John McCain is a traitor to Conservatives

2:26 pm in Conservative Values, Gov. Sarah Palin, John McCain, Sarah Palin For President 2012, Scott Brown by skyzot63

I voted for McCain because Sarah was on the ticket, but this disturbs me greatly. Here is an excerpt from an article by Michelle Malkin that I found at ALIPAC. I am encouraging Sarah Palin and Senator Scott Brown to shy away from John McCain like he has the plague since on so many matters he does have it. That is my rant for the day.

Savor the irony: After a career spent bashing the right flank of the party, Sen. McCain is now clinging to its coattails to save his incumbent hide.

And pay attention to the hidden, more troubling irony: While he runs to the right to protect his seat, McCain’s political machine is working across the country to install liberal and establishment Republicans to secure his legacy.

In Florida, McCain’s Country First Political Action Committee is supporting the Senate bid of fellow illegal alien amnesty supporter and global warming alarmist, GOP Gov. Charlie Crist, whose crucial 2008 primary endorsement rescued McCain from disaster. Grass-roots conservatives support former GOP statehouse leader Marco Rubio – who is hitting Crist hard for lying to voters about his embrace of President Obama’s pork-laden, fraud-ridden stimulus package.

In Colorado, McCain and his meddlers infuriated the state party by anointing former lieutenant governor Jane Norton to challenge endangered Democrat Sen. Michael Bennet. She’s a milquetoast public official who has served on a lot of task forces and GOP clubs – and who happens to be the sister-in-law of big Beltway insider Charlie Black. An estimated 40 percent of her coffers are filled with out-of-state money (and much of that is flowing from the Beltway).

The mini-McCain of Colorado claims to oppose “special interests,” but has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars from D.C. lobbyists at McCain’s behest – stifling the candidacy of strong conservative rivals led by grass-roots-supported Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck, an amnesty opponent whose aggressive illegal immigration prosecutions have earned him the rage of the far Left and big business Right. A recent Rasmussen poll showed Buck and another GOP candidate Tom Wiens beating Bennet – despite the huge cash and crony advantage of front-runner and blank-slate Jane.

In California, McCain’s PAC supports former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina – a celebrity name with deep pockets of her own, massive media exposure, and a checkered business record. Fiorina served as the economic adviser to McCain, who supported the $700 billion TARP bailout, the $25 billion auto bailout, a $300 billion mortgage bailout, and the first $85 billion AIG bailout. As GOP rival and grass-roots-supported Chuck DeVore’s camp notes, Fiorina has also vacillated publicly over the Obama stimulus. With taxpayer “friends” like this, who needs Democrats?

With all due respect to McCain’s past noble war service, it’s time to head to the pasture. As the Supreme Court ruled on Thursday, he was wrong on the constitutionality of the free-speech-stifling McCain-Feingold campaign finance regulations. He was wrong to side with the junk-science global warming activists in pushing onerous carbon caps on America. He was on the wrong side of every Chicken Little-driven bailout. He was wrong in opposing enhanced CIA interrogation methods that have saved countless American lives and averted jihadi plots. And he was spectacularly wrong in teaming with the open-borders lobby to push a dangerous illegal alien amnesty.

Tea Party activists are rightly outraged by Sarah Palin’s decision to campaign for McCain, whose entrenched incumbency and progressive views are anathema to the movement. At least she has an excuse: She’s caught between a loyalty rock and a partisan hard place. The conservative base has no such obligations – and it is imperative that they get in the game (as they did in Massachusetts) before it’s too late. The movement to restore limited government in Washington has come too far, against all odds, to succumb to McCain Regression Syndrome now.

Time for the Republicans to wake up

10:33 am in Arlen Specter, Bi-partisan, Democrats, John McCain, Olympia Snowe by skyzot63

At long last a thorn in the side of Republicans has told the truth and switched parties. Now if we can force some of the others to do the same, I’m talkin’ about you John McCain and you Olympia Snowe. I could name a few others who would not be missed by me.

So the Republicans fall deeper in the minority status, so what? They have been rolling over and playing dead for years. Even when they held the House, Senate and the White House it seemed like the Democrats were in charge. The slightest opposition to anything they tried to do, would trigger a massive rollover in both houses, they looked like a bunch of puppies begging for a tummy rub.

They don’t know what “Bi-Partisan” means. To the Republicans it means shared ideas and responsibilities, to the Demoncrats it means, sit down, shut up and do it our way.

In that picture the Republicans lose every time, they need to wake up.

 

Time For A Good Rant

I am sick of the Political system we have in this country. We have Democrats and Republicans, the two major players in the political process. There is almost no difference in them these days. The Democrats have become so radically liberal as to become dangerous to the survival of this country. The party just needs to become the Liberal Party. That way they could go ahead and absorb the Communist Party,The Green Party, Atheist Party and any other fringe party since the platforms are so similar.  With that change we would all know what and who we are dealing with, after all those who call themselves “Moderate Democrats” only want to raise your tax rates by 40% instead of 90%. The overall view of the party has become the mantra of bi-partisanship, which in liberal speak for “Do it our way now sit down and shut up”

Now we get to the Republican Party, the Grand Old Party. It has become a gaggle of weak sister compromising weenies. They have thrown the Conservative values of Ronald Reagan out the window. They now want to “Cross The aisle”  and cooperate  and “Get Along”. That is why I think The Republican Party should become The Conservative Party. Sweep away all the RINOS, yepper I’m talkin’ about you Specter, Collins, Snowe and you John McCain. My patience with moderate Republican’s has grown very short. GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY!!!!

The Conservative Party needs to be built around people who have the values of people like Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal and the future great Jonathan Krohn at CPAC. When a fourteen year old can get it, why the fuck can’t adults get it? In my book, the only time a conservative should cross the aisle, is to Bitch Slap a liberal for being either stupid or a liberal, they both work for me.

My days on this earth are approaching a close much sooner than I would have wished. If in the next few years it takes pitch forks and torches to take back our government, I have my pitch fork at the ready and I can make a torch in about five minutes. In my book, it is time to clean house in Washington, Sacramento and just about any other state capitol you would care to name. There are a few good Governors around, but they are Conservative before they are Republicans.

I don’t have a bucket of shit’s worth of respect for any of the politicians in power, either side of the aisle. We have needed Term Limits for a very long time. One stipulation on the term limits, let’s include all the entrenched beaurocrats also. The Government has been run by these non-elected fat cats for far too long. Clear them out, for decades they have continued their same agendas no matter who is in the White House. If you don’t believe it take a look at the State Department, the DoD, or any other department in Washington, there are people there who have been there for thirty of more years. Some of them most likely don’t even remember what job they are doing.

One of the biggest mistakes made in this country was allowing government employees to Unionize. Firemen, Police Officers, Air Traffic Controllers and all other government employees should not be allowed to go on strike. They should be well compensated for the work they do and the dangers they face. In my book school teachers are not paid enough, I’m talking about the teachers in the classroom the ones teaching our future generations. Not the fat cat administrators who sit in their big offices and set te curriculum for the classroom. They are the ones that are destroying the future of this country. They are changing history, if it is taught at all. Classroom teachers are restricted to the curriculum, it is based on the advancement tests, “teach to the tests” they are told. Our children and grandchildren are being indoctrinated in the liberal manor by the curriculum, the teachers have no choice if they want to keep their jobs. Oh wait, I forgot the TEACHER’S UNION another good reason to keep government employees from unionizing.

I think I have ranted enough today.

When you put the clowns in charge, don’t be surprised when a circus breaks out. (Unknown but correct)
