A vote for McCain is a vote for Hillary in my book!
My second rant is in the comments section! FYI! The Mav had to bus in the McCaianics as the cheer squad to the CPAC convention this morning (The cheers we all heard on the radio/tv)! Did you hear those boos? Those were the ones who paid to attend the convention aka Romney supporters.
~~~
Breaking News! Romney suspends his campaign!
That’s a shocker, but I can’t blame him. Please excuse me, I’m so angry right now, I can barely get my words out so here it goes . . . A vote for McCain is a vote for Hillary in my book! I am so disgusted with McCain and the Huckster. The only way the Mavrick was capable of winning this many delgates was by dirty politics, and lies! Wow! However, this is a picture of what kind of President he would make . . . a lying, dirty trickster who “reaches” across the aisle to tax us to death and open the borders for illegals, and terrorists and pass laws to shut you up! Sure, he’s for the protection of this country! His words contradict him, but his actions speak loud and clear! I heard some where that in order to reach across the aisle you have to bend over!
He even brought in the Huckster ( the useful tool) to fulfill his diabolical plan. I am shocked that the Huckster spouts off his so called Christianity and then allows himself to participate in McCain’s tricks to win and defeat his serious competition. If you can’t win on your principles, and ideas then you have no business leading my country in this world! I have to admit that Romney was the only way we would have gotten this economy under control and the border closed. McCain has so much as admitted that we will have more wars and more causalities and he will raise our taxes. So much for conservative principles! He said, “It would be great if we were in Iraq for 100 years!
Well, I will not under any circumstances support this low life ragaholic adulterer for president. If Ron Paul drops out, and does not go Indie I will be supporting Hillary for President! It will be much better for my country if I do so!
What is the difference between the madman and the mad woman? One simple letter! The are both vindictive, angry people who seek to settle scores! McCain doesn’t stand for my conservative principles and as far as I am concerned the Republican party has left me. I am seriously considering dropping out of the Republican party and going indie! They won’t miss me anyway!
Conservatives MUST STAND YOUR GROUND FOR CONSERVATIVE PRINCIPLES AND NOT VOTE FOR MCCAIN under any circumstances because he has betrayed us before and I guarantee you he will betray us again!
Conservative principles are not strengthened by betrayal, and we need to stay strong and credible because if we cave in on this issue the RINOs will continue doing what they do which is to take over the Republican party. We can’t enable this kind of crap anymore!

According to the American Conservative Union McCain’s conservative voting record comes in at about 82% lifetime. He may not be the best “Conservative” out there, but last time I checked Hillary’s score came in at a 9%.
Obviously there is a rather large difference between the two. Unless, of course, the ACU is no longer considered conservative?
[For ratings see http://www.acuratings.org/
This is the deal: The ACU is run by a bunch of neocon Scamnesty lovers, and they will tell you, I know because I was there at a meeting with Grover Nordquist, so heard this myself: that if we don’t pass Scamnesty then we are going to loose a whole block of latino votes. We’re going to piss off the latinos! Oooh, I’m shaking in my boots!
So the R party is pro- pandering for the latino votes, not for taking a stand on what is right.
McCain said today, “I hear my conservative brothers are for the rule of law. I heard you on Amnesty and I get it. I will secure the border FIRST;” . . . . crickets chirping. “THEN I will ram through SCAMnesty.”
Of course, McCain never finishes that sentence in public with what he is going to do after he secures the border and, of course we all know what he is going to do now don’t we?
These three words should never be in the same sentence:
McCain woos Conservatives. huh?
If McCain is so conservative then why is he wooing us conservatives?
Why did he have to get up on stage today, and make statements like this: “We share a CONCEPTION of liberty.” huh? We do? I don’t have a conception of liberty! There is no conception to liberty! We all don’t get to define liberty with our own definitions! How about McCain’s warm and fuzzy ability to stand next to liberals vote and with them?
Oh, I forgot that’s called “Bi-partisianshit!”
