Rino McCain and His Ilk Say ~ And I Say
This article is such a good example of some of the things that are WRONG with my Republican party and why we don't have a conservative to vote for.
I going to post it and take it apart to give my take on some things. The parts of the article will be in quotes and my take on it will be in bold.
North Carolina Republican leaders are standing by a TV ad critical of Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama despite dissension in their own ranks and one station's refusal to air it.
Republican National Committee member Linda Shaw said Thursday she was shocked that her colleagues decided to produce and air the ad, which shows Obama with his former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, and a clip of Wright's anti-U.S. comments. "I do not support it," Shaw said. "I had nothing to do with it ... and I'm very disappointed." Shaw, a longtime party leader, said she repeatedly urged state party chairwoman Linda Daves to withdraw the spot.
This Linda Shaw person is SHOCKED? This is a response a follower of Wright would have NOT a Republican. And damn sure not a conservative. And it says she is a longtime party leader. God help us no wonder, hey Linda Shaw maybe it is time to go and join the party of PC religion, the party of the left that LOVES to take freedom of speech away. Wright had freedom of speech to say what he did then you better believe we have that same right, and we that didn't like what he said have the same right to point it out.
As for their state party chairwoman Linda Daves , I am proud of you!!!
I cannot dictate to the North Carolina Republican Party what their message is, but I condemn it and I can appeal to the overwhelming majority of Republicans in the state of North Carolina," McCain said while campaigning in New Orleans.
Oh wow McCain condemns it! I am shaking in my boots I am so afraid of this Manchurian candidate.
Democratic party officials have criticized the ad. On Thursday, state Democratic Party Chairman Jerry Meek urged Republican Sen. Elizabeth Dole to use her power to keep it off the air. "As the highest-ranking Republican in the state, you have both the ability and responsibility to erase this stain on our state," Meek said in a letter to Dole. "Your silence tells North Carolinians that you will also sanction similar gutter tactics in your own campaign." Dole said in an interview that she didn't want to get involved. "I am concentrating on getting my work done here in the Senate, and I'm just not going to get into refereeing a third-party political ad that has nothing to do with my race," she said.
Democratic Party Chairman Jerry Meek calls the ad a stain on their State? LMAO oh like Obama and his America hating wife are not a stain on our entire country!!!!
And hey Lizzie Dole, you don't want to get involved. Too bad beotch! We are at war to save America from the enemy within, our troops have their lives on the line 24/7, and you can't get involved by giving even an opinion about the ad? You say it is because it has nothing to do with YOUR own political race. Let me get this straight, you are an American right? Your race, your position in the Senate exists in OUR country the USA right? You are a citizen of this country right? Then how the hell does it not have something to do with you as well, oh and you are also a Republican right? LOL Sure keep drinking the liberal, rino kool-aid, you have been on thin ice for awhile now anyway. And what the heck...Third party? Where the heck is a third party mentioned? Unless she means that Wright is a third party to her.
Obama's campaign questioned McCain's efforts to get the ad off the air.
"The fact that Senator McCain can't get his own party to take down this misleading, personal attack ad raises serious questions about his promise to the American people that he will run a civil, respectful campaign," said Obama campaign spokesman Hari Sevugan.
Just a heads up FYI for you Hari Sevugan. McCain is NOT a representative of the conservative base of the Republican party. You have the same thing in your own party with the conservative democrats like Zell Miller vs. the terrorist loving, military hating, freedom destroying, taxes up our wazzo loving socialist/communist progressive Pelosi, Murtha. Reid, Obama, Hillarites in your party.
Therefore there is NO way McCain speaks for me now, in the past or in the future as long as he has ass parked on your side of the aisle. Got that Obama breath!!!!
Just one more thing haha.....when oh when is McCain going to stop bashing, attacking conservatives and kissing up to the Democrats????
....Thank you Mark for sending this article to me.

This is why the State of North Carolina got their nickname, the 'Tarheels', there feet were stuck in Tar to the ground and they wouldn't run if they could. And they will not be imtimidated.
The Party of McCain and the this mismosh they call the new Republican party is not my party either. The thought of voting for McCain becomes more disgusting every day or after each time he opens his mouth. Everytime he opens his mouth he manages to alienate more conservative Republicans. The answer maybe in a third party, afterall they don't seem to want us anymore.
Now he is courting Huckabee in Arkansas for the vote in that State. Huckabee is not a favorite there either.

