Since no third party candidate stands a chance of willing, and no write in does either, it simply comes down to this; do I vote for McCain and take a chance he won't totally FUBAR this country, or vote for Obama/Clinton who will without a shadow of a doubt FUBAR this county.
That's interesting. However, your quote needs a slight modification: "...do I vote for McCain who will without a shadow of a doubt FUBAR this county, or vote for Obama/Clinton who will without a shadow of a doubt FUBAR this county."
its people like you that will hand the white house to a
commi democrat, who will select the next supreme court
justice member....and they will destroy the 2nd
News for you: we don't have a 2nd Amendment because of some old parchment or because some old men in black dresses say we do. We have it because we will kill anyone who tries to take our guns. Enough of us will anyway; the rest, the "weekend patriots" will just have to depend on them to get the job done. It's irrelevant who's in the court on this question. The only relevance of the court is on
when the government is going to decide to try us. One could reasonably argue that the earlier, the better; because our resolve does not increase over time.
The jack booted feds will roll you (and me) up like an old carpet. If you think you can resist then you will join the ranks of the Branch Davidians and the martyrs of Ruby Ridge. All the good sheeple will fall in line or die.
If you think this is so, then what's the point of voting at all? What's the point of "rights" at the pleasure of our masters? Your rights are already gone. Your rifles are toys. You might as well hand them in now and save yourself the trouble. Be realistic, right?
Fortunately there are folks out here with stiffer backbones, so our rights are not gone yet.
We can put up with four years of one of the other socialists that don't call themselves conservative, and retain our party in a semblance of conservative leaning. Perhaps a chance of moving back to the right some...
Ah, but the question is, how does one move the party back to the right?
A true conservative can do two things. He can vote for McCain, which is a way of telling the party "I agree where you are going" or "I may disgree, but you can go ahead and ignore what I think." Or a true conservative can stay at home and let the party learn their lesson for peeing on conservatives. To me it's clear which action sends the right message to the party.
McCain is not going to win in any case. Not in a million years. I'm still amazed people have not learned the lesson of the 2006 election. Voters are done with wars started on lies, with civil liberties trampled. McCain just offers more of the same, except even more crudely than Bush if possible. Many conservatives and libertarians stayed home that election, disgusted with the Bush record on spending and other issues. McCain just offers more of that too.
Just as some here are holding their nose and attempting to put makeup on this pig, this RINO gun-grabbing scum McCain, some libertarians are also making their peace with a major candidate - but Obama, not McCain (on the theory he will stop the war). Get the point? There goes even more of the natural R constituency, actually voting D rather than staying at home. McCain doesn't have a chance.
Do something good for the Republican party. Send them a message, "NO MORE ROTTEN CANDIDATES!" Maybe they will take it to heart next election.
