is McCain the Lessor of Two Evils?

[Sister Alvear]

Is that really true? If so it is very scary...

Not really, I don't think he supports Cuba as much as trying to appease the American-Cuban vote.

[Sister Alvear]

by the video it says:

This clip from myfoxhouston.com shows a Barack Obama office in Houston with a flag over the desk...not the American flag, but the Cuban flag. And the flag is adorned by a picture of infamous terrorist, tyrant, and opponent of democracy, Che Guevara.

Che Guevara was a violent communist anti-American, something nobody would dispute.

Let's hope that if Obama wins, he doesn't follow in the footsteps of Guevara....as he was "The Butcher of the Cabaña," a ruthless tyrant who executed countless people without trial, merely on suspicion that they disagreed with him, were religious, etc.

Another reason for Obama to beware emulating this guy... Seems that the peasants didn't like him as much as he'd hoped. He was captured and executed when they failed to protect him. Doesn't stop American loons from idolizing him, though!

(Why do I call him a terrorist, when he felt that widespread terrorism was counterproductive? Because he did promote assassination as legitimate, and he ran a terror campaign when he gained power. Perhaps that's overly broad--so viewers can just figure Obama campaign volunteers support assassination, thuggery, and murder, if it feels liguistically better.

It was put up by Obama supporters in their Houston offices. It seems to have been removed from public and the "Cuban-American" Obama campaign volunteer who was interviewed about the flag refused to even discuss it before walking away from the interview.

Mccain has till November to convince me to vote for him. Hes no worse than most politicians I have been aware of over the years. It takes one with tremendous ego to run for President.

No votes ever from me for pro gay, pro aborts.

So, are you saying you are willing to suspend reviewing his track record for support and voting and decide based on campaign promises? Would the selection of a churchmouse veep do it for you?

I daresay it also takes a lot of guts. ONE misspoken word on the campaign trail, or even years in the past, can ruin it all. Any past indiscretion is fair game for a surly and public analysis.

This year all the front runners have had some sort of protected status that limits the ferocity with which the opponents are willing to attack them:
1) Be careful attacking the minority on the issues lest you be viewed as racist
2) Be careful attacking the woman on the issues lest you be viewed as sexist
3) Be careful attacking the former war hero P.O.W. on the issues- hordes of people get a tear in their eye just thinking about his sacrifice for his country
4) Be careful attacking the former Baptist preacher on the issues- Baptists vote both sides and there are MILLIONS of them
5) Be careful attacking the cult member on the issues lest you be viewed as discriminating based on religion

No votes ever from me for pro gay, pro aborts.

There is just no question that this year it's going to be a tough call.

The christians in my church find it hard to believe that Americans would go wild over Obama...How can I ever tell my people the evils of the left party if he has a picture of Guevara in one of his offices and intelligent people laugh it off...
You would not be laughing if you were under rule of a Guevara...yes, I know most think that could never happen in the good ole USA...many thought Rome would rule forever...

Here's something I posted in another thread:
http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com...432#post388432

John McCain met his wife Cindy and began a whirlwind love affair and courtship. However, John McCain had a few things to take care of before they could marry. John McCain had to divorce Carol, his wife of 14 years. John McCain has even admitted to having had a problem keeping his member privy during this period by admitting that he had extramarital "affairs". John McCain then abandoned his wife and children to marry Cindy, the woman he was sleeping around with (not even Clinton abandoned his wife and children). During this adulterous relationship John McCain charmed Cindy with a web of "white lies". For example he lied about his age when they met and even lied to her while in the hospital when she was given flowers from a "John", when she thanked him he let on like he had sent her flowers, but in fact the flowers weren't from John McCain. He laughs about this today as though it is charming. But while telling these little white lies he was sleeping around with her and being unfaithful to his wife. Absolutely nothing charming about it.

Also John McCain has emotional outbursts, fits of rage, and uses extensive foul language. These are typicaly behaviors of men who have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, something for which he has been evaluated for several times, primarily because of his suicide attempt. The man is also in his 70's and is having moments of being "out of touch" with conversations. He's the last man who can be expected to broker peace in the Middle East and bring moderate Islamic nations into alliance with us against Islamic extremists. I don't want him anywhere near the "button".

A man's family life is a sure sign of his character and leadership, that's why the Apostle Paul made a solid family life a requirement for leadership in God's church. John McCain is a lying, unfaithful, and emotionally unstable man. His age should also be a concerning factor. So I'd consider these things before anointing him our "conservative" leader.

On the other hand Obama, while a liberal, is still married to his first and only wife Michelle. Obama deeply loves his wife and children, and it shows. Men may have their political "policies" they espouse, and we might disagree with them on an issue or two....but fidelity is the truest test of "character". And McCain fails that test.

Like I said, I'd rather vote for a man who is honest about being a liberal than a man who claims to be a conservative but is actually nothing but an emotionally unstable phony.
