Word on the street is that the McCain camp is STILL considering a Pro CHOICE VP pick, & possibly the liberal on social issues, Joe Lieberman . I want to make this post simple to understand for some in his campaign who are apparently AIR HEADED. They’ve been making phone calls around the country to try & gauge the potential fallout for picking a Pro-Choicer as a VP. So here it is, very simply explained for the McCain people:
Social Conservatives & Christian Conservatives to name a couple groups, WILL NOT be able to vote for you if you do this Mr. McCain.
It’s nothing personal against you, but rather it’s a moral responsibility that we have to abide by even to death. For many it’s a direct contract in their minds between God & them. It’s not a principle that can be negotiated, bought, sold, or bartered over. It is a firm & immovable belief, & one that we wouldn’t trade for anything. Protecting the unborn is not a “poker chip” or a card that we hold, or a like a coupon that we cash in depending on what the terms of the offer are. It is a non-negotiable item for many, many, many Conservatives, & in my personal opinion, any true Conservative.
So to summarize, the McCain campaign needs a conservative PRO-LIFE candidate, or the McCain campaign will come up short on votes in November in what is sure to be a close race.
I hope I’ve made this clear enough for those McCain campaign strategists who have been contemplating the idiotic up until at least earlier today.
Let me make this clear. If John McCain picks a Pro-Choice candidate for his VP, I will not only refuse to vote for him, but I will actively campaign against John McCain. Because at least I know what Obama is, & I’ll be expecting it when we does his evil to the country. “The Devil you know” sort of thing…
Last week I wrote a rap song about Barack Obama called “He Pollin’ It“. Now McCain is going to get a sweet little folk song of his own. It’s called: “My toes just touch the Water”.. I borrowed that title from a fellow musician friend of mine. She knows who she is..
Verse I
The sun is shining, & my friends are happy.. They must be sleeping or eating taffy.
I was falling down but they picked me up, so I guess they trust me with the golden cup.
Things got so cold, & then so hot, I just wanna be warm & not get caught.
Chorus:
My toes just touch the water
My toes just touch the water
Verse II
What’s the big deal? They die all the time, that’s why we have CARE, & the March of Dimes.
It’s not my fault, what others choose, but if I do what’s right there’s a chance I’ll lose.
Is my base real hot, or is it kinda cold? I need to win this one cause I’m getting old.
My toes just touch the water
My toes just touch the water
Bridge:
Don’t let this come between us, I’m only trying to find my way.
It doesn’t mean I’m not with you, it just means I might not stay.
Chorus:
My Toes just touch the water
My Toes just touch the water
______________________________________________
Mr. McCain.. Do yourself a favor & stop ignoring the elephant that’s NOT in the room.. You need a truly Conservative VP. to offset your Rhino-ness…
I used to respect Newt Gingrich, but now he’s paling around with Kerry, Pelosi, & the like, & obviously drinking some seriously spiked kool-aid along with the rest of these politically calculating global warming nuts. Except with the earths cooling trend over the last year & a half threatening to expose the lie of Global Warming, he too uses the newest course adjusted, devious term, to describe the latest political fad of, “Climate Change“.
If you can believe it, here he is sitting with one of the Republic of the United States’ foremost enemies, Nancy Pelosi, in a propaganda ad for the Democratic Party, & the rest of the politicians who don’t have to pay for their $4.00 a gallon gasoline. He apparently no longer cares what Conservatives think, & has fallen victim to some of the brainwashing of the leftist media machine. The fake pleasentries & smiles in this video are enough to make a NYC sewer rat puke, let alone any self respecting Conservative.
Well so long Newt. Just remember, you left us, we didn’t leave you..
We knew to was coming, but I’m disappointed (so far) at the lack of counter opinions on many of the media/movie review sites.
