McCain can’t make up his mind: Fight! Shush! Fight! Shush!
The McCain camp has just e-mailed an advance copy of his remarks to be delivered today in Virginia Beach, Va. He’s pitching his awful individual mortgage buy-up plan again, but it’s the ending I want to focus on:
What America needs in this hour is a fighter; someone who puts all his cards on the table and trusts the judgment of the American people. I come from a long line of McCains who believed that to love America is to fight for her. I have fought for you most of my life. There are other ways to love this country, but I’ve never been the kind to do it from the sidelines.
I know you’re worried. America is a great country, but we are at a moment of national crisis that will determine our future. Will we continue to lead the world’s economies or will we be overtaken? Will the world become safer or more dangerous? Will our military remain the strongest in the world? Will our children and grandchildren’s future be brighter than ours?
My answer to you is yes. Yes, we will lead. Yes, we will prosper. Yes, we will be safer. Yes, we will pass on to our children a stronger, better country. But we must be prepared to act swiftly, boldly, with courage and wisdom.
I know what fear feels like. It’s a thief in the night who robs your strength.
I know what hopelessness feels like. It’s an enemy who defeats your will.
I felt those things once before. I will never let them in again. I’m an American. And I choose to fight.
Don’t give up hope. Be strong. Have courage. And fight.
Fight for a new direction for our country.
Fight for what’s right for America.
Fight to clean up the mess of corruption, infighting and selfishness in Washington.
Fight to get our economy out of the ditch and back in the lead.
Fight for the ideals and character of a free people.
Fight for our children’s future.
Fight for justice and opportunity for all.
Stand up to defend our country from its enemies.
Stand up, stand up, stand up and fight. America is worth fighting for. Nothing is inevitable here. We never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history.
Now, let’s go win this election and get this country moving again.
Sounds swell, “my friend.” But as I said on Fox and Friends this morning, “our friend” needs to embrace his own advice and ditch the Hello Kitty mittens. How are we supposed to take his call to arms seriously when he continues to shush conservatives (reminder that this is Mr. “Calm Down” we’re talking about) and tell his supporters that we have nothing to fear from an Obama presidency?
It’s a hell of a lot easier to “Fight for what’s right for America” when your candidate leaves the toddler leashes at home.

Your vote counts.
Yes. I have weighed and measured ny decision and will live with the consequences.
You got it.
That is only useful if the guy does what we want…If the guy wants to be in office to apply pressure for another bailout on REpublicans, then letting him lose is better.
The current bailout we will owe (for nothing) was PUSHED on by a REpublican administration…had this been a Democrat administration..this bailout would have been the opportunity of a lifetime for new conservatives.
I said this months ago..the haredcore McCain camp is infested with democrats and democrat sympathizers…you can’t wage effective conservative policy change with a dynamic like this constantly happening.
There isn’t anything blind about my support. You may not agree with it and that’s your perogative. What happened to this:
.
Ugghhh! I reiterate:
This is utter stupidity. The influx of illegals, the growth of ACORN, and the Unfairness Doctrine over the next four years of Obamanation will mean the death of the GOP. Losing is not an option!
Hey luv2rumba, this election is like root cannal. It will hurt. For a while, it will be very uncomfortable. BUT, losing one’s teeth is not an option.
Maybe Mac got paid off by Hussein to lose gracefully. Ya think?
I heard Laura Ingraham ask the question why McCain’s speech writers cannot put together three or four great sentences describing or formulating his economic plan that translates well to the country. My comment is that I believe they may have already given McCain some great lines but because McCain has steadfastly made it clear he will run this campaign “his way”, he refuses to use them because they are probably not worded the way he wants them. That said, he has managed to mangle the message into in unintelligible and incoherent ramblings. And it does not include his $300 billion mortgage buyback.
We will get what we asked for come November 4th. A Democrat controlled White House, Senate, and House with a veto proof majority. Just imagine the next two, four, six, or eight years with this country being in the hands of a socialist who has at his beck and call, a veto proof congress willing to give him what he wants. Any conservative or Republican initiative will not see the light of day. If one thinks those “Red State” Democrats will stand up to the leftists, think again. They won’t have the intestinal fortitude to go against the Obama machine once he is in power. We complain now about the media bias but imagine what will happen when this same media who support Obama and his platform now will do to be an even more active surrogate arm of his administration.
Damn, this is becoming even more frightening that what we thought would be a Hillary administration a few months ago. At this point, I would be glad to see Bill back in the White House.
Yeah except for McCain and the libs that support him.
He’s a LIBERAL! Just like Oblahma! So what if he wins? So what if he loses?? You’re getting a SOCIALIST either way.
Thanks for your support of a real conservative candidate, anyway.

