John McCain has done everything to push conservative voters away: he is against interrogating terrorists who have no problem lopping off the heads of the U.S. military. Water boarding on the other hand is cruel and unusual punishment; John McCain signed the Amnesty Bill to allow free-loading illegals entrance and protection in the U.S. while stealing American’s tax dollars, jobs, education, and healthcare; remember those fabulous “Z Visas” McCain wanted granted to all illegals living in the U.S. for five years? John McCain even placed a gag order on free speech with his McCain-Feingold Bill and voted against the Bush tax-cuts twice, but will support them for the 2008 vote.

This is the same man who told Tim Russert back in 2005 that he felt Hillary Clinton “would make a good president.”

Now it would seem John McCain is running as Al Gore without the Grecian Formula.

Back in 2004, John McCain let his support of all things green become well known as he told the Senate the North Pole's climate temperatures were rising. McCain gave his alleged proof by-way-of the International Commission known as Arctic Climate Impact Assessment.

The Nation Magazine proudly discussed McCain’s greenness in a 2004 article and his statement that human beings are the cause of global warming. The Senator said while on a trip to the Arctic he witnessed with his own eyes the Arctic rapidly melting before his eyes: “it was remarkable going up on a small ship next to this glacier and seeing where it had been just 10 short years ago and how quickly it’s receded.”

Al Gore had a moment like that when he watched his hair rapidly recede and his weight rapidly increase.

Most of ACIA’s members are from the North Pole area: Canada, the land of liberals hiding U.S. AWOL-ers, Denmark, Finland, Iceland—there’s a reason we call it that since it’s a mound of ice, Norway, and Russia, the country with thousands of miles of thick Perma Frost covering its northern border.

Fast forward four years to Monday May 13, 2008 and John McCain has further incarnated into Al Gore in a speech at a Portland, Oregon Wind Turbine Manufacturer where McCain stated he supports the Cap-and-Trade System he and other environmental loons claim will reduce the domestic carbon emissions caused by humans with the utter gall to drive cars and fly in planes.

According to the liberal authoritative source of all things true, the New York Times, McCain “called for a mandatory limit on greenhouse gas emissions in the United States to combat climate change,” and further stated he would not “shirk the mantle of leadership [President Bush has ignored] that the United States bears, I will not permit eight long years to pass without serious action on serious challenges.”

And thus The Nation magazine was correct in 2004 when calling McCain an Environmental Republican. I can think of a few things to call him, but they’re not printable.

One thing I will say is John McCain is helping the Democrats into the White House by shoving conservatives in front of the on coming train of liberal ideology.

McCain scored points with liberals as he further stated that “global warming demands our urgent attention, especially in Washington.” Either McCain believes this load of damaging gas emitting manure he’s spewing or he’s trying desperately to court the liberal vote away from Hillary and Obama. Either way it is manure since all politicians fly around in jets that use fuel, drive in gigantic SUV’s the rest of us are condemned for driving because they use fuel, and live in large oil heated houses.

According to Senator McCain, the most credible scientists around the world have proof “that time is short and the dangers [to the planet] are great.”

That would be the five long-haired bearded guys wearing Star Trek T-shirts who have been living in an isolated trailer on the North Pole for 30 years freezing their butts off and looking for any excuse to get the hell out of
the North Pole.

McCain stated he is in full support of the bogus Kyoto Protocol he slammed Bush for not embracing, calling the lack of support for the environmental gimmick a “dead-end,” and “failed diplomacy.” Maybe that’s because Kyoto really is a dead-end failure.

McCain has also blames Bush for not reacting quickly enough to Hurricane Katrina victims. Apparently Bush should have swam in and saved everyone in New Orleans who Mayor Nagin refused to bus out because he’s a crook who had no time to save his own people. Thus the blame always lies with the Republicans, not the Louisiana Democrats who refused to build stronger Levees with the money those Democrats pocketed.

McCain’s Oregon speech is not the speech of a conservative; it is the rhetoric of a liberal Democrat. John McCain is now officially the third Democrat in the race for the White House Republicans must hold onto in order to stop this country from becoming the next EU-style nation.

McCain knows full well a Cap-Trade System will only hurt the country and the economy while it destroys businesses.

According to the May 13, 2008 Wall Street Journal, John McCain intends to accomplish his greenhouse clean-up by placing an “emissions ceiling on all electric power, transportation fuels—their go low prices at the tank and cheap air travel—commercial business and industries.” In other words, he is going to fine all businesses with heavy penalties the American people will suffer through ala Jimmy Carter.

John McCain’s oil inheritance is fully exempt of course.

McCain told Oregon he will give industries “permits” every time they use less carbon emissions. Barack Obama says he will “auction” off the “permits” to businesses and industries. Either way the plan is the same tax- hiking liberal punishment Democrats love to use as weapons against business and industry they so hate despite owning stock in everything they try to destroy.

If you can’t smell the barrel of pork frying in the pan you might be a liberal.

For everyone who lived through the 1970’s, think Jimmy Carter all over again, because that is what McCain’s plan is: a promise to impose a carbon footprint in the U.S. rear via Washington liberals.

McCain’s plans are in synch with Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama: enormous tax-hiking punishments for using gasoline to fuel houses, cars, airplanes, and every type of industry liberals want out of business.

Like Hillary and Obama, McCain is against drilling in ANWAR. It might upset the growing Polar Bear population liberals claim is dying out due to melting glaciers that will pour down upon New York City any day now. Like his two liberal counterparts, McCain is against building new oil refineries which would make the U.S. independent from cheap Saudi Oil; McCain is against building new nuclear power plants to solve the energy crisis all three candidates claim America is suffering from; and as McCain proved when he slammed North Carolina voters, he too is against coal mining expansion but not putting people out of work.

John McCain would rather Al Gore-it to every American while he and Al Gore fly in their private jets, drive their SUV’s, and collect oil stocks they are both heirs to.

The rest of us can put our footprints in the dirt and walk.

John McCain needs to get in to his liberal-minded brain that Republicans are trying to hold on to the White House not hand it over to two socialist libertines. John McCain may not be a conservative but the least he can do is stop acting like Al Gore and act like a conservative to win the election and keep the Democrats out of the White House.
