    John McCain is not a true conservative. He is trying to "make nice" to get the far right onto his side, but he will not be an successful attempt. As a far right conservative, I would have to hold my nose voting for him. He is such a phony, temperamenal , and lying individual. I am so sorry that the Republicans don't have a better choice. We have one in Mr. Huckabee but, of course, the media is treating Mr. Huckabee as a backwoodsy moron who just fell of the turnip truck. And, he is a former Baptist minister to boot, which is an anathema to the elite, know-it-allish media.

    Every democrat's favorite Republican is about to pass his "best if used by date". This is a watershed election and we cannot put up another Bob Dole against their Bill Clinton (Barack Obama). America is a big country, not just the edges of the left but an entire legitimate nation between the coast and ignored by the msm. Mike Huckabee is our candidate and he will win in November.

    Greetings,
    Ralph Waldo Emerson???s Concord Hymn was published in 1837 about the "Shot heard round the world" that began the American Revolution. Those words described something very crucial that happened in our country???s history; that shot heard around the world proved to be important and changed our future. Our future???..

    I would like to introduce my choice for president by directing you to his website www.tommillican.com. He has dubbed his election effort as a ???Return to Excellence.??? He received inspiration for his election effort from the phrase ???American Exceptionalism???. Historically it refers to a belief, as is his belief; America differs ???qualitatively??? from all nations.

    We believe America has an exceptional position among countries and America should not be bound by ???International Law.??? Yet, there are those who want to see America under the control and legalities. As you will hear in his video our forefathers and I believe God chose America to be that ???beacon on the hill??? to serve as an example to the world. He further believes America is so blessed and these blessings provide America to be independent as its leader should be. So fire another ???Shot heard round the World.??? Elect Tom Millican president in 2008.

    From your report, it sounds like Mr. McCain has the credentials that the GOP endorses - right down to the media blackout. They like to control those kinds of things. It's urgent that we go and vote for the Democrat who is running against the GOP.

    McCain as president will have one effect..a civil war again in this country. This time it will be to the death of this country if another republican is elected. Look what Bush has done, McCain will be another Bush. Kiss the country goodbye.

  • Posted By: Conservative Dan @ 02/04/2008 11:59:58 AM

    Let us look at McCain???s conservative credentials:

    -IMMIGRATION: he wrote the bill granting amnesty to illegal immigrants
    -TAXES: he voted against the Bush tax cuts multiple times (he has since flip-flopped and has campaigned as a lifelong tax-cutter)
    -PROFESSIONAL ETHICS: ringleader of the infamous Keating 5 ethical scandal which cost US tax payers $160 billion (Google it)
    -PERSONAL ETHICS: McCain cheated on his first wife after she had a severe accident that left her partially disabled. He then divorced her and married his multi-millionaire mistress, whose daddy bought McCain a spot in the Congress

    The world must know....
    HOW DID IT HAPPEN HERE ?
    Native Americans: Navaho Indians are the targets of brutal genocide right here
    in Arizona, USA ...by Sen. John McCain & the help of a few greedy Senators

    SYNOPSIS: A Massachusetts / West Virginia coal company working directly with John McCain displaced thousands of Navaho onto a Nuclear Waste Dump to live after brutalizing them for two decades. McCain assembled (Navaho Resettlement Act and Navaho Accommodation Agreement) illegal enactments designed to force Native American Navaho of the Dineh Band off their Arizona lands, moving them onto Church's Hill in Nevada, depriving them of lands they've owned since 1500 AD. so that a Coal Company can exploit their lands for personal gain. In exchange, three Presidential runs by McCain have been backed by that company and its Nevada Casino clients, and McCain's wife has been granted huge Beer distribution contracts at her company.
    Click Here to enter site... Holocaust of the Native Americans by the Johns: McCain - Kerry - Rockefeller and Teddy Kennedy / Bill Clinton / Al Gore. The Navaho Resettlement led to the deaths of thousands of elders and mass radiation based deformities among newborn Navaho children and youngsters. The accompanying thuggery and theft of property, fencing out of rangelands, cattle seizures, water well cappings and beatings and other indignity has led to the death of thousands of elder grandfathers and mothers of the Navaho Di'neh Nation, a birth defect rate twice the national average has led to UN & EU condemnations! Navaho are full US citizens!
    Over the past decade, McCain's illegal activities against the Dineh Navaho led to the issuance of the very first UN Human Rights condemnation of the USA: an official condemnation that held John McCain and his peers responsible for spearheading this illegal land seizure, coal seizure without payment of licensing rights, and rape of the land. A very hypocritical group of Senators, Reed, Rockefeller, Kennedy, Kerry and others along with Bill Clinton were also investigated. However, McCain was cited as the principal party responsible for the Human Rights Violations! A paid media blackout followed that prevented coverage of the events that displaced and killed the Dineh Navaho by the US Press! We must keep this story alive!

    Our household has voted Republican for 50 years, but we will NOT vote for John McCain. He speaks with a politician's forked tongue and is not trustworthy. A significant number of our Republican friends agree. Gov. Mitt Romney is our favorite. Our nation needs HELP and Gov. Romney is who we trust most to deliver the efficiency, spending control and fiscal management so desperately needed. But it is up to the voters. Either we elect a good man like Gov. Romney or we all suffer the consequences. .

    • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 02/02/2008 4:31:03 PM

      Romney has never stuck to his values or agenda. NEVER. He switches on major issues such as abortion. gays, socialized health ins. etc., and to top it off, he is prominent in a satanic cult. And you call him a good man.

