I just wish we had 99 more like him.” 7:24:25 PM 3/10/04 “He's Hell On Wheels, isn't he?” 7:54:25 PM 3/10/04 “I would Vote for him over either.” 7:57:28 PM 3/10/04 “No #&%!$.” 7:57:41 PM 3/10/04 “I voted for Mc” 8:01:29 PM 3/10/04 “One of Senator McCains fellow prisoners at the Hanoi Hilton, now retired General Borling, is running for U.S. Senate here in Illinois. Of the eight or so candidates in the Republican primary, General Borlingis the only one telling the truth about himself and his stands on the issues. Another great American.” 8:05:13 PM 3/10/04 Kerry/McCain “The news tonight rumored a Kerry-McCain ticket. Hmmmm!? Bush slandered McCain badly in 2000. Imagine that....2 real Vietnam vets running against the 2 Chicken Hawks.” 9:06:40 PM 3/10/04 “That would be a great ticket! McCain appeals to so many different types.” 9:09:21 PM 3/10/04 “There is no way McCain runs with Botox Johnny. He'll be busting Hillary's chops come 2008 :)” 9:29:47 PM 3/10/04 “Kerry / McCain? I love it!” 11:06:05 PM 3/10/04 “I voted for mcCain. Wish I coulda voted for him twice.” 11:14:41 PM 3/10/04 “"He's Hell On Wheels, isn't he?" Tilt 07:54:25 PM No Tilt, he was an airplane driver.” 8:46:52 AM 3/11/04 “It won't happen, but it's fun to think about.” 8:50:45 AM 3/11/04 “McCain should, in all honesty, switch to the other side of the isle.” 8:51:20 AM 3/11/04 “I'd vote for him and then go activist against him on Abortion. There are too many other things I agree with him about to let that one decide.” 8:53:13 AM 3/11/04 “His stand on abortion doesn't scare me too much. I don't see Roe v. Wade getting overturned through another decision. It is a masterpiece of an opinion and was cleverly drafted. My favorite quote (paraphrased). If Doctors and Theologins cannot agree on this issue, how can we as the Court render our opinion? This is a decision for people to decide on their own.” 9:31:45 AM 3/11/04 “Self-determination? What a concept! Tom -- I thought that was the english translation of flugzeugführer. FG would banish McCain to the other side of the island? Harsh, Dude!” 9:43:18 AM 3/11/04 “I would have voted for McCain in 2000. I wasn't crazy about Gore but just flat could not stomach Bush. Amazing how the Republicans can always get the wrong guy. I would have voted Republican in 96 if it had been Kemp/Dole instead of the other way around. I don't think we'll see a Kerry/McCain ticket unfortunately. More then likely we'll see the Senator from Florida to try to deliver that state, Edwards to bring in the South and the disenfranchised or else they'll do something real stupid and get Feinstein out of California to pull the womans votes which I think will hurt more because she will be identified as another liberal and the fact that she is jewish will lose a lot of votes from the bigots.” 12:47:29 PM 3/11/04 “I've got plenty of reasons to dislike Feinstein, Jewish or not. Does that make me a bigot. Oh, I forgot, I'm a Rebublican, so of course I'm a bigot.” 1:08:10 PM 3/11/04 “Did he call you, or even imply that you are a bigot?” 1:09:08 PM 3/11/04 “Bigots are people too.” 1:12:01 PM 3/11/04 “Seems like he implied that anyone who wouldn't vote for Sen. Feinstein would not do so because they are a bigot. Never the less I've seen so much vile hatered for all things Republican or Conservative on this list lately that I just had to pop off. If I offended you I certainly apologize and I'll go back under my bridge now.” 1:17:21 PM 3/11/04 “"I've got plenty of reasons to dislike Feinstein, Jewish or not. Does that make me a bigot. Oh, I forgot, I'm a Rebublican, so of course I'm a bigot." Naw ya can't be a republican because: 1. A Republican is never a bigot, only "righteous" In all seriousness,m if you don't think that a lot of people would not vote for any ticket with a Jew or an African American on it becasue of bigotry then your head is in the sand. And that being the case to have to remark that because you do not like Feinstein that YOU are a bigot is rather childish. I also said because she is liberal and that is what I suspect you may not like. The other thing you probably don't like is that she is a Democrat. See there was an either/or in my statement but your reaction does typify conservative republicanism.” 1:22:00 PM 3/11/04 “You people are funny. Do you READ the stuff you post? No way in he11 could you stand to vote for a Repub in 2008. You expouse too much hate toward any Repub. I like McCain and supported him when he was running against Bush. I think he will make a great run in 2008 against Clinton.” 1:22:20 PM 3/11/04 Die Hard “Didn't Bruce Willis play John McCain in those movies. Sorry, I don't follow U.S politics that closely. Just know Bush and some Kerry guy. :o)” 8:01:26 PM 3/11/04 Steve “Dunno who you're talking to steve. Hopefully not me. I voted for Eisenhower, Goldwater, Ford, and the first Bush.” 8:03:43 PM 3/11/04 NoProb “You said: "Seems like he implied that anyone who wouldn't vote for Sen. Feinstein would not do so because they are a bigot. To my post: "or else they'll do something real stupid and get Feinstein out of California to pull the womans votes which I think will hurt more because she will be identified as another liberal and the fact that she is jewish will lose a lot of votes from the bigots." Seems to me you are taking only half of the message and using it to put words in my mouth. Perhaps that is why there is so much "vile hatred" toward republicans. All that is really needed here is for people to at least cite reasons for what they post and also to read and reply to what others actually say.” 8:09:52 PM 3/11/04 “McCain is da man. Someone who America would never elect. I fear that he'll be too old to run in 2008. Besides, the Kerry/? will be running for re-election.......” 