McCain plays the Freepers like a fiddle.

McCain head fakes he's picking a pro-choice running mate, so Freepers will be thrilled when he picks someone pro-life.

And Freepers fall for it. Like a ton of bricks.


Arthur McGowan yells he's the biggest ideologically purist on the blog:

[I]n my book, very few politicians are really pro-life. I can’t think of any “pro-life” politician—other than maybe Henry Hyde or Rick Santorum—who has never
uttered the words, “There are good people on both sides of this issue.”

Can you imagine any American ever saying, about Auschwitz or Dachau, “There are good people on both sides of this issue.”

Yeah, Americans totally hated Von Braun and Heisenberg!

Hildy provides a counterpoint:

Well, Bully for you..if you can sleep at night knowing that our men and women in uniform have to salute a President Barak Hussein Obama partly because of your PROTEST vote, then by all means go for it.

Oh noes! The troops saluting Obama, a card-carrying DEMOCRAT! Get the fainting couch! This paternalistic shit offends me a lot more than I would think.

coconutt2000 knows this is just a plot:

[the MSM] tried and failed to paint him as a dangerous, deluded, maniacal
war monger, so they’re going to pull out the 2006 playbook and promote division
and infighting among conservatives.

This is just what the em-ess-em wants you to think! So don't think, that'll teach 'em!

Sunnyflorida has a dream not many Freepers share...

“He should just get it over with and pick Hillary.”

Too funny. She announces at the Dem Convention she is McCain’s running mate. What a slap down to BO and the dems that dissed her.

His irrational hatred of Obama has blinded him to his irrational hatred of Hillary. Whoa.

And this is a bit off topic, but EternalVigilance found abortion in the Constitution:

The Constitution tells us what its purposes are. The culminating clause is
"to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves AND OUR POSTERITY."

...[The President] has sworn to protect the unborn, just as have the members of the
other two co-equal branches of government.

Posterity totally counts aborted babies. That's not circular logic at all!