Thank you.

Obama makes Hillary look like Martha Washington. At least she would not dismantle our nuclear defense system!
How did we get to this state of affairs?
The death of the GOP may be exactly what we need.

RWR,
If Obama wins, you will not get another chance. The only vote that matters is the one that can stop Obama. Any other vote is wasted.
But I know I will not convince you. You will fail to vote to stop Obama, because you ‘win’ either way.
If Obama wins, you can say your vote wouldn’t have mattered. He’ll win by more than one vote. And when they come for you, you can point to those of us who actually voted to stop Obama. We are the ‘real racists.’ You can point to all of your McCain bashing.
If McCain wins, you can whine about the Republicrats and the Demopublicans for four more years.
Hey, it’s a no brainer.
Maybe I should have clarified: Death forever! No coming back! No resurrection! Complete socialism would be certain for America’s present and future. This is really what you want? That’s sick.
Just because I don’t begrudge your support of McCain (or anyone else’s, for that matter) doesn’t mean I think you are doing the right thing or acting in the best interests of the United States Constitution. You decided that your ability to choose your candidate ended with the primary. I say that’s blind and foolish. I did the same thing in 2000 and 2004, and I say it was foolish of me to do it then. It’s the same for you today.
Look, I’m not asking you to agree with me, I’m asking you to, as you said you would, deal with the consequences of your vote in an intelligent manner down the road. McCain isn’t going to be any better for any of us than Oblahma, so voting for either is not something a conservative should do, in my opinion.
If your opinion differs, I certainly hope it will change in the future, and probable events are likely to force it to change. I’m not begrudging your decision, just demonstrating that you will be just as unhappy under McCain as you will be under Oblahma.

Anyone who thinks that after 2 years of a veto proof Pelosi-Reid-Obama triumvirate running amok in Washington DC they can remove the Dems from power is in a severe Pam Tillis state of denial … they won’t need 4 years to complete their Socialistic take-over …
I guarantee that they will change all the rules so drastically in juest 2 years that it will be virtually impossible for anyone but the Dems to ever be in power in any part of the Federal government again …
Add to that the immediate retirements that will happen on the Supreme Court by the current libs to ensure that they can put more libs on the court in their places along with any other replacements and it will be all over …
If people are so interested in a 3rd party gaining viable traction in the future they need to understand that the time to begin that kind of a drive is starting right after an election … then work for it all-year round … not just when election season arrives every couple of years …
Well, we’re going to have a Democrat in the White House no matter who wins the election.

Get off your butt RNC and get something done. Yes, you are afraid of being called rascist/accused of denying the vote and WE get stuck with Democrats. God Bless America except for the blue states.