I mean I know that this is due in part to the fact that most Conservatives have children to take care of, (because they didn’t abort them all) & because they have jobs they need to go to instead of having their hand out as a Liberal minion, or being one of those who spend their all time making sure the successful vote buying of the Democrats continues. I realize that these who collect welfare at the expense of those who are at work all day, do have more time to sit home & write more negative reviews on Ben Stein’s brilliant movie “Expelled”. However, we need to take time to defend truth, since these attackers are only interested in squashing it to protect their world views, their Government grants, & their welfare checks.
One thing that has been missed in the debate is this; How can you advocate liberal style “separation” of church & state, & then dutifully investigate intelligent design as a so called “scientist”?
The answer is, you can’t! Something has to give, or you don’t get any grant money. This is one of the reasons they hate the idea, & would rather stay in their little financial & ideological comfort zones!
The fact that these people don’t like the movie doesn’t bother me. What bothers me is the blatant lying they do while writing their reviews. Like one reviewer on Apple.com who said; “Darwin didn’t cause the Holocaust.” Nowhere in Stein’s movie does he say that Darwinism alone was sufficient to lead to the events. In fact, in the movie Stein himself says that though many of the principles of Darwin were believed by Hitler, he doesn’t think that was the only factor that led to the Holocaust. Other’s interviewed in the movie came to the same conclusion.
What is amazing to me is how badly todays Scientists have turned on science itself, & traded in the principled questioning & searching for answers, for the protection of their own political, social or religious ideologies. For instance, like it or not, their atheism is a “faith” of sorts. It takes faith to believe anything that you weren’t around to see. Scientists & Darwinists can cry all they want but that’s a fact they can’t change no matter how hard they try.
Most notably in Steins movie, the flagship or Darwinism Richard Dawkins is cornered by logic itself, into admitting that Intelligent design is possible. On a comical note though, he feebly tries to save face for the movement by suggesting that a superior race of beings could have created the first cell & then disappeared. Yes, he actually suggested Aliens were possibly responsible, but yet he call those who believe in God delusional?
Huh? If they were superior to us or God, then where did they go? & where did they come from in the first place? What did they make the cell from?
Very disappointing showing by Mr. Dawkins to say the least. It was almost sad to watch him reduced to intellectual cannon fodder by Ben Stein.
In any case, you need to ignore the flood of leftist reviews that are trying to slander the movie, & silence it. (You know, those leftist champions of free speech & the media.)
Yes, they want to silence Ben Stein, & anyone who they don’t agree with. The movie stands on it’s own, & I’d encourage anyone to go see it & make up your own mind, instead of listening to fascist liberals who will go as far as to blatantly lie about it, to convince people not to go.
I do however also encourage you to look around the web & read their venomous reviews. Ask yourself why they are so angry? Why so viscous? What are they so afraid of? If the movie is so ridiculous & pointless as they claim, then why are they spending their time defending Darwin & attacking Ben Stein’s “Expelled” so veraciously?
It’s because they want to pontificate to you about what’s suitable for your viewing, & tell you what you should watch. Didn’t Hitler burn books? Create a state run media? Try to control the knowledge & communication?
Go see the movie while you live in a country where you can make up your own mind. Because if you don’t? There will come a day where the right you didn’t exercise, becomes a right you’ve lost.
You gotta love You Tube (unless you’re a Democrats that is.) In 2006 the Democrats hammered away at the Republican congress over their (albeit fictitious) alliance with big oil. As part of their campaign to take over congress, they bashed the current administration over the rise in fuel costs, & promised that they would change things. Here we are 2 years later, & what has happened instead?
Well interestingly, as the Democrat led Congress’ approval ratings have gone to new record lows, the Gas prices for Americans have gone to new record highs! They’re pushing apart as polar opposites.
When the Dems took over congress, oil cost The U.S. $56 per barrel. Now? it’s $112 per barrel!
Nice work Dems!
I personally believe they (the Democrats) & a few naive Republicans were hoping to bully Big Oil companies into lowering their prices in order to look like the knights in shining armor during an election year. They got a big oil surprise though when they tried that. The big oil companies confused the congressional morons with well.. the facts! Like this one:
“We face a new reality, volatility, high prices, greater competition for resources,” said Peter Robertson, vice president of Chevron Corp., adding that he understands that “Americans see the pain” of $100-a-barrel oil.