Why is McCain calling the Christian wing of the Conservative party, “agents of intolerance”? Why? Because we have a disagreement with him on Illegals colonizing our country? So that’s how he plays? We have a disagreement with him and he gets to throw his ad hominem bombs never answering our concerns?
What about the global warming crap he’s in agreement with al-Gore about? The cap and trade scam. Another way of taxing business? Sounds conservatives to me.
How about this McCain statement: “I’m going to surround myself with people like you.” If you’re a conservative, straight shooter, then why are you pointing this out? That’s a funny way to communicate with supposedly like minded conservatives. Every statement he makes is making distinctions between himself and us–conservatives.
If Hill was speaking like this we would accuse her of pandering, but McCain does the exact same thing and we are suppose to lockstep accept it!
I don’t think so!
Crap, his own mother says you have to plug your nose when you pull the level for John McCain!
These are just a few things off the top of my mind. I’m pissed off with the R party for always trying to guilt trip me into voting for the RINO candidate just to gain power and not for standing on principle. Please review my piece on F.U.D.
In conclusion,
You would think that when one goes to their caucus meetings, or reorganizational meetings or precinct meetings that one would feel energized, hopeful, excited about the future of your party! Well, when I go to these things I come away believing that I am disenfranchised, ignored, and helpless. Sounds to me like it’s time to leave my party and perhaps join the Constitution party
I’m just getting going here, more later . . . thanks.
The ACU was for Shamesty?? I don’t see how this could be remotely true..
Here’s the skivvy on McCain’s lifetime ACU rating which squishy-cons always like to proffer as proving his conservative bona fides:
McCain’s average rating for his first 14 years in Congress (including his stint as a so-called foot-soldier for Reagan) was 87. Not super conservative, but pretty good.
For the last ten years (including Slick’s second term and all of GWB) it averaged 75. Whoops.
His most-recent preformance (2006, for which the ACU rating is available) was 65.
How Conservative is this guy again??
“How Conservative is this guy again??”
Exactly 73 percent more Conservative than Hillary.
.
“Here’s the skivvy on McCain’s lifetime ACU rating which squishy-cons always like to proffer as proving his conservative bona fides:”
I don’t consider him a die hard conservative by any means, but it seems many Republicans are going into paroxysms of anger screaming how little difference there is between him and Hillary. While he might not have the greatest voting record, there still remains a significant different between him and either Democratic candidate.
Nixon’s (somewhere between a liberal and moderate Republican) election didn’t kill the party, neither did Ford’s presidency. And lest we forget, the idol of many Republicans (who himself inked a deal for amnesty), Ronald Reagan, managed to win the party’s nomination after much more moderate Republicans had not only been nominated but won office.
These are the tides of politics. Sometimes the right-most wing of the party doesn’t have the votes to get their ideal ticket, but you ride the wave, and control the ticket a decade or two later when the pendulum swings your way. Why? Because as bad as a McCain presidency might seem, an Obama or Hillary presidency is far worse.
You don’t agree? Then try undoing Hillary care in 2012 (0r worse, 2016) after President H. R. Clinton and a Democratically controlled congress have made it law and put it in force. Good luck wresting that goody from the paws of a greedy public who will refuse to give away what they think is an honest to goodness freebie from their most wonderful and matriarchal government.
I have a question for Conservatives who claim that there is something honorable about not voting for McCain. Who spend more of their time beating down a fellow Republican, while ignoring the extreme liberal forces that are about to kick their butts completely out of every branch of government.
This is not just about who will be President for 4 years. There is a movement afoot to wipe conservative thought completely from all aspects of public life…. While conservatives sit home and complain.
You’ll trade 50% of McCains ear for zip out of the liberal who is convinced any kind of conservative thought is archaic. Great strategy!
What is honorable about sitting on your butt at home, refusing to vote – allowing all branches of government to be swarmed by RABIDLY liberal opponents who have vowed to undo everything conservatives have fought to achieve over the past decade?
