Senator John McCain has lost my support for the presidency in 2008. He won my support when he stood up to President Bush in the last campaign. He stood up to the religious right; he was a man for all seasons and for all parties. Democrats wanted to run him for vice president; imagine a Republican running for vice president on the Democratic ticket? He was THAT attractive.
What happened? Well for one, he started kissing Jerry Falwell’s ass (Religious Right) something you thought he would never do, I mean make friends but don’t bend over?
And recently, he came out strong in support of President Bush and his new “surge” plan for Iraq.
To me, supporting Bush’s new plan is abandoning all reason and forgetting everything that has transpired in Iraq to date. One would have to be allowing politics to come before the welfare of this country and that, a true American, should NEVER do.
You may argue that McCain believes leaving Iraq is unacceptable and he has voiced that opinion and so he should propose his own plan on ending this quagmire but to simply agree with Bush’s totally preposterous rationale indicates, to me at least, that McCain does not have the smarts to lead this country.
Adios Amigo!