Peddler … guess we were thinking much alike …
You ask me not to suggest that you are wasting your vote. I’m merely asking the same.
I can assure you I will. As it stands, you’ll simply have to take my word for it.
Duly noted.
That remains to be seen and I highly doubt it. Time will tell. But in the meantime, I’ll still be here - fighting a good fight.
“Insane in the membrane…”
Someone tell me McAmnesty can still win…
This site seems lousy with liberal infiltraitors pretending to be conservatives.
Let’s get one thing strait here. There are and always have been only TWO parties in this great country that count. They aren’t perfect, but that’s what we have. It’s like you have two children that have gone astray. You can’t adopt their friends just because you are fed up with your own. We can fix the Republican party, but not over night. First thing is to elect McCain into office. Also, elect CONSERVATIVE Representatives into Congress. THe latter is almost more important, although we cannot let Obama win. PERIOD.
I concur.
Look. I had this argument many months ago on another comment thread at another blog.
Oblahma will not be able to do away with the Constitution. Once he tries, America will wake up in a BIG hurry. If she doesn’t, then she was never deserving of said Constitution in the first place.
What you have here is a choice between which brand of socialist dictatorship you want: Oblahma’s Constitution shredding with bad judges or McCain’s Constitution shredding with bad judges.
You pick, ok? I’m voting for someone who’s willing to stand up for freedom.
RWR
http://www.rightwingrocker.com
Yes, with McCain as President, we will often be banging our head against the wall (as if we don’t already with G.W.?), but with Obama we will be slitting our wrists.
Exactly right, and a third-party movement needs to begin at the local level, which is where we have more control.
It is vital that we continue to vote Republican in this election, no matter how fed up we are with our Senators and US Reps.
The Republican Party that stood up for freedom and the Constitution has been dead for a long time and is never coming back. It would be nice to make it official and replace it with a party that will stand up for the Founders’ ideals.
I do not agree that socialist toalitarianism will be the order of the day when that happens. A conservative party will emerge out of necessity, and what’s left of the Republican Party will be forced to choose up sides.
At that point, there’s hope for America.
RWR
http://www.rightwingrocker.com
I’m convinced this whole election is a colossal reparations push:
Obama
winssteals the election, taxes the living f*** out of the white middle class and upper class, thereby making them slaves to the system.The black population (aw heck, throw in the exponentially-expanding hispanic population too) can remain on the public dole, not having to work, not having to pay taxes, and get free healthcare, mortgages, housing, education, food, and other goodies.
Reverse slavery!
Sorry, I just don’t see how any kind of conservative movement can flourish from under the monstrosity of a socialist system Obamanation plans for. By the time the first year or two is up, America will be more than 70% democrat-leaning, considering the hispanic population moving up here and ACORN being allowed to thrive.
There is NO CONCEIVABLE WAY we can overcome that.
I didn’t say you were wasting your vote. I said I think it’s a foolish way to vote, but that I understand the rationale and respect it, having done the same thing myself in the past.
And I see no reason not to do just that. You have always been insightful here and more than fair. When things get the way they will, you will probably see it for what it is, and act appropriately. I have the utmost faith in you.
Time will, indeed, tell, but the last liberal Republican we put in there did what he did, and McCain’s track record is worse. While I hope you are right, I don’t see any justification for optimism.