McCain is a threesome. The constipated, moralizing bitchiness of Jimmy Carter, the arrogance and self-adoration of John Kerry, and the integrity and truthfulness of Bill Clinton in one RINO. He should appeal to lots of Donks.
I was almost persuaded to vote for the bastard, but this finishes it. I'll vote down ticket, but under no circumstances will I vote for McCain. He thinks Ayers is pertinent, but Wright is not, when the issue isn't race, it's radicalism.
I think the fight has gone out of McCain, but not his love for picking fights. This is why he assaults his friends, who are reluctant to fight back, and other Senators, because he knows someone will break it up.
He can go screw himself....which he seems to have done already.
The man is beneath contempt.

What if the GOP gave a Republican National Convention on September 1 to 4, 2008 in Minneapolis-Saint Paul and no one watched or listened? That is a real possibility the way John McCain and the GOP/RNC are turning off the voters that they need to win in November.
Every time John McCain or the GOP/RNC says or does something stupid as they have been prolifically these last couple of days remind them that you will not watch or listen to their convention in September and you will not vote for them in November. Maybe they will finally get the message.

Totally agree. He has to take these people head on. He can't squirm around like he has been doing. We really need an alternative and we don't appear to have one.

The more I read up on him, the more I dislike him.
He's unethical, unscrupulous, and cares only about one thing--him.
This country is going to Hell in a handbasket quickly.

Outstanding WT, you covered it all. Donk Duncan doesn't like me anymore, a surrogate does his bidding, but it's a good idea to keep their feet to the fire like Les points out.

I'm going to write in Fred Thompson when I vote. Their's no way I will vote for McCain.

I am pleased to see your post, because I (a Republican who at this point still cannot bring myself to vote for McCain) only recently started reading your blog not long ago and just assumed you were supporting McCain, which I thought was too bad.

ER nice to meet you.
Mostly what I have done is post about Hillary and Obama but I have done posts in the past about Fred Thompson, Duncan Hunter(my first choice), and also about McCain and all the things about McCain that I have a problem with. Like what McCain and Kerry did when on the Senate Select Committee for POW's. The McCain posts are mostly in the month of January on here.
I am a conservative so of course thinking of voting for McCain has been something that has grated on my last nerve.
Welcome to my blog ER.

"Senator McCain... North Carolina is PATRIOTIC and second to none. Their state flag is very similar to the Lone Star state's flag. Tarheels bleed red, white and Carolina BLUE. McCain - stay OUT of this sovereign state's GOP business. You failed to enforce US Border SECURITY in your own backyard! By sympathizing with Obamessiah and his militant Pasturd Wright - you are in bed with the enemy sir, like a modern day Benedict Arnold. " - The Death Star II Crew

McCain, W and their "PC' ilk failed to do the following:
CA-----AZ------NM-------TX
***landmines 1/2 mile wide***
MEXICO
It's that easy!

Oh msn, I really like Liz Dole!
Anywho, but tell me if I may be worng but..
If Hillary would have just kept her mouth shut in the begining of the race, she would have the election wrapped up. Now with McCain, same thing, if he would just shut the hell up, it is his.
Why does he enjoy reminding the conservative base that he's a RINO? Is he on Obamyomama's payroll?
Just sad.

drstrangeloveb52isok, yes and even if they only thought they were there it would be fear in them to try and cross. heh heh

navycopjoe, good to see you.
I agree it is very sad. Yes your right, if Hillary had done what you said and Bill too she would be much further ahead I think. But this thing with Obama is so weird it is like some kind of a cult movement. So werid, how they call him the Messiah and chant at his speeches. yuk
Yes your right abouto McCain too. He shoudl just keep quite and stop telling of people in his own party. I have been a Republican all my life and I never say anyone behave like McCain does to his voting base. Not good to do such a thing.

Hey navycopjoe... Our loved one just got assigned to the USS CVN Carl Vinson! I think she is the 70? And I think she was the one that the TOP GUN clips were filmed on?
