What These Eyes Have Seen

To those who support McCain, I ask you to please examine the integrity of McCain today. I say "today" because there's no question that your candidate had tremendous integrity when confined as a P.O.W. I salute him for that. However, since he came home in the early 70's I think he has gradually allowed himself to be seduced by continual compromises in which he slowly abandoned his integrity in the name of political progress or trying to "get things done".

A recent example of this is last week's GOP debate. He claimed that Mitt is a "flip-flopper" because he raised (essentially) "taxes" in the form of "fees" though Romney pledged to not raise taxes. Did Romney raise millions for Massachusetts in the form of fees? Absolutely. Romney's answer? The "fees" in question had not been increased for many years, some of them for decades, and the fees were things that did not affect everyone. In other words, all MA citizens did NOT have to pay these fees. He gave an example of a fee for the state installing a McDonald's sign on the side of an interstate.

McCain gave numbers about the cost of Massachusetts' state-mandated health care program. Romney's answer? McCain's number was incorrect (it was too high) AND McCain was also using numbers of the CURRENT cost of the program AFTER Romney left the office of governor. Romney clearly said that his successor (a Democrat governor) had added expensive options / "bells and whistles" to the health care program that Romney would not have added were he still governor.

McCain used multiple statistics attacking Romney on the status of Massachusetts' economy. Romney's answer? McCain was using numbers that INCLUDED a period of time BEFORE Romney took office. When Romney gave McCain the statistics from his time in office, (surprise) McCain's iron-clad "facts" were nowhere near as bad as McCain claimed.

The incidents above occurred within the first 30 minutes or so of the debate. Go search on the internet and watch the debate yourself.

So McCain is either: A) very uninformed and altogether ignorant of the facts needed to effectively debate Romney or B) he knows the facts which Romney easily refuted (BTW, no one in the press has been refuting Romney's facts) but he purposely tried to misrepresent Romney's leadership.

This means McCain is either unintelligent (doubtful) or he lacks the integrity to portray his opponent as he really is. You be the judge.

Please, please look at the man you are supporting. Would McCain protect America from terrorists? Yes, I believe he would. However, Romney can do that too (you don't have to be a mechanic to know how to drive a car....yes, that's an over-simplified example but you get my drift) and MORE. Romney has integrity and a graciousness / public "smoothness" that America desperately needs in our next President because as our leader he will undoubtedly have to work with

So let me get this straight, Romney is a "flip-flopper" because he changed his "public" position on gay marriage, stem cell research, and abortion. He took the position that since it was legal in Massachusets he would support the law. During his stint as governer,he recognized that these were the incorrect public positions, with some research, and some heart felt consideration, he change his position while governer of Massachusets. Truth be known he ruled against these 3 items through out his governership of Massachusets.
Now McCain is all of a sudden a "conservative" because he says he will cut taxes, support free speech, and "secure the border" first in the middle of the campaign. But his public and private positions have all been against these things??? Not only did McCain vote for against these issues, he SPONSORED the bills.

Who is the flip flopper? The man who makes a constructive change to better match his private beliefs which in every action in public life truly supported, or the man that on the campaign trail all of sudden says he will now be "conservative", but has NEVER been.
Who do we believe the record or the LIE?

And as for Huckabee, now he says he believes McCain. He says he believes the "Conservative" lie from McCain over the record of Romney. Maybe it's a personal issue. Romney, is a deeply religous man all of his life and fiercly devoted to his disabled wife and children. McCain, albiet an American Hero, left his disabled wife and children because he was constantly cheating on her and found greener pastuer's with a millionare wife who he married a month after divorcing his first wife. I guess it must be something else. Hmmm V.P. spot anyone... I feel sorry for those who voted for Huckabee. Because apparently, he is only "using" his constituency to for his own personal gain and prejudices.

So who do you vote for, The Conservative Recod, The Liberal Lier, or the Preacher who back ups the liberal lie... I am voting for the Record.

Everyone is trying to decide which candidate they hate the least to vote for. Forget evaluating intelligence, integrity, and genuine desire to govern for the people--we are being forced to vote for the least corrupt criminal. What happened to our nation? This assumes the media get there way in excluding Romney.

