Have fun!! I’ll check in after the election!

You might more productively spend your time reading the articles from some of the links I posted in the Global Warming updates, about how leading Climatologists, some of whom originally supported human-caused GW, have come out and not only said there is nothing to support it, but that it is a fraud.

Now why I am I dogging you on this GW thing? Because it’s all about credibility, and until you come clean on your zealous former position, you haven’t got ANY credibility. And when a posted has zero credibility, he can post as much as he wants but it doesn’t amount to a hill of beans. It can be dismissed summarily.

First, regarding religion, McCain looms as no lover of Christians. Recall his comments about key religious leaders in 2000, calling them “agents of intolerance.” And McCain’s vitriolic vilification of Christians was not limited to a single occurrence, for he later said, “I must not and will not retract anything that I said in that speech at Virginia Beach. It was carefully crafted, it was carefully thought out.” (Hardball, 3/1/00). More recently, however, McCain, positioning himself for 2008, has repackaged himself as pro-Christian, lauding key religious leaders and duping the devout. (Is this not as reptilian as Bill Clinton’s waffling?)

Second, on the issue of gay marriage, in 2005 McCain opposed a federal gay-marriage ban (Los Angeles Times, 1/25/ and 3/8). Now, however, likely realizing that most Americans think otherwise, McCain says he supports a gay-marriage ban (Meet the Press, 4/2/06). Which is it? Given his penchant for progressive politics, we can only assume the former.

Then, regarding abortion, McCain most certainly is pro-choice. In the San Francisco Chronicle (8/20/99) McCain sided with the pro-abortion camp, suggesting that overturning Roe v. Wade would lead to illegal abortions. Realizing, however, that he could not inveigle the GOP nomination with such views, McCain more recently has resold himself as pro-life, even saying he would support the South Dakota ban on abortions. What are Americans to believe? He either is pro-choice or lacks any real conviction on the subject.

Furthermore, regarding campaign-finance reform, the McCain-Feingold Campaign Reform Act is perhaps one of the more left-wing acts of Congress in the past twenty years. As recently exposed by Brian C. Anderson, “The Plot to Shush Rush and O’Reilly” in City Journal, McCain-Feingold (which passed with overwhelming Democrat support) is a convenient contrivance to silence conservatives. As noted by a whole host of commentators (George Will, Jonathan Rauch, and even Justice Clarence Thomas), this act poses blatant restrictions on political speech. It especially affects AM Radio and political internet blogs — the only two spheres of popular media where conservatives can truly compete. Critics remain divided why McCain supported a dictate so damaging to conservatives. Was it perhaps so that he could silence many on the Right whom he laconically loathes?

Last, but not least, McCain’s liberal tendencies show in the immigration debate. McCain has proven to be farther Left on the immigration issue than even many Liberals. At the very basis of most conservative thought is the idea of law and order, which are essential for the continuity of society. Bypassing tradition and sanity, and slapping in the face those who have come here legally, McCain has sought to sweep aside law and order to engage in the unbecoming business of pandering to ethnicities. (Isn’t this the dominion of Democrats?) McCain’s radical views on immigration threaten numerous components of the wellbeing of the United States and, more generally, Western Civilization: national security, standards of living, and cultural homogeneity, to name a few. McCain has courted the cheap-labor lobby for some fast cash for 2008 and now attempts to convert the U.S. into a third-world country.

McCain’s liberal laundry list goes on and on. Senator Lindsey Graham, another liberal in disguise, comments correctly that the present is a defining moment for the Republican Party, although his underlying analysis is wrong. The choice is between a party of McCain’s vision, a party indistinguishable from the Democratic Party, or a party that at least maintains a modicum of conservatism. If McCain loses, hopefully he will depart for the Democratic Party (where he belongs); but if he wins, expect to see a mass exodus of conservative voters from the GOP, probably over to a third party.

Great fun!!!!

I can’t wait for either McCain or Obama to get in. The first goal of the left in the current election was to make sure that someone like Huckabee didn’t make it past the primaries. We succeeded. It’s easy sailing from here.

I guess not, it seems you are still a fervent member of the Church of Global Warming, still faithful, still chanting the dogma despite the fact that the pews around you are now mostly empty.

You are the one who is utterly pathetic. And the sad part is that you’ll never even acknowledge when you are wrong, you just keep babbling away further solidifying your legacy as AKD the idiot, aka “Another Kool-Aid Drinker”.

The only question now is how long you’ll stay on the human-caused Global Warming bandwagon, even as the wheels are coming off and it has ground to a halt. Are you going down with the ship, like Al Gore surely will? Or will you just change your screename and emerge as another sort of babbling idiot, having jettisoned your GW anchor?

I love the Jon Stewart video that I linked to, On sites like this we hear again and again what a hyocrite democrat ‘x’ is, but no evidence is ever forthcoming. What do you make of the icons of the right flatly contradicting themselves?

BTW: I love the fact that the Bush regime is now so universally despised that the Republicon candidate for president — and admittedly, McCain is infinitely more liberal than Bush, as everyone from Coulter to Hannity to Limbaugh noted during the primaries — is trying to sell himself as the “change” candidate.

Incidentally, a lot of liberals I know would be happy to have McCain as pres. Hell, my friends and I actually registered republicon to vote for him in the primaries. I’d rather see Obama win, of course, but either way this country’s moving to the left (a little or a lot…).

Now that you’re back; perhaps you’d also like to comment on the recent Global Warming posts? Go into the archives and you’ll see several.

Since you’ve been away not only has the human-caused Global Warming hypothesis been throughly and totally debunked and discarded, but now there is growing evidence that in fact we are in a cooling cycle.

Just trying to help out, you see. Thought you might want to join the rational side…

I too think that Andrew Sullivan is a hypocrite…