http://www.rightwingrocker.com
rightwingrocker, a month or so ago I was right where you are now. I saw McCain as a traitor to the Republican party, a true RINO, a guy who even wanted to switch to the democrat party a few years back. I was vehemently against McCain as Rep nominee for POTUS, as certain McCainites here would testify. I was not going to vote for POTUS at all come November, but stick to voting Republican all the way down the line below POTUS, that’s how pi$$ed I was.
I still don’t like McCain and believe he does not represent conservatism. My conscience would not let me hold my nose and vote for him, and my reasoning was the same as yours - that having a democrat POTUS for 4 years would push the Republican party back to the right, and have it offering up a solid conservative as the nominee 4 years from now. I’m sure this sounds familiar to you.
However, if Obama gets in, I wonder if there will be a Republican party 4 years from now, at least one that is permitted to exist. The blind cult that has become the democrat base is truly frightening in its ramifications, and it is fear for the future that has made me change me stance and vote McCain, as much as it disgusts me to do so, because (and this is the reasoning I had the most problem coming to terms with), the alternate - Obama - could mean the end of the USA as we know it.
I understand where you’re coming from, truly, but think about it, please.
Hellooooooooooooo McCain campaign? The Wall Street Journal spelled out the “magician” FauxBama’s 95% cough cough tax cuts right here.
add: If Hillary got the nomination instead of Obama, I’d be with you RWR.
The real question is not what I think but rather, what does McCain think his role actually is in this race. He has continually blown opportunity after opportunity to smash Obama into the ground as the neophyte he is…he refuses to do it.
If I saw this kind of behavior continually repeated elsewhere, I’d say there has been a payoff, and John McCain took a dive..and did so possibly long ago.
And then you immediately go on to say it’s our choice of shredders of the Constitution.
Obama most certainly CAN do away with the Constitution. He just has to appoint Bill Ayers types to the Supreme Court. He just has to pass hate speech laws through the heavily Democrat Congress. He just needs laws to seize your guns. He has the media. He has the Court. He has both Houses of Congress.
Do you SERIOUSLY see PELOSI opposing ANYONE Obama would nominate to the Court?
However, I know I can’t convince you. You will make the selfish vote that makes you feel good rather than the responsible vote.
In that way you are very much like a Democrat.
Rezko is signing like a stuck pig. It’s a matter of time.
Ditto
He won’t fight.
And what is this “inevitable” crap? Use of that words spells surrender.
Nothing to fear from an Obama Presidency?
How about:
- Being Taxed into a socialist poor house.
- being Taxed into a depression
- Having radical socialist agenda’s being the “Norm” for schools. “Hey kids. Screw that white collar corporate job. Be a smelly protestor at the next GOP convention.”
- Socializing Healthcare and committing us to 100 years of more socialism.
- Giving Obama’s seedy pals like Ayers, Wright and others access to the ear of the president.
- Hearing Osama Bin Laden and his minions CHEER for their Obama victory. Then they attack us again.
- Watching our military be further gutted and denigrated.
- Appointing 3 new liberal judges that will make Ginsberg look like a conservative.
- Conferring even more rights to unlawful terrorists that attacked us and to those who have yet to attack us.
- Wealking our sovereignty by giving credence to European laws and ways of life that we had forsaken more than 200 years ago.
And that’s just for starters.
Either way we’re screwed on Global Warming nonsense and Immigration. But hey.. look at how much worse it would be with an Obama at the helm.
Win or lose, I’m going to continue to be a fiscal and social conservative. I don’t care how many socialists get put into office. I would, however, like to see John McCain, “stand up, stand up, stand up” and follow his own advice by fighting with more than talking points. He needs to bitch slap Obambi with facts and call him out on his fraudulent plans, his blatant lies and his anti-American friends.
Oops. Yeah. Okay. I know. Reid, not Pelosi. Same thing.
NJ-Aviator …
I figure McCain’s right that there is no reason to fear Obama …
that’s because he is nothing but a puppet for Soros and all the other extreme leftist, liberal, behind the scenes handlers that control him …
this guy has never had an original idea or worked a real job a single day in his life …
I don’t think Rezko will rat out his fellow Jihadist.