Translation: “Why in the world can China make a deal with Cuba to drill for oil only 50 mi. off of the Florida Keys, but we are banned by the environmentalists from doing the same?”
Yes, those environmentalist idiots like Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida, who instead of being concerned about lowering the United States dependence on foreign oil, is worried that a Cuban oil spill could hurt the state of Florida’s environment and $50-billion tourism industry. He wants to block drilling in Cuba’s northern waters (& ANWAR, & even on the Beverly Hillbillies property retroactively), because his aides forgot to tell him it was only a TV show.
“Any oil spill 45 miles from Key West is going to absolutely devastate all those delicate coral reefs, the fragile Florida Keys, and would endanger pristine beaches all the way up to Fort Pierce,” said Nelson, a Democrat.
So he thinks he’s going to stop Cuba & China from doing this? If he’s so worried, why doesn’t he let the U.S., who has the best & safest oil drilling/exploration technology in the world, co-operate on energy matters with Cuba?
Interestingly also, Nelson’s own state’s environmental website doesn’t list oil exploration as a hazard to Coral Reefs, making him a double idiot for opening his mouth without even having the support of what would be presumably Florida’s leading environmental agency! In fact they list Boat anchors, ship groundings, widespread dredging, & land based sources of pollution as being the most damaging.
I’ll tell you the real reason why they don’t want us to drill while their power in the Congress is teetering on the edge of disastrous failure.. The Democrats want to hold energy over our heads just like they want to hold health care in their hands, & dangle it in front of us like a carrot at election time. That is until they get rid of those pesky election things altogether. Right now if we were to find a massive oil source with Republican president in office, & while they & the Greenbats are fighting oil exploration, it would be a devastating blow to their plans to build a fascist state controlled energy system. Well, a wise man once said that “A fact to a Liberal, is like kryptonite to Superman.”
That notwithstanding, it is my responsibility to bring you some:
Average gas price across the U.S. since this video was made has risen to $3.37 per gal today.
At the time of the making of this video about a year ago, it was around $3.00. This summer, most predict that we will hit $4.00.. Thanks to “Go Green”, for making your green go out of your wallet, & into your gas tank!
Well, I’d really like to get behind the Republican Candidate. The only problem is, we don’t have one running. What we have is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, who will sell us down the river for a song, & a bottle of Jack Daniels to swig while he sings his drunken & bitter farewell to the Republican Party. With the following speech, he has cemented my complete distrust in his ability to protect the sovereignty of the country I love. My country, the United States of America. Read the excerpts below from McCain’s recent speech on foreign policy, & pay attention to some of the frightening statements I’ve highlighted. Full Speech can be found here at one of his favorite publications.
The United States must lead in the 21st century, just as in Truman’s day. But leadership today means something different than it did in the years after World War II, when Europe and the other democracies were still recovering from the devastation of war and the United States was the only democratic superpower. Today we are not alone. There is the powerful collective voice of the European Union, and there are the great nations of India and Japan, Australia and Brazil, South Korea and South Africa, Turkey and Israel, to name just a few of the leading democracies. There are also the increasingly powerful nations of China and Russia that wield great influence in the international system.
In such a world, where power of all kinds is more widely and evenly distributed, the United States cannot lead by virtue of its power alone. We must be strong politically, economically, and militarily. But we must also lead by attracting others to our cause, by demonstrating once again the virtues of freedom and democracy, by defending the rules of international civilized society and by creating the new international institutions necessary to advance the peace and freedoms we cherish. Perhaps above all, leadership in today’s world means accepting and fulfilling our responsibilities as a great nation.
One of those responsibilities is to be a good and reliable ally to our fellow democracies. We cannot build an enduring peace based on freedom by ourselves, and we do not want to. We have to strengthen our global alliances as the core of a new global compact — a League of Democracies — that can harness the vast influence of the more than one hundred democratic nations around the world to advance our values and defend our shared interests.
