Tuesday, Mark played the comments by Bill Cunningham at a rally in which McCain denounced. John McCain is such a jerk!
I’m sorry folks, but McCain is making it really, really hard to swallow the idea of casting a vote his way this November.

That’s the truth, MLF. I voted on a Newsmax poll today re who McLame should pick as a running mate. The choice listed first (coincidentally – or not) is the one who would really sway me into voting somewhat confidently for McCain. And that’s Newt Gingrich.
I don’t see it happening but it’s what I would like and could get behind, big time. And another of my “pipe dreams” is that McCain would step aside after four years which would put Newt in the running for the next four.
Heh. Yeah, I know. What am I smoking?
Even if Hillary Clinton made that speech he would have renounced it. I believe the only person that could have done that job, against Obama, for McCain, would have been his mother.
After he becomes President I wouldn’t be surprised if he changed his Party affiliation. Then maybe he could treat them the way he treats us and cross the aisle to make deals with us the way he currently does with them.
This episode weighs heavily on the “cringe” factor for me as far as McCain is concerned. I agree with the previous poster – How are we supposed to trust this guy? Once he’s in, he’s liable to say, “screw the conservatives/republicans” and do whatever he wants. He’s vindictive, it seems, and is definitely a loose cannon and if his strategy is to cozy up to “independent” and democrats by humiliating conservatives, I don’t get it?!? Except maybe a political “deathwish”.
Task, after who becomes president? You don’t honestly think McCain has a chance to win, do you?
The poetic irony/justice in all this is even if McCain were able to pull it off, a democrat controlled Congress, even with his buddies in there, is guaranteed to torpedo any positive policy coming from him anyway, if only to ensure burying the republicans once and for all since they’ll be blamed for anything he does that goes wrong. My money is going to republicans running congressional elections instead. We have got to make sure to cover ourselves regardless of who wins in order to stop this madness.
McCain was 100% correct.
The future President of the USA cannot be seen to be a petty racist. Obama’s middle name should and will not not be an issue. Give McCain the chance to debate Obama on substantial points like foreign policy health care etc. now is not the time.
So how do we fix this? Take out the Hussein and you have BO. That wouldn’t be right. I propose we call him, “Obama Barack the Lawyer” or OBL for short. How’s that?
Go get ‘em Willie! You’re a GREAT American!
MLF,
I thought someone would be astute enough to pick up on what I said. McCain can win. He will win. In fact anyone can win because the opposite side is taking one remarkable giant step towards socialism in such a pugnacious, arrogant and ostentatious manner that they will never hold the fabric together for the next eight months. The devil we know is better than the devil we don’t know. They are fighting each other with Marxist ideology and they are not coming at us stealth like and beneath the radar the way they usually do. Such tactics and arguing are OK on the inside but not when you let the other side see it so clearly. They are frightening people towards McCain.
I am especially upset because any candidate we would have chosen could trash these bozos, yet we picked McCain. Or rather the media and the RNC did.
The reason I liked Romney is because he was a conservative outsider that was not wedded to obligations. He used his money. Most importantly he understood one thing very well. That was economics. Freedom and liberty are based upon economics. They are indistinguishable. They are one and the same. Liberty and freedom are not just about reduced choices or frank incarceration. The Constitution addresses this in so many ways.
The Originalists preferred a representative government by people who were not career politicians but were in fact regular Americans who sacrificed their time and effort to help govern. They did it for the good of the Country, as a calling, but they would have preferred to do their regular thing. The only other candidate like that was Thompson. Too bad, so sad.
One caveat to the above opinion. It holds true provided McCain is not hiding some bomb that the NY Slimes would be only too willing to ignite come mid-October.
Task, you and I know what Obama is all about, but the average American voter that doesn’t understand or pay attention to politics is totally clueless! They will vote for Obama because he sounds good. It’s really that simple.
The disturbing trend seems to be that the obamamania camp is distorting and slanting any criticism of his “Obamanence” into something racial as in this case. The democrats are clever in likening Mr.Cunningham to Louis Farrakhan which is absurd. But it suits their purposes to associate passionate conseratives with the looney fringe of their party. That way his past and present questionable activities and philosophies can slip by under the radar. There’s a counter-racism creeping into the presidential race that makes me uneasy and McCain’s handling of this situation just adds fuel to the fire.