I hear endless whining and griping from Conservatives – while the extreme liberals, who are bent on reversing every conservative principal – out number us at the polls nearly two to one. Is that principal or do conservatives just have a death wish to see our country turn to the extreme left (who has no problem getting their hind ends to the polls)..
What is so conservative about beating down the (soon to be) nominee who supports our troops, instead of the extreme liberals who insult our troops and degrade them every single day in front of the entire world?
By punishing John McCain for not being conservative enough – you are really punishing all conservatives by making absolutely sure they will be governed by radical, rabid liberalism for the next 4 to 8 years.
By stomping your feet and refusing to help, you in turn assure that the laws of the land will have few conservatives in a position of power to stop a runaway liberal train that will further infiltrate our school, explode your tax burden and socialize every part of your life it can.
If you must be dragged to the polls, then don’t bother complaining when our courts are swarmed by the liberals who will put judges in power.
Please think twice before punishing the rest of us conservatives, who may not love McCain, but are smart enough to realize the living nightmare that will ensue, if things continue on the path they are going.
I see nothing conservative about being so focused on the anthill, you completely ignore the volcano that’s about to wipe your entire cause out. That is not principal. That’s political suicide. Will conservatives ever learn?.

Well, Danny, you sure don’t understand that Mr. McCain is also a big gub’ment Socialist, too. The question is which Socialist do you want to vote for? Do you have evidence that Mr. McCain will actually nominate a true constructionist to the bench rather than another Souter? I keep asking you Republicans but you run for the nearest exit! Why do you not support your apocalyptic scenarios with facts and evidence?
What evidence do you have that Mr. McCain is pro-free speech? Because McCain Feingold shows that he’s not!
Will McCain truly not support SCAMnesty for illegals? Well, we know the FACTS and EVIDENCE for that question. “I hear you, I get it. I’ll secure the border FIRST . . . .”
crickets chirping
Oh, then I’ll sign a bill to grant SCAMnesty to 20 million law breakers!
What evidence do you have that he is for lower taxes? Because he has a flipflop voting pattern in such matters and then justifies it by saying by “We don’t want to give tax cuts to the rich.” The same ole class warfare rhetoric you hear from any other lib! How is McCain any different than the guns and butter democrat Johnson? Almost a spittin’ image!
Consider this, that McCain has been reaching across the aisle so much that he has lost his grip and connection with true conservatives, because you can’t hold onto both since the chasm is as wide as the Grand Canyon and one of them has to let go in this case it’s the true conservatives.
What part of “McCain woos Conservatives” do you not get? He is not a Conservative! If McCain was so concerned about the leftward march of our gov’t don’t you think he would be acting more conservative himself instead of acting like another liberal?
Why should we care when he doesn’t care?
As far as your concerned if you are so freaked that those who are voting 2 to 1 democrat then what have you done to get more conservatives registered to vote? The responsibility for this calamity lies squarely on the shoulders of every RINO in the Republican party and especially McCain! The conservatives did nothing to cause this problem thus they can not repair it!
And by the way, Danny, I don’t sit home and do nothing. I am one of the most actively participating voters you will ever meet. I don’t advocate anyone sit home on election day, but I refuse to be guilted tripped, or told about some made up fear of impending doom because I didn’t support McCain. The Mav, and his acolytes don’t even believe that scare mongering narrative themselves because if they did they would have acted more conservative themselves thus gotten the conservative support.
You cant’ have it both ways, Danny! Either you are a conservative or you aren’t!
That’s the true test and I don’t see them freaking out over a Hill win, so why should I?
Thanks and I do welcome further debate on this issue!
It’s important that the RINOs are sent a clear and loud message that they will not win within the R party. If they are serious about making a difference they need to take their moderate stand over to the Democrat Party because it is they who need moderation not the R party!
Let’s reverse the tide to the Right not the left.
The question isn’t will conservatives learn. The question is will RINOs ever learn?