8:28:02 PM 3/11/04 How's this for party unity... 10:08:37 AM 5/20/04 “Fiscal responsibility includes tax cuts, riiiight?” 10:18:31 AM 5/20/04 “You can email Speaker Hastert at dhastert@mail.house.gov or call him at 202-225-2976 and remind him who John McCain is. Let him know that only a sanctimonious dickhead would think to lecture a man who spent 5½ years as a POW about ‘sacrifice’, especially when that sanctimonious dickhead spent that same time period as a high school wrestling coach.” 10:26:09 AM 5/20/04 “"All we are called upon to do is not spend our nation into bankruptcy while our soldiers risk their lives. I fondly remember a time when real Republicans stood for fiscal responsibility. Apparently those days are long gone for some in our party." --The more I hear this man, the more I like him.” 10:26:47 AM 5/20/04 “Another Democratic plan for the future.” 10:30:57 AM 5/20/04 “Hey, TR, have another bowl of chili and go back to #&%!$ing bed.” 10:44:21 AM 5/20/04 “I voted for McCain in the Republican primary last time around (in New Hampshire where he won) - he really was the most straight talking guy around. Also, I have a cousin who was a POAW w/McCain - he thinks McCain is a great guy - except that he does have a temper.” 2:22:56 PM 5/20/04 Transcript of my most recent phone call “Operator: "Hello, Senator Hastert's office." Me: "I'm calling to let Mr. Hastert know who John McCain is. John McCain is a former POW who voluntairy stayed in a Hanoi prison to be with his fellow soldiers. He currently is a Senator from Arizona, and on a personal note, the only republican that I respect." Secretary: "OK" Me: "Please pass this message to the speaker, and maybe he'll quit saying stupid things about honorable war heros in the future. Thanks.."” 2:24:33 PM 5/20/04 “Operator: "Hello, Senator Hastert's office." Me: What are you wearing? Operator: *click* Ah well. Buddha wins.” 2:26:32 PM 5/20/04 “I vote for Phaedrus!” 2:28:13 PM 5/20/04 “Operator: "Hello, Senator Hastert's office." Me: "Please tell the Speaker I am disappointed to be an American today. The fact that he can let politics allow him to slur a great American like John McCain is really sad." Operator: "Are you another one of those crazy Trail Talk bastards?" Me: *click*” 2:30:38 PM 5/20/04 “She did have a nice voice.” 2:31:12 PM 5/20/04 “McCain is one of the few politicians with anything between his legs, the others ought to take notice. If we ever get away from LCD politics, maybe we will have some leadership. Kerry-McCain in 04? Only if Kerry proves to be similarly endowed.” 3:30:37 PM 5/20/04 “I've noticed that the same people who are praising McCain standing by his core values and pulling away from his party's directions and condeming Zell Miller for doing the same thing. I've seen almost nothing from the Republicans on either issue. Just some observations that I found interesting.” 3:49:56 PM 5/20/04 “I can only speak for myself but I'm an independent. I could care less about party. Principled leaders of good conscience are hard to find and deserve everyone's support. I don’t know how many of you caught McCain and Biden on ‘Meet the Press’. They disagree with each other – I disagree with both of them on many issues – but they treat each other with respect. McCain made a call to end the partisanship that is making it impossible to reach any sort of consensus. Democracy can only work through compromise. That's why a Kerry/McCain fushion ticket could be exactly what this country needs. I know it's only a dream.” 4:04:43 PM 5/20/04 “Kerry/Miller? Gack!” 4:06:12 PM 5/20/04 “Fiddleboy, 1. Independent huh. You've displayed such hatered for President Bush that I have trouble picturing you as independent. 2. End to partisanship?? The Democrat version of bipartisanship is everybody doing it their way. No compromise. 3. Kerry/McCain ticket? OK with me (like I have anything to say about it). Set it up and see how it goes.” 4:11:21 PM 5/20/04 “I'm registering as a republican. Does that mean I'll need to start supporting the death penalty?” 4:12:33 PM 5/20/04 “McCain is the best republican since Abe Lincoln” 4:19:46 PM 5/20/04 “"I've noticed that the same people who are praising McCain standing by his core values and pulling away from his party's directions and condeming Zell Miller for doing the same thing. I've seen almost nothing from the Republicans on either issue. Just some observations that I found interesting......." I'm right here, NP! Let me just say that for the record, Mr. McCain, and I use that term loosely, is a traidorous SOB. How DARE that man speak out against the Rech......I mean Right?” 4:25:25 PM 5/20/04 “Q, bite me” 4:26:57 PM 5/20/04 “Oops, sorry that was uncalled for. Now, I'm sounding like you lefties. I'll try to control myself and not lower myself to that level again.” 4:30:08 PM 5/20/04 Jump to Page |  1 | 2