At the heart of this new compact must be mutual respect and trust. Recall the words of our founders in the Declaration of Independence, that we pay “decent respect to the opinions of mankind.” Our great power does not mean we can do whatever we want whenever we want, nor should we assume we have all the wisdom and knowledge necessary to succeed. We need to listen to the views and respect the collective will of our democratic allies. When we believe international action is necessary, whether military, economic, or diplomatic, we will try to persuade our friends that we are right. But we, in return, must be willing to be persuaded by them.
America must be a model citizen if we want others to look to us as a model. How we behave at home affects how we are perceived abroad. We must fight the terrorists and at the same time defend the rights that are the foundation of our society. We can’t torture or treat inhumanely suspected terrorists we have captured. I believe we should close Guantanamo and work with our allies to forge a new international understanding on the disposition of dangerous detainees under our control.
There is such a thing as international good citizenship. We need to be good stewards of our planet and join with other nations to help preserve our common home. The risks of global warming have no borders. We and the other nations of the world must get serious about substantially reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the coming years or we will hand off a much-diminished world to our grandchildren. We need a successor to the Kyoto Treaty, a cap-and-trade system that delivers the necessary environmental impact in an economically responsible manner. We Americans must lead by example and encourage the participation of the rest of the world, including most importantly, the developing economic powerhouses of China and India.
Well John McCain, You are no Ronald Reagan, & he rejected virtually everything you’ve put forth in your speech.
Warnings came about a year ago, when John McCain cunningly eluded to his own Kerryesque “global test” philosophy. (See video below, it makes more sense now.) This is one reason why so many Democrats crossed over to vote for McCain in the primaries. Listen to what the wolf said back then. He’s is of course airing his globalist NWO out in the open completely, now that he has the nomination wrapped up & Conservatives can’t do anything about it now. In short, we Conservatives just got screwed. I will never vote for him. Personally I’d rather he got the “domestic housing crisis” wrong, & the foreign policy & sovereignty of the US right. I think our sovereignty is a wee bit more important. ~Dan Lee
When Al Gore, the global warming alarmist & professional purveyor of smoke & mirrors politics left the office as the V.P. of the US, his net worth was about 2 Million.
He is now worth over $200 million dollars, in great part to his global warming carbon credit scheme, & speaking engagements.
It didn’t take long before Light Bulb companies & car companies realized that old Al was onto a massive Cash cow, & soon the news spread to money mongers all over the world.
After that, the professional publicists began to work the phones & spend massive amounts of ad money to create a very convincing “Go Green” campaign designed to dupe the masses into accepting more “green” taxes, & the fact that we would have to absorb the costs of Gas reformulation to “Save the Polar Bear”.
Meanwhile idiots in Washington have jumped the bandwagon so as to keep in stride with the left’s intention of making this a Presidential Campaign issue. Instead of Republican’s having the courage to expose the lies from the left, they found it more expedient to go with the flow. Without ever researching the science behind it, they bought into the lie that incandescent Mercury filled light bulbs that are believed to contribute to cancer would be better for us all, & in effect, mandated their use in homes & business by the year 2012. I don’t know who’s dimmer, these bulbs, or the lawmakers who signed them into law. I do know this though, just as in the case of the reformulated gasoline, their reaching into YOUR pockets to MORE THAN cover the cost of “Going Green.” I’ve also noticed that cars are pinging more than ever, which can slowly cause engine damage. I’m looking into whether this is a result of the reformulated gas, & I suspect it is. Again, the additional costs to fix your motor will come out of YOUR pocket unless we class action the oil companies who are screwing with it. But back to those light bulbs, which are a pretty good scam I’d say.. I mean actually getting people to pay them to put Mercury poison filled light bulbs in their houses, as well as raising your cancer & migraine headache risk. Oh, & by the way, you can’t just throw a Mercury filled bulb in the trash, because it’ll end up in a landfill, & then eventually in the water supply after it rains on that land fill. So guess who will pay to dispose of them? YOU!