Rob, we can still win. It will not be easy, but I am not giving up. I am praying daily for McCain/Palin and that God will show mercy for our country. I am going to volunteer for the McCain/Palin campaign. I am going to vote early (and often…just kidding). I have done the best I can to convince the very few people I know who said they were not sure about McCain. The two I spoke to are now voting for McCain/Palin in November—especially after learning of Obama’s associations and his history of socialist policies and infanticide.
I don’t recall Ronald Reagan being anything but a calm statesman who told the nation how things were when he ran against Carter and won in a landslide. Reagan was a gentleman. Other than telling Gorbachev to “tear down this wall” I do not recall him getting down and dirty in his campaign, or raising his voice at any time (if I am wrong, please correct me).
John McCain will never lower himself to the level of the opposition. I don’t want him to do that, but I do want him to get mad and feel the anger the conservatives feel as this election is stolen due to ACORN and fraud. Get mad, Senator McCain, get mad. Statesmen can express their anger and get the point won. I hope and pray he will do this in the next three weeks and in the last debate. Who is Barack Obama? Answer that in detail.
Yes, John McCain needs to fight well and hard to win this election. He needs to stay on the Straight Talk Express and, in addition to talking about the economy amd how he plans to make it stronger with tax breaks and smaller government; and strengthing our military and protecting our nation—he also needs to talk about who the American people can trust to see that these important issues are fought for. John McCain needs to look at the camera and ask: “Can you, the American people, trust a man with Obama’s associations” (and list them, borrowed from Mark Levine today):ACORN, Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, Frank Marshal Davis, Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour, Rashid Khalidi, Raila Odinga?
If you are not familiar with any of the names above, please Google them. This is an important time in our lives. Arm yourselves with knowledge.
John McCain should not shy away from Obama’s associations. The American people have a right to know who will take the office of President of the United States. The problem is, Obama and the DNC are keeping secrets and hiding behind the smokescreen of the media.
You are part of this army to defeat Obama. What are you doing in the next three weeks to make sure McCain/Palin are going to win?
If everyone’s fears are going to come true and Obama wins, and we get a Dem. majority in the house and senate,can we ask ourselves why that is? I heard a little bit of Rush this morning and he was saying the real trouble is within the Republican party because there is a battle for the soul of the party. We have to ask ourselves how McCain ending up with the nomination in the first place.
That’s like saying there’s no difference between a shoplifter and a murderer. I mean, they’re both criminals, right?
No wonder this country is having so much trouble right now. It’s filled with stupid people.
I got this quote in an email last weekend. It was written in 1948 and applies to us today.
There is no room or time for defeatism.
The USA as we knew it is already gone. What is needed now is thought for what comes next.
The Constitution is still there, we still enjoy the freedoms if affords. Savor it while you still can. Yes, the USA has changed, but it hasn’t gone imho - at least not yet. What you interpret as ‘gone’ now is nothing next to what may well happen should Obama rule.
Or maybe I’m just being a Chicken Little again and worrying too much?
Obama is not the problem. He’s merely a symptom of the problem.
What happened to the money advantage the RNC & McCain had over the DNC & Obama? Obama is outspending McCain dramatically and moving up in the polls as a result. McCain even dropped out of Michigan?? and still is being outspent.
Has the RNC given up on the presidency and spending the money all on congressional races or are they stockpiling for a big last week spending blitz?
Obama is not a problem now? lol ok..
I wouldn’t call him a symptom, I’d call him an enabler, or perhaps a catalyst. He is the leader of a cult. Take away the power from the leader, you take away the power he has over his followers.
Good grief, people. The USA is still strong. Do you have such short memories that you cannot remember the PEOPLE telling McCain and Pelosi and others that we will not have amnesty? The soul and heart of these people are the ones who will (the majority) vote for McCain/Palin.
I may be stubborn as a mule, but I will go down fighting. I have never been anything but an optimist and won’t stop now—even if Obama steals the election with his ACORN votes. If he does, then my God is still the same and I will accept His will—and that good things (like a strengthening and rebirth of the GOP) will come from an Obama victory.
But…until that day, for the sake of our nation:
FIGHT. NEVER, EVER GIVE UP.
Sorry about shouting. Defeatests irritate me.
We are trying to sign up the Sugar Plum Fairies now. Allah Akbar/All Power to the Soviet just in case

