Flight Pundit

This election cycle is causing a lot of uproar for Conservatives. The thought of John McCain being the GOP nominee is giving many of us headaches and sour stomachs. A number of bloggers have declared they will not support McCain - and this includes voting for him.

McCain deserves all the vile commentary coming at him. He’s a RINO; he’s the Democrats’ favorite Republican. He’s a man who throws temper tantrums; who supports illegal immigration and the businesses that wish to toss Americans from jobs they have always done…McCain voted against President Bush’s tax cuts; he favored a campaign finance deal that almost silenced ALL OF US.

McCain is going to be the ONE. We have choices. We can fully support him and his campaign against either Obama or Chillary…can’t say yet who will win the weak kneed, limp dicked Democrat nomination. We can snub McCain and write in our vote for Fred, or Mitt, or Ron. We can stay home and not participate at all.

No matter what we each decide to do, we will need to be patient.

Rick Moran takes note of an interview McCain gave to the German paper, SPIEGEL. He comes to the same conclusion about McCain as I did:

What a pandering, sycophantic, arrogant popinjay he is.

Indeed.

Reading that entire interview, there were places that you really weren’t sure if you were listening to a Democrat or a Republican, liberal or conservative. This is McCain’s identity and I guess we better get used to it. It is maddening, worrisome, even frightening at times. But that’s being a “maverick” I suppose.

I got ill reading it. It made me more angry to know I am probably going to vote for a man who panders to international, anti American hysteria and hyperbole. It upsets me see McCain bowing down to the EuropEon community and bash an outgoing President; it shames me to see this man go Al Bore on Global Warming, which is shady science at it’s best and downright lying and fear mongering at it’s worst.

It pisses me off to know this man claims to be a true conservative when he is anything BUT that. It bothers me a whole lot to KNOW that once he gets behind the desk in the Oval office, we’ll see an influx of illegal immigrants like we’ve never seen before. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Fat Teddy Kennedy and President McCain bring their awful shamesty legislation back to life. It wouldn’t shock me one bit to see our voices silenced with new laws about political speech including blogging to be regulated.

It’s a sad time in American history to know that the choices we have for our leader are not good for America…the potential and probable candidates will work hard to remove personal freedoms and choices from each of us.

SO voting for McCain may be the alternative to seeing Obama or Chillary become President; but the vote will come with a lot of mistrust, total disgust and some loss of sleep. Doing the popular thing might be to vote for McCain, but I’m not sure it’s the right thing to do. The argument of the less evils is valid, I suppose in this election.