Meanwhile those who have pursued truth in science can barely make their voices heard, but that is beginning to change thankfully, with sound & factual articles like this one in the Boston Globe online.
It’s just another way for greedy people to get rich, & politicians to make themselves look like “Agents of Change” by touting the their accomplishments in issuing the latest pop science backed decrees on the most recent leftist, environmental feel good fad.. One name comes to mind, along with one vision. Jimmy Carter, & long lines at the pump. Gas shortages, & $5.00 a gallon gas, coming soon to a station near you. ~Dan Lee
I’m starting to see what I expected to see after the shock of a McCain nomination began to wear off, & that is a weakening in the will of true conservatives to protest his nomination.
It was a sad fact that I knew I’d have to face at some point, but I guess I thought it would happen a little later in the year, after the Republican machine hammered on us holdouts long enough to really terrorize us about the looming Democrat & Liberal threats to our way of life.
I received a letter yesterday from an un-pledged delegate who will remain unnamed. This delegate was at one point vehemently opposed to throwing behind McCain just for the sake of following the pack, but now from the comments in their e-mail, they are clearly caving to peer pressure. That’s their personal decision, & I respect that, however come hell or high water, I will not be voting for any of the candidates in this years Presidential election.
I have made a promise to do a write in vote for Michelle Malkin, in protest to the fact that she understands the needs & policy issues of our country better than most of the Republican candidates, or the Republican Congress does. Her knowledge of the relevant issues is so extensive, comparing her to Democrats is not even worth discussing.
Michelle’s hard work & dedication notwithstanding, it is truly a sad state of affairs when we cannot even muster up a handful of elected officials who have as much honesty, integrity, or ability as does a political commentator who is the child of immigrant parents. Yes that’s right, she’s a first generation U.S. citizen with more concern for this nation & intimate knowledge of it’s constitutional challenges than most of the current old guard in Washington could even shake a stick at.
We have got to give these apparently spoiled children of Democracy a wake up call, & by passing spoiled children the mighty scepter of bureaucracy, we are doing them & ourselves a grave injustice.
I do not hate the Republican party. No, rather I’m a Loving student of it’s teachings who longs to see his teacher sober again. It has become drunken on the wine of big oil kingdoms, tempted away by the politically rhetorical power of selling false guilt via carbon credits, & fattened by the pork barrel gods who promise them a choice cut of meat, in return for a quiet show of deference.
I would rather die than be a part of this Republican party corruption, & I would rather my soul live than be a part of it’s advancement in it’s current state, so I will hold my ground until 2012, & in the meantime, I will campaign for sanity along Congressional lines.
I hope that some will hear my call to political arms, & will make their voices heard through the peaceful protest against the drunken stupor of our once Conservative fathers in the Republican Party.
We Conservatives are not here to compromise, but rather we are here to follow the rules & edicts of God himself for the goodness of mankind. When we take our eyes off of God as a political party, we become a candle in the wind, & a ship without a rudder.
With the lessons of God removed, who will survive? It’s time to put the inflated ego of our party back in check. Removing these thorns in our sides will be painful, but completely necessary. ~Dan Lee
It’s kind of like Jerry Seinfeld somehow endorsing the character Newman for a day, on the show “Seinfeld”.. It would only make you laugh for a second, & doesn’t mean much in the overall plot. ~Dan Lee
SAN DIEGO - The Border Patrol says it found a metal wire strung between two border fences in San Diego in an apparent effort to inflict serious injury or even death to its agents.
The agency said the wire would be about four feet high if someone pulled on it from the Mexican side, & would be high enough to strike an officer on all-terrain vehicle in the neck, possibly severing his head.
