I know some of you will find this to be  a list of virtues but you might want to think about  it.

10 things you should know about John McCain (but probably don't):

1. John McCain voted against establishing a national holiday in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Now he says his position has "evolved," yet he's continued to oppose key civil rights laws.
1
2. According to Bloomberg News, McCain is more hawkish than Bush on Iraq, Russia and China. Conservative columnist Pat Buchanan says McCain "will make Cheney look like Gandhi.
"2
3. His reputation is built on his opposition to torture, but McCain voted against a bill to ban waterboarding, and then applauded President Bush for vetoing that ban.
3
4. McCain opposes a woman's right to choose. He said, "I do not support Roe versus Wade. It should be overturned.
"4 this is NOT what he said in 2000
5. The Children's Defense Fund rated McCain as the worst senator in Congress for children. He voted against the children's health care bill last year, then defended Bush's veto of the bill.
5
6. He's one of the richest people in a Senate filled with millionaires. The Associated Press reports he and his wife own at least eight homes! Yet McCain says the solution to the housing crisis is for people facing foreclosure to get a "second job" and skip their vacations.
6
7. Many of McCain's fellow Republican senators say he's too reckless to be commander in chief. One Republican senator said: "The thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine. He's erratic. He's hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me.
"7
8. McCain talks a lot about taking on special interests, but his campaign manager and top advisers are actually lobbyists. The government watchdog group Public Citizen says McCain has 59 lobbyists raising money for his campaign, more than any of the other presidential candidates.
8
9. McCain has sought closer ties to the extreme religious right in recent years. The pastor McCain calls his "spiritual guide," Rod Parsley, believes America's founding mission is to destroy Islam, which he calls a "false religion." McCain sought the political support of right-wing preacher John Hagee, who believes Hurricane Katrina was God's punishment for gay rights and called the Catholic Church "the Antichrist" and a "false cult.
"9
10. He positions himself as pro-environment, but he scored a 0—yes, zero—from the League of Conservation Voters last year.

ALOT of people, both men and WOMEN are pro life and oppose Roe VS Wade.....
I find it really funny that so many are jealous of McCain having 7 houses! I say Good for him. Most of his money is due to his wife's inheritance, but again.....So What???
You should not covet the possessions of others but be happy for them that they are doing well. And as for the foreclosures, I agree....get a second job, take responsibility, it isn't my responsibility to take money from my paycheck to pay off YOUR mortgage.

1. Wrong
2. Good, I hope he unleashes massive attacks on terrorists wherever they are and doesn't give in to the political pressure from the left to run a "compassionate" war.
3. Use whatever is necessary to save the lives of my family from terror attacks!
4. Bad law is bad law, and women are not God.
5. He voted against the ridiculous increase of the minimum income level of those applying for the program. A person making $60k a year should be able to afford healthcare if they can budget.
6. There you go with the class envy again. And how many of the Hollywood elite, or John Edwards or Al Gore are going to give up all their homes and luxurious lifestyles?
7. Good, maybe he'll kick some butts in Washington and frighten terrorists. I suppose Hillary was known for her calm demeaner.
8. Another liberal source finding fault with McCain's campaign. Shocker!
9. Wrong again, in fact he denounced John Hagee's endorsement and said he didn't want it.
10. Actually, his stance on global warming bugs the heck out of me. I hope he scored a 0 from that group, but I fear he's going to enact very costly programs that are fed by the global warming hysteria.

Thanks for putting my mind at ease that my vote for McCain will be the right one. I appreciate it!

I too, find the rebuttal much more to My liking , we have enough problems in this country, with out Islamists coming here trying to blow up everything ! and the only way to prevent it, is to attack it all over the world !!

Momcat is a staunch liberal, hell bent against morality, fighting evil and building America up.

Therefore, she supports Islamofascists, murder (although she calls it abortion), Christianity and placing the welfare of non-spirual life-forms over that of human beings.

and along with that, I think as long as there is islamic radicals wanting to blow us up, there should be a moratoreum on islamic immigration to this country and also find out who is funding building the Mosques in this country .

I agree, Dak. The few screw it up for the rest of us and that axiom should hold true for outsiders as well.

aye, finally we agree on something, *smiles* let it screw it up for those of the same religion for a change, they may not be radicals, but if confronted would I'm sure support them .

I have spent a lot of time studying the roots and the history of Islam. It is a major, evil religion fronted by a demon.

It's goals are a central caliphate with total control of the world.

To that end, they now wage that war on no less than 35 fronts.

But American's are the warmongerers.

Yeah, right.

I personally believe their migration here is to colonize , and then start pushing for sharia law in this country, that is how they do it .

this country only goes to war for the prospect of peace , with no other gain in mind other than peace !

One need only look at their history to confirm that, Dak. Too, look to Britain and Austrailia to see it happening now.
