Obama angers McCain…finally

| March 28, 2009

Almost a year ago, John McCain told America that Barack Obama would make a good President. Well, that kind of good will got McCain nothing in the election. So now that the election is over with and it won’t do him a lick of good, McCain gets his hackles up in this Washington Times article;

Sen. John McCain says President Obama is breaking campaign promises he made to the American people and has passed up numerous opportunities to reach out to Republicans — a pledge the Democrat made repeatedly during their battle for the presidency.

“There are things that, statements that then-candidate Obama made during the campaign over and over and over again that obviously he’s not staying with,” Mr. McCain told The Washington Times in an hour-long interview with reporters and editors.

Of course, McCain did mention a few times that Obama couldn’t be trusted, but McCain bowed to pressure from the Obama campaign to tone down that kind of rhetoric. Now that it’s too late, McCain will feign outrage and surprise during our long ride to hell in a handbasket.

Is McCain really surprised that the individual voted the most liberal senator does not practice bipartisanship?

Bipartisanship to Dhimmicrats=You agree with us. Period. Wasn’t he listening? Oh, that’s right. He’s so statesmanly. That’s probably why the Dhimmicrats crossed over to vote for him during the first few primaries, because it sure as heck wasn’t us…but I’ll leave that alone.

Hi Jonn. How are you? I’m well. Have a great weekend.

I voted for McCain in the primaries. First of all, my nephew is in the Army and I thought McCain had the most experience and I admired him for his bravery and sacrifice for our country. (Hey, I still admire that about him.) Secondly, I thought a candidate like Huckabee would be too conservative – except I wasn’t sure he was fiscally conservative.

In other words, I fell for the same thing many conservatives fell for. I regret it. I even convinced my husband to vote for him. Then, he goes and tries to come out like Mr. Nice Guy during the election – like you said, bowing to the Obama campaign like Hillary did.

I wouldn’t have been angry at him for losing if I didn’t fell that he threw the election by catering to cared so much about him losing if he had grown a backbone and told the world what an awful President Obama would make. He could have been sitting pretty high on America’s hero list right now if he had done that.

McCain is a stupid old prick who sold us all down the river with his utter lack of backbone. I just watched him waffle his way through the question of whether he’d support Sarah Palin for President, without ever answering. Of course he wouldn’t, Palin’s clearly got a bigger pair than him and it would make him look bad if she won. I respect John McCain’s service to my country as a soldier, but I utterly abhor his disservice to my country as a candidate. Fuck John McCain.