The border patrol has been under increasing attack by would be illegal immigrants trying to cross into the US from Mexico. Full Story Here
Let’s see what Open Border Advocate, & John McCain staffer Juan Hernandez has to say about these deadly booby trapping folks who he claims are “not criminals”. Gee I don’t know Juan, I think trying to lop the heads of of border patrol agents with deviously placed piano wire might be considered illegal, don’t you? Make sure you have your high boots on, & a clothes-pin on your nose before you watch this video. I cannot be held responsible for any nausea or vomiting that may occur as a result of watching this phony patronizing liar insult your intelligence. Meanwhile the reckloose Bush Administration is inexplicably trying to give 1.5 Billion dollars of our Taxpayer dollars to Mexico to secure THEIR southern border with South America. ~Dan Lee
A friend of mine sent this to me in e-mail. Thanks Joe!
I don’t think anyone could have better illustrated the destructive path we’re on if we continue to toy with the idea of granting amnesty to illegal aliens.
Begin e-mail:
About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier:
“A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government.”
“A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.”
“From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.”
“The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years”
“During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. from dependence back into bondage”
Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law,St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Gore: 19 Bush: 29
Square miles of land won by: Gore: 580,000 Bush: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Gore: 127 million Bush: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Gore: 13.2 Bush: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: “In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Gore’s territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare…” Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the “complacency and apathy” phase of Professor Tyler’s definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation’s population already having reached the “governmental dependency” phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.
If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom. Contact your Representative in Congress, & be sure to visit the link to Michelle Malkin’s site below, which all is all about the egregious $ 1.5 billion dollar financial donation to Mexico at the expense of U.S. taxpayers to secure THEIR SOUTHERN border. May I take this opportunity to also remind you we have a 9.2 Trillion dollar deficit, much of which is owed to China.
Thanks for reading. Please pass this along to all of your friends! End e-mail.
So before the ink is even dry on the sham of a stimulus package here in the states, President Bush is working on a back room deal with Mexico for a stimulus package for them called the “Merida Initiative“, at YOUR expense. If that’s not bad enough, they are (get this) going to HELP MEXICO FUND THE SECURING OF THEIR SOUTHERN BORDER, to keep illegals out from South America.
I mean I hardly know what to say here. This is a complete betrayal of U.S. citizens by our government, who cannot even provide security on our own border. It is the outrage of outrages, & underscores the claim of many Conservatives (including myself) that the Republican Party has almost completely lost it’s mind.
To achieve this, the President has requested the following: (well under the radar mind you)
To achieve these goals, President Bush has requested $550 million as part of a multi-year program to provide:
* Non-intrusive inspection equipment, ion scanners, canine units for Mexican customs, for the new federal police and for the military to interdict trafficked drugs, arms, cash and persons.
* Technologies to improve and secure communications systems to support collecting information as well as ensuring that vital information is accessible for criminal law enforcement.
* Technical advice and training to strengthen the institutions of justice – vetting for the new police force, case management software to track investigations through the system to trial, new offices of citizen complaints and professional responsibility, and establishing witness protection programs.
* Helicopters and surveillance aircraft to support interdiction activities and rapid operational response of law enforcement agencies in Mexico.
* Initial funding for security cooperation with Central America that responds directly to Central American leaders’ concerns over gangs, drugs, and arms articulated during July SICA meetings and the SICA Security Strategy.
* Includes equipment and assets to support counterpart security agencies inspecting and interdicting drugs, trafficked goods, people and other contraband as well as equipment, training and community action programs in Central American countries to implement anti-gang measures and expand the reach of these measures in the region.
Meanwhile, we are having our men, women, children & even police officer assaulted or murdered on our own soil, by illegal aliens who keep running through that space ON OUR BORDER where they haven’t finished the border fence yet. Is anyone else feeling like there’s flaming blood spurting out of their eyes as they read this? It’s just unbelievable. Go ahead & vote for McCain & his “spanish outreach director” Juan Hernadez. Their great conspiracy to destroy America as we know it, is finally coming together. All that’s left to do is for Bush to pass the shamnesty torch to McCain. ~Dan Lee