MLF, when Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich stated that Clinton was presidential material and had an 80% chance of becoming President I swallowed hard and took a deep long look at their conclusions from the vantage point of the street. I come out of NY where I spend a fair amount of time in the epicenter of liberaldom; I also constantly fly back and forth to Florida, which is far more moderate and finally I attend many 4-5 day CE programs where I see a cross section of the entire world. Clinton was a media creation. She was expected to be a presidential nominee at the inception of becoming the junior senator from NY. She has been media groomed for years. That was before there was an Obama. The drive-bys have switched horses and Obama is their work in progress. He is a masterful illusion not unlike a David Copperfield creation. Clinton is nasty, angry, arrogant, stupid and duplicitous and carries a ton of baggage. They were smart to move their money off these glaring inadequacies. Obama is warm, funny and not as dumb as Clinton and has genuine glib, natural presentation skills that he has honed and polished.
They are both extreme socialists delivering the exact same leftist message and programs and that is why the media will support the one most likely to fool the most. Simply put Obama is dueling with a generic socialist (Clinton), not unlike himself, that has an affection index of a negative 180. He has a natural advantage and she has an unnatural disadvantage.
Now let me place this in the light of the frank, colloquial vernacular of the world outside of the spin of he MSM and the primaries. The Jewish population will not vote for Obama. They lived with Dinkins in NY and suspect racism and an anti-Israel, pro Arab sentiment. They understand what Farrakhan and Jackson have been saying and they see the racist flavor of Obama’s minister. I believe they are correct. There has always been a dislike by the Latino community for blacks and a similar dislike the other way around. McCain has acquired a strong Latino affection and they will also vote against the blacks. Every population subgroup I mentioned I speak with and reach deeply into their voting sentiments. Obama has also been artificially supported by the anti-Clinton voters, of which there is no small number.
Now you and I know that these are not good reasons to vote. We vote based upon a solid understanding of freedom and liberty and who best will see the Constitution as the document that spells out Presidential duties and restrictions. Thank the public education system for most voters having not a clue in this regard. Every Country has an education process, which supports its’ guiding principles and philosophies while we have one that argues against us.
Now lets get to Obaba squaring off with a war-hero who can at least articulate some conservative principles so that there is a clear demarcation between some positions. National security is foremost. Spending is another. There is not enough money in the World to support one half of the proposed Clinton/Obama programs. Unfortunately the two biggest, on the ground, generic problems we face are immigration and energy independence. Here both candidates will dance. McCain has exactly the same history as Obama. On balance neither will gain nor lose ground on either issue but I think the odds favor McCain because of the wall. On Security and spending he has a clear advantage.
As far as I am concerned I despise McCain because we could have the whole enchilada. He understands not a wit about economics and a trade deficient based primarily on energy importation. Dittos for inflation. He is poor on understanding the role of the open border security threat. He may be good on pork but that is small change compared to entitlement spending of which a glaring portion is related to illegals. He does not understand free speech and has actually been an impediment to change with McCain/Feingold that favors incumbents. I could go on. All this is important to us and many others but the real positions I alluded to in the aforementioned paragraph will decide this election. Once again this is provided that he is not hiding any Rezko’s or Auchi’s that have yet to be aired.
There is nothing anyone could say to get me to cast my vote FOR McLame. However, I’ve always said that I’d never put politics before what is best for our country. If I had to cast a vote AGAINST a Marxist/Stalinist lib who wants to run our country into the toilet, I could justify that. BUT…
As was said here in an earlier post, we all know that McLame is a nasty, vindictive, SOB. His disregard for the 1st Amendment is well documented in the form of McLame/Feingold.
Considering those things, my major concern with McLame is, after he is elected, his wrath against conservative talk radio and conservatives in general. This incident with Bill Cunningham is just a small sign of things to come. Trust me.
You think the Dems want the “Fairness Doctrine” to silence conservative talk radio? Just wait until McLame gets into the White House. I expect that this will happen within the first 100 hours of his administration.
Call me paranoid but I think my fear is well founded.
FireFighter(formerly)4Bush, What irks me so much is that I cannot substantially disagree with much of what you have said. We really got screwed. It’s just a matter of degree.
Regardless of whichever way the wind blows next November, we have only yet begun to be screwed.
FireFighter, you summed it up perfectly!
Ouch!
It might surprise you Firefighter(formerly)4Bush that Sen. McLame is one of the co-sponsors of the Senate version of The Broadcasters Freedom Act … a bill designed to prevent the FTC or the President from ever enacting The Fairness Doctrine without a vote from Congress.
It might NOT surprise you, however to know that both the House and the Senate version of The Broadcasters Freedom Act are stalled in committee and have not yet been brought to a vote.
I am of the opinion that first and foremost conservatives need to start a grassroots effort to bring both versions of The Broadcasters Freedom Act to a vote BEFORE November’s election at which point we might lose our precious conservative talk radio.
This is another thing I need to call and talk to ML about!!
