John McCain debates himself (and loses) Are you against John McCain becoming our next president?

Libertarians are welcome. YouTube offerings, stories, photos, blogs, links are all welcome. John McCain can NOT become our next president.

McCain is a Pain
Last updated by Toluca on 08/03/2008 09:55 AM (Read: 597 times)
The media's moment of disillusionment with John McCain appears to be at hand. Even Joe Klein has finally noticed that McCain's profile is beginning to resemble the endomorphic shadow of his backstage advisor, Karl Rove, not one of the faces on Mt. Rushmore. It's all very predictable - about as predictable as the media's abrupt discovery in the summer of 2005, as New Orleans sank beneath the waves, that the president of the United States was, gasp!, an incompetent boob. But anyone who's studied McCain's career with any intellectual detachment at all (as opposed to the hagiographic tendencies of his media cheerleading claque) could have told you: The truth about John McCain is that he'll do just about anything and say just about anything to win. He always has. He's just been more clever (and cynical) than most in how he goes about it. Daily Kos: State of the Nation The Week That Should Have Ended McCain's Campaign

On Tuesday morning, he launched an advertisement reminding voters of his repeated clashes with President George W. Bush over climate change, which Mr McCain believes is real and requires urgent action. In the afternoon, he delivered a speech to the oil industry in Houston, calling for a lifting of the moratorium on offshore drilling in order to reduce petrol prices. Yep, McCain is Green and Mean.

The July 4th fireworks came a few weeks early at Dallas City Hall Tuesday when what started as an attempt at civic unity erupted into a divisive issue. The issue is a proposed name change for Industrial Boulevard, the gateway to the new Trinity River project. The City Council's schedule was for its Trinity River Corridor Project Committee to recommend and vote for one name to re-label Industrial Boulevard, but the process that was supposed to bring a city together instead left council members upset and divided.

Sen. John McCain on Friday abruptly cancelled a Monday fundraiser that had been scheduled at the home of a Texas oilman, after ABC News contacted the campaign inquiring about a verbal blunder the Texan made during an unsuccessful 1990 campaign for governor. Of course, he only canceled after he got busted ... typical. Here's an ad Ann Richards ran against the Texas governor hopeful. Nice people McCain hangs out with. Political Radar: McCain Cancels Event with Controversial Fundraiser Skeleton Closet - John McCain, The Dark Side

John McCain grew up Episcopalian. He went to an Episcopalian high school. For at least 15 years, he has been listed as an Episcopalian in authoritative directories such as the Almanac of American Politics and Congressional Quarterly's Politics in America 2008. He told a reporter from McClatchy News Service in June 2007 that he was an Episcopalian. Suddenly, in September 2007, he's campaigning in South Carolina, the heavily Baptist state where George W. Bush barely managed to stop McCain's presidential campaign 8 years ago. And guess what? McCain tells a reporter "By the way, I'm not Episcopalian. I'm Baptist." When pressed, he said he's attended the North Phoenix Baptist Church in Arizona for more than 15 years, though he has never been baptized in that church. Now see, that's exactly the problem. Baptism is kind of a big thing in the Baptist Church. (That's how they got the name.) No baptism, not Baptist. Anyway, details aside, this is one very clear indication of how McCain has changed. Now, he's just another hungry politician, happy to pander if it helps him win. Which eliminates the very reason people were excited about him in 2000 -- his honesty.

By CHARLIE SAVAGE WASHINGTON - A top adviser to Senator John McCain says Mr. McCain believes that President Bush's program of wiretapping without warrants was lawful, a position that appears to bring him into closer alignment with the sweeping theories of executive authority pushed by the Bush administration legal team. In a letter posted online by National Review this week, the adviser, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, said Mr. McCain believed that the Constitution gave Mr. Bush the power to authorize the National Security Agency to monitor Americans's international phone calls and e-mail without warrants, despite a 1978 federal statute that required court oversight of surveillance. Although a spokesman for Mr. McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, denied that the senators views on surveillance and executive power had shifted, legal specialists said the letter contrasted with statements Mr. McCain previously made about the limits of presidential power.

McCain is once again abandoning any pretense of consistency and integrity, and is now willing to say literally anything to win. Let's return, once again, to McCain's flourishing flip-flop list, which is now a Top 11 list. * McCain criticized TV preacher Jerry Falwell as "an agent of intolerance"n 2002, but has since decided to cozy up to the man who said Americans "deserved" the 9/11 attacks. (Indeed, McCain has now hired Falwell's debate coach.) * McCain used to oppose Bush's tax cuts for the very wealthy, but he reversed course in February. * In 2000, McCain accused Texas businessmen Sam and Charles Wyly of being corrupt, spending "dirty money" to help finance Bush's presidential campaign. McCain not only filed a complaint against the Wylys for allegedly violating campaign finance law, he also lashed out at them publicly. In April, McCain reached out to the Wylys for support. * McCain supported a major campaign-finance reform measure that bore his name. In June, he abandoned his own legislation. * McCain used to think that Grover Norquist was a crook and a corrupt shill for dictators. Then McCain got serious about running for president and began to reconcile with Norquist. * McCain took a firm line in opposition to torture, and then caved to White House demands. * McCain gave up on his signature policy issue, campaign-finance reform, and won't back the same provision he sponsored just a couple of years ago. * McCain was against presidential candidates campaigning at Bob Jones University before he was for it. * McCain was anti-ethanol. Now he's pro-ethanol. * McCain was both for and against state promotion of the Confederate flag. * And now he's both for and against overturning Roe v. Wade. It's not exactly a newsflash that McCain is veering ridiculously to the right in a rather shameless attempt to reinvent himself, but Dems should take advantage of the situation and help establish the narrative now. Despite his rather embarrassing record of late, we still have major media figures telling the public that "no one would accuse McCain of equivocating on anything." Now is the time to begin characterizing McCain "accurately" as a man with no principle beliefs. Dems should not only criticize McCain's constantly evolving opinions on nearly everything, they should openly mock him for it now, so that the storyline becomes second nature (like the GOP did with "serial exaggerator" Al Gore). The nation is seeing McCain 2.0, and we like the old one better. McCain's flourishing flip-flop list - The Carpetbagger Report Barack Obama vs. John Bush McCain Victory Speech

He said he wants someone who is ready take over on day two." --Bill Maher "Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain have all been arguing, claiming that they're the most qualified person to answer the White House phone at 3 a.m. Yeah, McCain said, 'I'm the most qualified, because I'm usually up at that hour peeing anyway.'" --Conan O'Brien "John McCain is now crisscrossing the United States campaigning.

Senator John McCain has aggressively tried to distance himself from Bush in an effort to avoid being tagged by Democrats as running for Bush's third term. However, as Think Progress notes, McCain's chief surrogate, Senator Lindsey Graham, did not adhere to that message during his appearance on ABC's This Week, with George Stephanopoulos. Stephanopoulos asked Sen. Graham if McCain's tax and healthcare policies are essentially "an extension or maybe an enhancement of the Bush policies." Sen. Graham answered, "Yeah, absolutely."
