Comment on: The Civilized Conservative

Is McCain Mr. National Security?

1 Comment

McCain

Great article! I agree,that the media has one objective,and that is to get Mr."McAMNESY", into the White House.There is indeed much to admire about Senator McCain,ranging from his courage as a POW to his extraordinary leadership in pushing for the "surge" in Iraq.But this has not been the case with his disingenuous blustering on illegal immigration-particularly when his cosponsorship of mass-amnesty legislation with Senator Kennedy is raised.The Arizona Republican now says that,in the wake of last summer's defeat of "comprehensive immigration reform,"he has "gotten the message" that the border must be secured before the status of illegals already in the United States can be dealt with. That,s fair enough. But it doesn't give Mr.McAmnesty the right to shut people up when they ask legitimate questions about his immigration record-which includes cosponsoring legislation to permit illegal aliens to pay lower in-state tuition rates denied to some students that are in our country legally,supporting Social Security benefits for illegals and voting against an amendment last year that would have permanently barred gang members,terrorists and other criminals from the United States.As far as McCain,s comment about Romney and the Iraq war,you must remember this man is desperate and is making all sorts of false accusations knowing that the liberal media is on his side,and this will get airtime.