So many people have bashed Perot voters over the years and blamed them for Clinton. I submit it is the opposite.
Perot voters voted their conscience… Bush voters gave into fear and voted for the LOTE.
THEY, not the Perot voters, gave us Clinton. They were the ones who voted for a continuance of the corrupt Washington machine.
Perot, as flawed as he was, would have turned Washington on its collective ear. He would have been a wake-up call to BOTH parties. And maybe we wouldn’t be locked into the 2 Party which is closer to 1 Party now than ever. And maybe we wouldn’t have a Marxist and Socialist running today! He would have forced fiscal discipline and gotten the government house in order.
McCain/Feigold and other ‘campaign reforms’. I send in $2501 I am in trouble, Comrad Soroes spends $20 million and it is advocacy. McBeltway is being hung by his own rope-taking us with him.
Be prepared.

I wish I could share your optimism. But I can’t. What you see as “hope” I’d envision as a multi-generation spanning, self-negating political right: fractured between a Republican and a “Conservative” party, resulting in donkeys winning every time by a plurality — just like Clinton did in the 90s.
As a Perot voter in 1992, I disagree with that assessment. I don’t necessarily blame myself for Clinton’s win in that election, but to blame those who voted for Bush the Elder for that result is a non-sequitur.
Liberals need conservative votes to be diluted and canceled out. The best way to get what they need is for:
1. Conservatives to throw away their votes on third-parties and write-ins who have zero chance of getting elected; and
2. For conservative votes to be nullified by ACORN — if you vote for McCain, then Fluffy, or Dick Tracy, or “Jive Turkey” cancels you out by “voting” for Hopenchange.
I learned from my mistake in 1992. I won’t p*ss away my vote like that again. Yeah, Fido will cancel out my vote — but at least I won’t have helped the donks by canceling myself out and letting Fido score unopposed.
yeah we got a few more months before obama ascends to the throne…
It’s exactly right that McCain doesn’t have the stomach for a real fight. He has spent too many years cozying up with the Kennedys and other Democrats in the Senate social club not realizing they are playing him for a sucker. The real question we need to ask his how did we ever get stuck with this guy as a nominee? The entire nomination process needs to be thrown out and reworked from scratch because we cannot have the likes of New Hampshire making such important decisions, and we cannot have any system where registered Democrats are allowed to vote in Republican primaries.
One of McCain/Palin’s biggest problems is their fear of talking about the past because they do not want to be associated with the Bush administration. A few times in the CP debate Palin tried to use the “let’s not talk about the past” gimmick but for me it was painfully ineffective and came across as an avoidance move. I say let’s talk about the past and how the foreign policy failures of the previous Democratic regime led directly to 9/11. We should never forget how Clinton did nothing in response to WTC I, Cole, Khobar Towers, etc. etc. How he was offered Bin Laden’s head on a platter and declined. Every day we should be holding up the pictures of Albright handing Kim Jong Il an autographed Michael Jordan basketball while the Dear Leader cheated on every agreement he made. This is the kind of foreign policy we are returning to with an Obama administration, only much much worse. I can already see Obama showing up in Iran with an autographed Brett Favre football or platinum Barbra Streisand record or whatever.
But there is no real fight in this campaign. It’s the same “let’s not talk about the past” platitudes and then droning on about creating jobs, blah blah. I don’t think McCain wants it badly enough. For him just being nominated was a victory after waiting 8 long years after 2000, and he knows he has his cushy Senate job to go back to when it is all over.
Yeah, Palin should have responded, ‘Okay, let’s talk about the past. Let’s start with Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Obama, who have all stated that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were just fine and doing well and resisted all Republican urging for greater oversite and regulations…….’
I will go on being a fiscal and social conservative regardless who wins or loses. All I ask is for the Republican party to return to those same values, which are shared by the majority of this country.
All I ask for John McCain is that he follow his own adive. John, “stand up, stand up, stand up and fight”. If nothing else I want McCain to take the facts and call out Obambi face-to-face. Call out Obambi’s lies, fraud and his anti-American friends. Then let the American people decide.
Either way, I will not change what I believe and who I am. If the whole country turns to socialism I will fight against it.
You seem to have it just about right.
HE NEEDS TO FIGHT!!!!!!!!
DID ANYONE SEE OBAMA CLEAR AS DAY SAY HE WANTS TO SPREAD THE WEALTH!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And now lefty talking heads are spinning his words to sound like it’s better for america. Holy Crap, “Spreading the wealth”=socialism.
Didn’t McCain survive a horrible war that was fought to get rid of socialism and communism? He needs to fight now for our country.
I don’t cry but I may tonight as I see my country die before my eyes. I know people “talk” but I am honestly depressed and saddened by this. It’s like I am watching my child slowly die from cancer and there is nothing I can do about it.
let Sarah run the campaign…there won’t be any back and forth on which way to go…attack attack attack…Ayers, ACORN, Birth Certificate, other ties….bad decisions, bad friends….go get em…there’s isn’t much time left…
As McCain says, There are stark differences between the 2 candidates. The failure is that Barack has a better “narrative”, not a better plan.
Barack runs the “Republicans want to give the rich tax cuts while I will give 95% of the people a tax cut”. That makes sense to people.
McCain says giving tax cuts to the wealthy will create jobs. That does not compute to the average person. They don’t even take the time to ask how.
Barack has the people believing that corporations are evil. McCain can’t explain that corporations give people jobs.
If there are no corporations, then there can only be small business and government. Small businesses can never grow large and pretty soon there is only one evil corporation, the Government, AKA USSA.
McCain can’t explain any of that. Barack is laughing his butt off watching McCain fail to explain the narrative. He knows the difference. He also knows McCain can not properly explain it. The “lower taxes create jobs” line is just not enough for the American Idol generation.
Yup, Rumba, I’ll probably skip the next “debare” entirely - after only 10 min of the last one I knew it was just McCain airing out the white flag again.
The election is nothing more than “Bob Dole’s Excellent Adventure Pt.2″ to McCain. A nominal run for office then it’s back to the Senate to impress his real friends - Dems in Congress and the media - with his “maverick bipartisanship”.
Amen to that. Give Sarah the “full speed ahead” signal and link Obama to the root of this financial collapse; Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, bullying tactics employed by ACORN to intimidate banks (Obama trained ACORN). Keep the focus on Obama’s bad judgement and Islamic ties:
Attended school in Indonesia - registration card shows, Name - Arry Soetoro; religion - Islam, citizenship - Indonesian
1979 - Attended Occidental College in CA., two Pakistani roomates - Muhammad Hassan Chandoo
1981 - as a student, went on a foreign trip to Indonesia, India, and 3 weeks in Pakistan, staying Pakistani college roomate’s family.Curiosly,when he attended Columbia he insisted to be called Barack instead of Barry, the name that he used prior to his foreign trip.
Tony Rezko, born in Aleppo Syria - convicted felon, facilitated Obama’s purchase of a $1.6 million home in 2005, also one of Obama’s major financial contributor.

