		<description>I have a question for Conservatives who claim that there is something honorable about not voting for McCain. Who spend more of their time beating down a fellow Republican, while ignoring the extreme liberal forces that are about to kick their butts completely out of every branch of government.  

McCain may be the most liberal conservative - but that is light years away from what a pure liberal dem would bring our society with little opposition to worry about.  Obama is ranked among the most radically liberal in his public policy record.  

This is not just about who will be President for 4 years.  It’s about preventing a complete washout of all conservative influence..  How is having only 50% of McCain’s ear worse than having zip out of a liberal dictatorship who thinks all conservative thought is archaic?

What is honorable about sitting on your butt at home, refusing to vote – allowing all branches of government to be swarmed by RABIDLY liberal opponents who have vowed to undo everything conservatives have fought to achieve over the past decade?

I hear endless whining and griping from Conservatives – while the extreme liberals, who are bent on reversing every conservative principal – out number us at the polls nearly two to one.  Is that principal or do conservatives just have a death wish to see our country turn to the extreme left (who has no problem getting their hind ends to the polls)..

What is so conservative about beating down the (soon to be) nominee who supports our troops, instead of the extreme liberals who insult our troops and degrade them every single day in front of the entire world?

By punishing John McCain for not being conservative enough – you are really punishing all conservatives by making absolutely sure they will be governed by radical, rabid liberalism for the next 4 to 8 years.

By stomping your feet and refusing to help, you in turn assure that the laws of the land will have few conservatives in a position of power to stop a runaway liberal train that will further infiltrate our school, explode your tax burden and socialize every part of your life it can.

If you must be dragged to the polls, then don’t bother complaining when our courts are swarmed by the liberals who will put judges in power.  

Please think twice before punishing the rest of us conservatives, who may not love McCain, but are smart enough to realize the living nightmare that will ensue, if things continue on the path they are going.  

I see nothing conservative about being so focused on the anthill, you completely ignore the volcano that’s about to wipe your entire cause out.  That is not principal.  That’s political suicide.  Will conservatives ever learn?.

		<description>This information was taken from the Race 4 2008 website. We all know that McCain talks the talk but does not walk the walk when it comes to his conservative policies. Read below.

&quot;I’m getting more and more insight into John McCain everyday. The following comment helped me quite a bit to become clearer on what a McCain presidency would be like:
Let us look at McCain’s conservative credentials:
-IMMIGRATION: he wrote the bill granting amnesty to illegal immigrants (co-sponsored by Ted Kennedy)
-SOCIAL SECURITY: he voted to give your social security money to illegal immigrants
-TAXES: he voted against the Bush tax cuts multiple times (he has since flip-flopped and has campaigned as a lifelong tax-cutter)
-RHETORIC: he routinely engages in Democratic class warfare against big companies in America, particularly the “evil” drug companies who research cures to debilitating diseases for a profit
-ECONOMY: as recently as December 2007 he admitted “he does not know the economy very well” and needed to get better at it
-1ST AMENDMENT: he wrote the McCain-Feingold campaign finance bill that was declared to be an unconstitutional infringement of the 1st Amendment (co-sponsored by ultra-liberal Democrat Russ Feingold)
-2ND AMENDMENT: he was called the “worst 2nd amendment candidate” by the president of the NRA
-ENERGY TAX: wrote a bill (co-sponsored by his buddy Lieberman) imposing a massive tax on energy which, according to the Department of Energy, would drastically raise the price of gasoline and put 300,000 Americans out of work
-GLOBAL WARMING: supports radical global warming legislation which involved him voting with every Democrat; think only America is responsible to take action, not other superpowers
-JUDGES: he joined forces with Democrats (Gang of 14) to block the Senate Republican’s attempt to confirm conservative, strict constructionist judges
-WAR ON TERROR: fought with Hillary Clinton to demand that terrorists be given a full American trial
-GAY MARRIAGE: he joined liberals to fight against a federal marriage amendment supporting the institution of traditional marriage
-CHRISTIANS: campaigning in 2000, he famously described Christian leaders as “agents of intolerance”
-PRO-LIFE: he filed an amicus brief against pro-life advocates in Wisconsin
-BI-PARTISANSHIP: he met with leading Democrats in 2004 to discuss the possibility of being John Kerry’s Vice-President
-PROFESSIONAL ETHICS: ringleader of the infamous Keating 5 ethical scandal which cost US tax payers $160 billion (Google it)
-PERSONAL ETHICS: McCain cheated on his first wife after she had a severe accident that left her partially disabled. He then divorced her and married his multi-millionaire mistress, whose daddy bought McCain a spot in the Congress&quot;</description>

		<description>Thank you for your thoughts....as I have had....about Huckabee&#039;s intent to stay in the race.....NOT TO PROMOTE CONSERVATIVE PRINCIPLES.....but to promote his own political goals.   The way to do that is to help McCain defeat the real, all-around conservative in the race, Mitt Romney.  I have often marvelled, also, at Huckabee&#039;s (as well as McCain&#039;s) disdain, jealousy, etc. towards Romney&#039;s $$.   He earned that money through an excellent education, ingenuity and hard work.  I&#039;ve been baffled.....&quot;ISN&#039;T THAT WHAT THE AMERICAN DREAM IS???&quot;   And these other two men want to THE President to ensure that America is strong enough to do that???    

Whatever can be done to get the word out to conservative evangelicals....that Huckabee&#039;s intentions are NOT HONORABLE if his intents are to stay in the race just to take away votes from Romney, please LET&#039;S DO!!      Otherwise, we will have a man PROVEN to be FAR LESS CONSERVATIVE than he is PANDERING to the Republican party!!</description>
