A self-described "foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution." He voted against expanding the children's health insurance program and against an assault rifle ban. He's against the federal government helping thousands of people who lost homes in the subprime mortgage debacle. But he's OK with the Federal Reserve lending $30 billion to salvage Bear Stearns. What kind of Patriot is he?

Hypocrit.

a patriot who believes people should be self reliant?

why would you want to ban guns? and he wasn't the one taking the pictures.
4 :
He is a Manchurian candidate that graduated last in his class. He loves preemptive (read: random) wars, and wants to stay in Iraq a hundred years. He is a maniac. Great question. To quote another questioner, "How about a war on poverty?" How about a war on starvation?

A patriot wh does not believe in the killing of unborn, innocent children like the demos love to do! That is patriot enough for me.
6 :
That is the most pathetic attempt I have ever seen of trying to question the patriotism of a man who has spent 6 YEARS as a POW in a bamboo cage in the jungle of Vietnam, and came back to make a difference by being a politician. And to call his partiotism into question over his stance on THE SECOND AMENDMENT which was the same stance as the REAL Patriots - you know the guys that fought the Revolutionary War... You liberals are so beyond inappropriate it is unbelievable. I sure hope none of the candidates you support get elected.

He is no patriot. He is a turncoat. He betrays the people of America for the sake of his own agenda

candlewicke (sorry if I got that wrong) is dead on. I cannot believe people are discarding a real question to defend their gun rights. And I love that you brought up the 30 BILLION. FEMA has already forgotten about the Katrina debacle. I was down there with Habitat for Humanity and the government is yanking the rest of the FEMA trailers. Where is the money to help build them houses? Where is the money for education? For Health? We need to get our priorities straight!

They all do that. Same old democrat and same old republican....saying one thing and doing another. The US is in a rut

Maybe this video had something to do with it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKCWbq18bNk I will agree with you about Bear Stearns, I don't think the government should have bailed them out, and I'm a Republican. The Blame for the sub prime mortgage problem should be placed on the shoulders of Borrowers that gave false information when borrowing the money and greedy brokers that lied to people so they could make their commission, and the politicians both Democrat and Republican for allowing these kinds of things to happen.

Because kids need "love" much more than the Democratic way of "excessive Ritalin"! P.S. Chuc'c Son, If you want another War on Poverty, obviously you were not around for LB Johnson's first one!

it's all for show

You have mischaracterized the legislation that you are talking about in your question. Do you actually know what the legislation was and what McCain's reasons were for voting against it? Most people opposed that legislation when it was explained to them and they agreed with the President's and Sen. McCain's positions. Only by misrepresenting the legislation can Democrats get people to sympathize with their position. Unfortunately, most people in the US don't follow Congress and they are easy prey for sentimental appeals such as the Democrats use. Common sense would make them reject these costly, ineffective proposals by an out-of-control Democratic Congress if they knew what these proposals really entailed.

Is this any worse than the global warming (why do you hate your children crap) that Hillary and Obama campaigns spew like venom? Or a celebrity heartthrob supporters who says don't vaccinate your kids, it's murder - then enrorses your candidate and poses for publicity pictures? You better stop worrying about McCain and worry about yourself. You have a problem with innocence and guilt and are much too easily swayed by what's in fashion.

Because he is very deceptive, and wants to appear to have a heart for people when he really doesn't...

Wants to be President! What else? McCain was a child of an Admiral and a grandson of another Admiral who could never measure up...another drunk kid of an achiever from a family of achievers. McCain is a lot like Bush, Junior....no actual accomplishments but wants to be perceived as topping their daddies achievements. McCain cannot be considered as a "patriot" unless he stands up and protects the CONSTITUTION!!!! (which he hasn't...)
