Re: McCain's Kool Aid

Four years of Jimmy Carter was enough to start the Islamic fundamentalist movement we have today. Four to eight years of Obama or Hillary will be enough for them to undermine the military enough, our intelligence community, our sovereignty, our freedoms, our economy, our institutions, and anything traditional and conservative it will take 30 years to undo. Some of the things that will be created under their watch we will never be able to reverse. Vote for McCain as an anti-Obama/Hillary vote.

Neither Clinton nor Obama is gay, so the first part is ignorantly wrong. And I don't believe, while they are pro-choice, either are "baby killers."

Also, voting Dem doesn't mean you've thrown your morals away, though the morale of conservatives would be weakened with a Democratic, or even a McCain presidency.

But whatever makes you feel better ...

PS . . . McCain's still a hot-headed jerk.

LoL

Re: McCain's Kool Aid

Did I miss something along the way? What's wrong with Mike Huckabee. Can't we vote for him, or doesn't he have a chance. If everybody that was voting for all the others that have dropped out would vote for him I think He might make it.

He's not a rock-solid conservative. He's got no clue about foreign policy. He might turn out to be a theocrat. His stance on taxation is questionable.

Romney was the only one in the race that offered a little something to each of the three legs of the stool of the Republican coalition of fiscal conservatives, cultural conservatives, and defense/military conservatives.

Easy now, Romney was hardly a cultural conservative. He did more for gays and abortion rights than any governor before him. Huckabee was a good choice, had he shored up his foreign policy he would have been the pick of the litter.

You gotta look deeper than the kindergarten mentality that you accuse of me or else I will have to talk to you like a 5 yr old. Gay rights was the point that went over your head brother. And as you yourself have stated in bold, "either are baby killers." After all the description of "pro-choice" and "baby killer" is the same.

Also, voting Dem doesn't mean you've thrown your morals away,

No, but it does mean you are willing to greatly compromise them.

though the morale of conservatives would be weakened with a Democratic, or even a McCain presidency.

But whatever makes you feel better ...

Got Jesus brother, I'm feeling fine...

I believe that the "War on Terror" is still in the minds of the people no matter how much the media tries to turn our attention to the economy. This is a dangerous time for anyone in the White House. I would trust McCain on this issue than anyone.

Re: McCain's Kool Aid

oh I'm with you , It is just the nature of the beast.

most of the time when one party is in for 2 terms the other party gets the next election. History repeats itself.
