Comments on: Video: McCain says reform or riots Updated

Wed, 06 Jun 2007 17:45:49 +0000

[...] As for her point about applause for McCain last night signifying some sort of ambivalence among Republicans about amnesty, she must be joking. Here’s the Times transcript; Tancredo got applause when he called for ending legal immigration. Ron Paul got applause for saying we should pull out of Iraq ASAP. They all got applause — that’s what happens when you have supporters in the audience. She’s trying to equate the Republican outrage towards McCain now to what it was (or wasn’t) toward the universe of GOP incumbents last November, but that analogy doesn’t wash for the simple reason that McCain is the face of amnesty in the Senate. It’s one thing to go to the polls and hold an open-borders vote against some no-name congressman from your district whom you’ve never heard of, but McCain is a national figure who’s consistently championed this position to the mounting anger of conservatives he’s betrayed on too many issues. And now he’s doing it again — in the middle of a presidential run, with snide accusations of bad faith among his opponents, practically daring us to punish him for it. Well, here’s a newsflash: he’s finished as a serious candidate and it’s for precisely this issue. I can’t believe she doesn’t understand that. [...]

[...] Intentionally? McCain is also warning of riots if these reforms are not adopted. Sound like anybody you know? [...]

georgej and PRCalDude…funny I understood exactly what you were saying. Sheesh, go figure a troll would spin it.

Surprise!

Ah codewords… need the secret decoder to know what they really mean…
The thread is about riots – comments were relevant.

Not (nearly) the first time you’ve misunderstood/misrepresented/misquoted another commenter in a ridiculous attempt to be clever and critical.

Why don’t you try just commenting on the thread subject instead of doing the lefty troll shuffle.

Not the first time and certainly doubt it is the last that you have expressed violent desires as the solution to things you disagree with.

PRCalDude on June 5, 2007 at 2:08 PM

Like I said – gleefully anticipating riots and hoping you can “participate”.

"GeorgeJ go running toward the riots with your guns in hand LA’s finest may not realize you are there to “help”." Bradky on June 5, 2007 at 1:11 PM Before you shoot your mouth off some more, read Guns Up! by Johnnie Clark Or at least read my comment in the other thread about McCains predicting riots, where I explain the use of the term, and who would be using it.

What you see is a bitter old man. McCain served his country, and for that I’ll extremely grateful, but I seriously doubt he will never be president. When that realization finally sets in, he will no doubt direct that bitterness much like Algore – into lunacy.

Your vote has been counted. Lets see – I now have 2 zeros and 1 minus.
If he doesn’t have the three of us he might as well hang it up.

Read your post again – the gleeful call for riots and arming yourself prior to them pretty much says it all.

So I never said it. Thanks.

I am proud to say that I will actively campaign against him when he attempts to get re-elected to the Senate because his presidential bid is already history. He’s the only one who doesn’t know it yet.
I’d also like to hear his comments on the torture and mutilation of the soldiers that were captured in Iraq. He was big on making sure that we treat captured terrorists according to the Geneva Convention to insure that they treat our prisoners the same way.
How’s that policy looking now, John?

Bradky,

Who’s doing the spinning? Can you tell me when I said I was going to ‘run towards the riots’? When did I say it??????

In case you haven’t noticed Senator, the good folks in France that are burning those cars are French CITIZENS, not illegal aliens. For elected officials to be this uninformed, and this smug and condescending in displaying their ignorance, is staggering.

Once again with words I never said. When did I say I was going ‘run toward the riots with my guns?’ I’ll tell you what, you do that, and I’ll be right behind you. Heheh.

Having just watched “Children of Men” this weekend, and have Hollywood give up some great ideas for handling illegals, I say, Bring it! Let them riot, it just makes easier to deport.

Even Worse: Amnesty Bill Allows Illegal Aliens To Work By Specifically *Forbidding* Employers From Checking Status Before Hiring…

That’s right, yo. The “tough, strong” enforcement provisions of the amnesty bill forbid an employer to even check if a job applicant is illegal (whoops, there goes any effectiveness of that tough, strong new employee ID card). Instead, an employer…..

McCain’s “like it or lump it” elitist attitude is appalling.
There are huge differences between our immigration problems and Frances, for that matter Europe. Consider McCain unelectable for the top job, he lacks all sense in common.