Valerie Jarret, Chief Advisor to Obama, also Michelle O’s former boss, was born in Shiraz, Iran. Obama runs all his major decision through her.
May 2008, Robert Malley, advisor to Obama resignes after the press exposed hisregular contact with the terrorist group HAMAS

I am calmer now than I was this morning, purplepeep….McCain is going to have to do exactly what he said he’d do ..which is whoop Obama’s ass Wednesday, or he is finished. and if he does, he must not veer from that AT ALL from now until the end of the election.
He needs to adhere to the words of Alice Cooper…No More Mr. Nice Guy.

I of course agree Joy, as I was one of those who voted for him. Bush-I took conservatives for granted, and pissed away their support in 1992. If Bush-I had been re-elected he would have listened even less to conservatives, and removed any incentive for the post-Reagan candidates to listen either.
I’m going to vote for McCain-Palin and like Rush said, we have to drag him across the finish line.
But if he doesn’t kick a$$ tomorrow night, I’m going to start planning my life so I don’t pay attention to politics, blogs, etc. until the heavy cloud lifts in 2012. I have gotten so wrapped up in it that my mood changes depending on the polls. It’s craziness. I’ve never, ever been a person who’s blissfully unaware. I may have to learn.
Could have fooled me.
Thanks to people like McBlahma, we no longer have the rights guaranteed by the First, Second, Fourth , Fifth Amendments, or Tenth Amendments.
And those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
The time to fight for this stuff is now, not after your freedoms have been further snuffed out by McBlahma. It’s only going to be harder then.
