ParticipantYes Gandolf/Shadowfax, but why lie to do it?
McCain isn’t my favorite Republican. I can find plenty wrong with him. One of those things is his declaration that waterboarding IS torture. So there’s lie # one.
“No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President.” If both parents are citizens in good standing of the United States, their offspring are natural born citizens of the US, even if born on the moon. This is actually BO’s problem. His daddy was a Kenyan with a British passport, and his mother was a minor so could not transfer citizenship. Even if he was born in Hawaii, over which there is some doubt, he does not have a claim to be a “natural born citizen”. He may be British. He may be Kenyan, but he is not a natural born US citizen. Lie # two.
He receives a military pension, for his years of service as a military officer. A portion of that income is disability for his injuries received in the service of his country. This has nothing to do with what his future earnings may be, or what his wife may earn. Lie # three.
“He served as a state politician in Arizona.” McCain never held office at the state level in AZ. Lie # four.
One could go on, but why bother with someone prepared to lie at every turn?

Participant[quote=Shadowfax]Costco: Do you ever have anything relevant to say? [/quote]
Yes your oh-so-witty misapplication of my sobriquet is right up there with Gandolf following Susan Eisenhower. Brilliant!
BTW, you’re an obvious sock of Gandolf’s. For those of you ignorant of the ways of blogdom, a sock is when a singular user uses multiple user names to support his main user name. I’ll bet you thought “Shadowfax” was witty too.

ParticipantPerhaps I misjudged your motives when I responded previously. However, whenever someone blithers about “this awful war” or some such, the nitwit alarm goes off.
“I am a registered voter, and have voted in every election since I have been old enough.”
P. Diddy would be proud of you.
“I pay my taxes. Quite a lot in taxes.”
Is there another option?
“If I had a place to hang the flag on holdiays, like my parents did when I was growing up, I would.”
Good for you. Here’s hoping you have a house one day.
“I haven’t broken any laws or ever been in jail so you could call me a law abiding citizen. Is that patriotic?”
No
“I’ve never attended a “peace rally” or gone to jail for civil disobedience.”
A dubious distinction.
“I don’t like the Dixie Chicks”
Who does?
“Would I be more patriotic if I got a lapel pin, or put a “support our troops” sticker on my car ( a 20 year old Volvo; maybe a Ford would be more patriotic)?”
No, that wouldn’t make you more patriotic, but if you were more patriotic, you might do so.
It’s like this Toots, patriotism is a love of country like the love you have for your family. Some people pay the price for your freedom, a rather small minority these days. They know what patriotism is because they live it everyday. McCain knows. Obama is a free rider, like almost every democrat or liberal you’ll ever meet. If you’d like to become a patriot, start by educating yourself on the history of how this nation was created. It wasn’t to help the deprived. In closing, I’ll leave you with this. Liberals are communists without the guns.