This assumes the media get there way in excluding Romney.

What is wrong with the electorate? Has America been dumbed down so much that it is possible to be duped by an utter thug like McCain? Let me guess; McCain is being hailed because he ripped off the American taxpayer more than 1 trillion dollars to bail out his fellow crooks in the S&L scandal (Keating 5). Or do so many like McCain because of his lawlessness in sponsoring a bill to give amnesty to 10s of millions of illegal aliens? Or do so many trust McCain's sterling character, seeing the way he committed adultery against his first wife? Wake up America, before we end up with another tyrant bent on destroying the Constitution and our nation as a whole, just to usurp and abuse power for his own gain. If anyone represents what is wrong in Washington, it is certainly McCain. He is an utter arrogant thug that can be seen from 200 miles away, if Americans would only open their eyes half way.

Actually, I think that psychiatric assessment would be prudent at this time; before McCain goes off and screws up the Presidential race and possibly the Presidency itself. It's ironic this story leads with that, becasue week in and week out, the longer this race goes, he seems more and more deranged. I just recognized that and commented to my friend last week after the crazy hateslinger whined about Romney's "negative" attacks. What a nut. God help us if he gains more power.

I'm basically burnt out hearing about Romney-McCain, Hillary-Obama. What real solutions has any of them put on the table that's not going to keep the country in an economic dirt pit, or raise our taxes. The media-hidden truth is that Ron Paul offers solutions that do well to fix the issues long term.

Let's all remember McCain was one of the "Keating 5". That's right, the group involved with stealing life savings from old people. I could never trust him with being my President.

McCain is a walking time bomb!!! His endorsement by two other Rambo types is an indication of the character that he has been all his life. He has a WAR LORD mentality and a vicious vendictive spirit. Can you emagine him cursing the head of another government because they would not agree with him on some point that he had set his mind on. We need a COOL head in the presidency and a ROCK HARD REPUBLICAN in the White House not someone who we have to drop in a tub of Ice Water.

McCain is not a cowboy. He is more like the gunfighter that is hired by the frontier town or cattlemen to clean out the bad guys and the squatters. He is quick on the trigger, can be mean as hell when needed and puts up with no one if they are bad. The townspeople do not like him or his tactics, mothers don???t want their children near him but they do not fault his violent ways because they are very effective.

Then after the gun slick has done the job that no one else can do, usually with high body count of bad guys, he is shunned by the more civilized townspeople. They usually hang them or run them out of town for the sake of progress.

The grave situation we find ourselves in this country today calls for a man of ability, courage and a special talent to mix it up with the bad guys. He needs to go toe to toe with the greedy, extremist and undemocratic Middle Eastern outlaws. He must pursue the unpopular policy of bucking big oil, pushing serious alternative energy policies and programs putting this country quickly on the track to energy independence. This is the most important issue in the campaign. Solve it and a lot of other social, economic and foreign policy problems will go away.

Sorry I do not see the current crop of candidates that even come near the iron will and patriotism of John McCain. All the nice-guy Presidents historically have been walked all over and the country was made to pay for their weaknesses in vast treasure and countless American lives.

Maybe the polish is not there but Clint Eastwood???s characters never tried to be polite or worry about image, except to intimidate the evil ones. Push come to shove I would rather have a decorated, proven yet politically savvy old warrior at the helm than self-serving promise-breaking, touchy-feeling wimps who hesitate and always try to be PC. There is no perfect candidate but pick one that stands a chance of doing something to keep our nation strong, free and safe. VOTE MCCAIN.

