consider that as an alternative again. And here we are, again.
Yes, illegals are God’s children. Their souls belong to God, but their asses belong to someone other than the US.

wow…….insult the lot of us….and our kind host? That’s not good.
You KOS-kids should be in bed by now wet dreaming about Obammy shouldn’t ya?
I will only add to RealImmigrantChick that we are not only talking about a bad candidate, but serious infiltration by operatives of interests hostile to conservatives through McCain’s candidacy:
This kind of stuff happens directly not accidentally.
The same operatives that now work for McCain and stay with McCain will be the same people we will have to deal with over and over in a MCCain Administration.
and the only question that will remain is just who is an undisclosed Democrat and who isn’t..
This is why cleaning the Republican House of RINOs and probably infiltrators is so vital.
I can never wrap my mind around the logic of the pro-Illegal Alien crowd.
If US citizens do the same job, it would cost too much. At the same time I’m supposed to believe that by making these illegal aliens US citizens that these “new citizens” won’t demand the same wages and benefits as any OTHER US citizen ? Could you expect our “new citizens” (or the ACLU) to continue to work on the cheap ?
Just hire US citizens !
Once the illegal aliens get amnesty, it’s just as economically sound to hire current US citizens.
I’m neither a brain surgeon nor a rocket scientist, nor do I play one on TV…..Just sayin’…..
The visualization just about had me wetting my pants laughing, but putting that aside, so what? McCain IS a lying POS and is well deserving of our derision. The fact that he is so despised by his own party speaks volumes, does it not? Democrats like Vince should be praising us for being able to see through his lies and not being blinded by the R next to McCain’s name. Then again, making such a statement would make them look kind of foolish in light of the Obamessiah..
Who’s the lesser of two (three) evils?
still figuring that one out..
Bob Barr as a protest vote.
Ay carumba McShame!
This is my concern, too. It’s one thing for a Dem to get elected w/out Conservatives, but if a Repub were to do so, it would be taken as proof by TPTB that Conservatism Is Dead. This would be devastating for Conservatism, and-more importantly-for the country.
I think McCain has decided that he’s safe in flipping the bird to Conservatives b/c Obama is such a far-left candidate that ultimately only those on the far-left will vote for BO.
The odd thing about this public pro-amnesty stance, though, is that the polls show that it’s not just Cons who are against it, but the majority of the nation. So, he’s either misreading the polls, or he’s decided that the benefits of being avowedly pro-amnesty outweigh the risk of alienating about 70% of the country. Strange…
I’m voting for Tom Tancredo, Vinny. Reality is: all three of the current crop of front runners are garbage, and are going to take the country down the sewer. At least I can go to sleep at night, knowing I didn’t perpetuate it.
As Cameron said in Ferris Bueller, “I gotta take a stand.”
What do you stand for Vinny? And don’t call her Malkin. Show our host a little respect Tinkerbell.
