Why you need to meet the real John McCain
(A message from Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt, Sr. Policy Advisor, U.S. Dept.
of Education during the Reagan Administration)
As a delegate to our state convention this coming weekend we have a
solemn obligation to know the truth about the man who has been anointed
the "presumptive nominee" of our party. Our job is not to be a
rubber stamp for anyone else's agenda, no matter how "nobly"
the cause is presented. The Republican establishment in Maine is counting
on us not having the documented information on this sheet. It is counting
on our willingness to be told what to think in the same way that the
mainstream media has been telling us what to think throughout this entire
election cycle. We are expected to suspend any other concerns we may have
in the name of "party unity".
The truth is that a patriot who loves his country also makes it an
ultimate priority to be well-educated about the decisions he or she must
make. Unless we have come to understand how dominated by the leftist
military-industrial complex America's major media has become, and done
some research, we are not prepared to do our duty at the
convention.
This letter, supported by many delegates to the Republican Convention, is
literally about saving the party and the nation from a maniacal
neoconservative war monger, who supports a United States presence in Iraq
for 100 years, and who is not really even a Republican.
"War hero" image is a media creation not supported by the
facts.
McCain graduated 894th of the 899 cadets in his class at the Naval
Academy. Google It. Why would we want someone who was a failure and took
his responsibilities so flippantly as our commander-in-chief?
McCain was an irresponsible pilot who crashed 6 planes, and started a
major fire on an aircraft carrier through negligent action. Why would we
want someone this reckless in the most-important office on the
planet?
McCain collaborated with the enemy, was given "soft" treatment
because his father was an admiral, and is known as "Songbird
McCain" by those who were imprisoned with him. He is the MIA/POW
family's worst enemy for his constant attempts to belittle their concerns
and stifle their inquiries while serving in the Senate.
McCain ditched his ill wife to marry an heiress when he returned from
Vietnam.
Is this the type of morality we Republicans condone? Is this type of
heinous lack of loyalty we want in a President?
He also has a track record of shocking verbal abuse including screaming
profanities against his Senate Republican colleagues. Senator Thad
Cochran, MS, says "The thought of his being President sends a cold
chill down my spine." Other Senators relate times when McCain
screamed four-letter obscenities right in their faces in the Senate cloak
room, like Dick Shelby, Rick Santorum or Jim Imhofe. "The man is
unhinged," one senator said. "He is frighteneningly unfit to be
commander-in-chief."
The truth is, John McCain is not even a Republican. He is a phony
stalking horse who is a liberal in disguise. He not only can't win this
fall because he is so out of step with the majority of Americans and with
the principled stands of Republicanism, but if we support this person for
our nominee, he will likely destroy our party. Consider:
- He was intimately involved in the "Keating 5" Savings &
Loan scandal
- He has been endorsed by the liberal/leftist New York Times
- He is a big advocate of the extreme "green" global warming
scare, and the economically horrific "solutions" being proposed
by people like Al Gore.
- He has promoted illegal amnesty for millions of illegal aliens
- His McCain-Feingold bill has destroyed much of the rights of people
to take part in the political process the way they see fit. This bill
remains un-Constitutional and a major affront to the First Amendment
protections on the right of free speech.
- He is a big-time gun grabber who is an extreme advocate of
restrictions on 2nd Amendment rights.
- He opposes repeal of Roe v. Wade, and opposes a Constitutional
amendment to protect all life.
- He is no fiscal conservative, and he supports raising taxes on Social
Security benefits.
- He continues his aggressive support for the Iraq War, which costs the
U.S. taxpayer $12 billion a month, even though only 34% of Americans
support the war. 4,538 Americans have died in the war. 29,780 have been
wounded. 300,000 soldiers are suffering from major depression, and
320,000 received brain injuries, all as a result of this unconstitutional
and immoral war.
We will hear much about "unity" at the Maine State Convention.
However, it is very important that we understand that to unify behind
this man is tantamount to nominating a Democrat. We can vote our
consciences or abstain from voting.
John McCain did poorly in our Maine caucuses. By most estimates he got
fewer than 20% of the delegates to the State Convention coming out of our
caucuses and was soundly trounced by both Romney and Texas Congressman
Ron Paul. McCain did not win a single county in the straw poll, with 15
counties going to Romney and one going to Dr. Paul. McCain has little
support nationally ... there are never huge rallies for McCain, unless
people are paid to show up. In short, he is a media creation and the
darling of the Trotskyite neoconservative warmongers who have hijacked
our party. He does not support our own platform!
Former Romney supporters who receive this info sheet DO NOT have to
follow the "uncalled for" advice of the Massachusetts governor
that you go over the cliff with support for this unstable man.
DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF OR YOUR VOTE TO BE PROSTITUTED IN THE NAME OF PARTY
UNITY. PUT YOUR COUNTRY FIRST!
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter and for being such an
important part of our representative form of government - the envy of the
world!