When McCain unlocks the records of the Vietnam POW/MIA's, (and his own), and shows respect for the remaining POW/MIA family members, I may return the show of respect. But until then, all I remember is his having called them a bunch of corrupt trouble-makers without honor.
When he referred to the late sightings of hillside stampings,(including SOS and individual code names), by possible POW/MIA's in southeast asia as frauds without investigating a single one, I remember the first repatriated POW, Navy pilot, Lt. Dieter Dengler, who had stamped out an SOS and was waiting there with it to die if not rescued. Who gave John McCain the earthly rigtht to refer to those sightings as frauds?
To me it is John McCain who is without honor.
Have him as President? Never!!

www.rcjorgensen2008 Tired of Republicans and their money games. Don't trust Democrats? Choose a new direction for our Country. Obama speaks of change, yet he has a Harvard degree and wants to ride the wave of change, sounds like a spoiled surfer to me. John Mc Cain is a great american hero. He is old, but he ain't stupid I really don't like Rommney either and think he has spent more than the campaign law regulate. More of weathy arrogance like Obama. No vote for me, I went to Community College and graduated from State with an engineering degree. We can fix our woes with honest leadership! Vote www.rcjorgensen2008.com

Dumping the old [who helped and were in office when this current conflict was financed by the USA] and going with the new. Who is shown his ability to tap those who know more, and listen, and knows the generation which suffers the most, TODAY, is not a bad idea! As it is, who ever McCain picks as VP will be running the country more than he, due to his age! Its time to pray heavely that he choses a better VP than DAN QUAIL, or CHENEY, cause Bush aside, neither of these men have the intell to run a hot dog stand, unless they can shake it down, for cash! Those who spent the least amount of time in office remember where they are from, and what it cost to get here! McCain is a good man and a very honerable Veteran, but as he did not get in during the last term, when his skills were needed most, would have been nice. He is past his time as of today, cause look at the pictures, every 4 years in the WH adds 20 years to you! I feel McCain does not have that much to give! We all talk about getting rid of all the dead wood in DC, cause they are out of touch, [excellent idea] but this also includes McCain, as he has been in DC for a very very very long long time! Retirement is better. As we are forced into at that age, or way before! His age is to old to "rule the world" when we need someone to "run the country"! So our soldiers have something great to fight for, not political gain!

I respect McCain just as much as the next person. The things he must have endured, his courage, and now he has lived a long life. But when deciding who is going to be our next president, it shouldn???t be based his POW experience. You are deciding who is going to lead this country, not who you most pity. All soldiers go through hardships, that is what happens in war, it isn???t supposed to be fun. This is all propaganda and doesn???t prove that he is a good leader. We need to decide on who will make the best decisions in the White house, which can help put money back into the people???s wallets and stop Washington from spending us into economic collapse. We need to fix Social Security, the hundreds if not thousands of dollars that seem to be stolen from our pay checks every year knowing we may never see our hard earned money again. We need to advance in Technology in a race our companies are loosing to others overseas. Our Military needs to grow to keep our country and people safe in the future. We cannot spread peace, let alone survive, in this fragile world with a weak one. In order to do this we need to fix our economy, make it strong again. Who you choose is up to you, so please look past the leftwing media and think for your self. I personally believe McCain, Clinton, and Obama are ill-equipped, and overall won???t change the trend of how we live now and into the future. I feel Romney can improve our lives and our country, and he will. He has always succeeded, no matter how difficult the hand he has been dealt. If you don???t agree with what I say, that???s fine; all I want is for you to choose for yourself. Do research, have an open mind, and decide.

This long time Democrat notes and more Independent of late - McCain is the genuine article. McCain uniqueness stands out because of that. Those charachteristics and history together with a perseverance and ability to learn served McCain and this country well. Growth and wisdom are the fruits of those qualities, the time, difficulty and scars are the costs. I prefer candidates that are less attractive and more substantive. If nothing else McCain has forced substance to the top of the list of qualities required for presidential candidates. Not a bad place to start from in my book.

Colette Duranleau

McCain is a national hero and deserves his chance to sever as the President of the counrty he so loved that he gave years of his life for it. Detractors say that he is a Bush clone and that is not so. He is practical. Wars are not new and peace has been the objective after the frenzy dies down every time. Time is changing and so is the world. We need to be prepared for the future and McCain is well versed in the uglyness of war, so much so that he would not in fact continue any war without serious purpose. He has the knowlege and inside information, the knowlege of where to get information and the ability to listen to others and make sound judgment in cases of emergency. Tried and True.