    Though John McCain was a POW from 1967--1973, sadly having survived that experience does not mean that he "deserves" to be President. He has no more "right" to that position than any of the other candidates. The ads that John McCain is presently running on TV are just not quite true. The ads state "While a POW in Viet Nam, John McCain was inspired by the Reagan revolution........ One then hears John McCain say how proud he is to have been one of the foot solderis for Ronald Reagan. OK---let's check the facts.----Ronald Reagan ran for the presidency in 1980 ( seven years after John McCain's return)---so it would have been impossible for that POW to have been inspired by Reagan at the time of his captivity and that is what the ad is stating. Further, Mr. McCain did not go to Washington, DC until 1983 as an elected member of the House of Representatives. So, what exactly is a "foot soldier" for Ronald Reagan?? Did he work on his campaign??? Hmmm.......maybe for Ronald Reagan's second term??? The information being put out before the American people is distorted and just plain not true. Seems like Mr. McCain is a master of not only distorting Mitt Romney's record, but has a knack of distorting his own! Kind of makes you wonder, huh???

    McCain does not seem to fit the definition of a true conservative. Aside from being extremely pro-war he's very liberal with everything else. I'm voting for Ron Paul on Tuesday.

    McCain is past the point of "frontrunner". He is the likely nominee. Romney is down to the Mormon vote and not much else. After Tues. maybe the Mormons can put him in charge of the "baptize a dead Jew" program.

    John McCain -
    Founding Member of the Keating Five
    Back in the old days, defendants in famous trials got numbers -- the Chicago Eight, the Gang of Four, the Dave Clark Five, the Daytona 500. McCain was one of the "Keating Five," congressmen investigated on ethics charges for strenuously helping convicted racketeer Charles Keating after he gave them large campaign contributions and vacation trips.
    Charles Keating was convicted of racketeering and fraud in both state and federal court after his Lincoln Savings & Loan collapsed, costing the taxpayers $3.4 billion. His convictions were overturned on technicalities; for example, the federal conviction was overturned because jurors had heard about his state conviction, and his state charges because Judge Lance Ito (yes, that judge) screwed up jury instructions. Neither court cleared him, and he faces new trials in both courts.)

    Though he was not convicted of anything, McCain intervened on behalf of Charles Keating after Keating gave McCain at least $112,00 in contributions. In the mid-1980s, McCain made at least 9 trips on Keating's airplanes, and 3 of those were to Keating's luxurious retreat in the Bahamas. McCain's wife and father-in-law also were the largest investors (at $350,000) in a Keating shopping center; the Phoenix New Times called it a "sweetheart deal."


    Mafia ties:
    In 1995, McCain sent birthday regards, and regrets for not attending, to Joseph "Joe Bananas" Bonano, the head of the New York Bonano crime family, who had retired to Arizona. Another politician to send regrets was Governor Fife Symington, who has since been kicked out of office and convicted of 7 felonies relating to fraud and extortion.

    Family Problems
    McCain has a reputation as a politician who has difficulty keeping his pants zipped, according to Republican sources. He acknowledges that his adultery broke up his first marriage. His second wife Cindy, the daughter of a wealthy Budweiser beer distributor, was addicted to prescription narcotics and even stole hard drugs from a medical charity that she ran. McCain acknowledges that she didn't want him to run, and only agreed once he promised that she doesn't have to go to New Hampshire or Iowa.

    Comment: The last thing we need in this country is another confused disconnected old guy from the vietnam era making decisions about how we should guide this country into the future. Guys like mccain and bush are always trying to figure out how to go backwards rather than forwards i.e. the last 8 years.... We have to have a young progressive thinker, i'm sick of wars, stop with the warring you freakin' old people, us young people have found better things to do with our time, like solve the problems you old idiots keep creating. WE DON'T CARE YOU WERE IN VIETNAM. What the hell does anything have to do with vietnam man! -Lebowski

    If John McCain is elected our next president, I believe that he will be rated by future historians as the right president at the right time. Yes the economy is very important because it is so evident. How we settle the terorists threat is really the most vital of the vital. Can you imagine how this country would re-act if the terrorist used a 'dirty' atomic weapon in one of our major cities that would leave such radiation that it would be like chernoble (sp?) in Russia and not habitable for thousands of years? I have served in the Marine Corps and was Fire Direction Officer when atomic bombs were in their infancy after WWII. I attended ABC schools (Atomic,Biological, and Chemical threats). Every other isssue is a far second. I am in my seventies but I want to feel that the youth of this country will enjoy their life safely and be willing to take and RECOGNIZE what seems invisible to some.

      I feel for you brother! WHY? Because you believe that crop of *** that we are being attacked on every hand. I love America but America is not at war, BUSH and his cohorts(money loveing, oil chasing thugs)are the ones supporting this war. And sad to say but people like you are so snowed by these pack of lies it is heartbreaking. I wish I could show you the truth to let you see that this is not about our freedom but their pockets. It is a known fact that we have a history of conquerring land(including this one from the Indians) and this situation is no different. Will you beleive that? Yes you beleive it but you are so white american you would not admit it! God don't like ugly and proof is in the pudding, our economy is just the begining.

    The media (as well as many prominant Republican) are eagerly pushing McCain, because he is the only candidate left who has any shot in an election against Obama. The only way a Republican can take office this year is if he can win moderates as well as some Democrats. McCain has shown he is that candidate, and if you are Republican you better jump on the bandwagon, because he is as conservative as it gets this election!
