Hard Core Neo-con John McBush, McCain

Consortiumnews

Article II Powers

Holtz-Eakin further cited Article II powers of the Constitution in explaining how McCain would act as President, suggesting that McCain -- like Bush -- would exercise virtually unlimited executive powers for the duration of the indefinite "war on terror."

McCain also has announced that he would appoint Supreme Court justices like Samuel Alito and John Roberts who -- along with Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas -- represent four votes in favor of reinterpreting the Constitution to grant the President the broad powers claimed by Bush and McCain.

If a President McCain gets to replace one of the five other justices with another Alito or Roberts, the new court majority could, in effect, rewrite the rules of the American Republic to declare the imperial presidency "constitutional."

If that happens, the American people would no longer possess "unalienable rights," as promised by the Founders and enshrined in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The President would possess what the neocons call "plenary" -- or total -- power.

John McCain may criticize President Bush on the edges of neoconservative policies, such as failing to prosecute the Iraq War more aggressively, and he may differ with Bush on the efficacy of torture, given McCain's own mistreatment as a Vietnam prisoner of war.

But there should be no doubt that a McCain victory would give the neocons another four-year lease on the White House. And, after those four years, there might be no feasible way back for the great American Republic.     Entire Article

  I hope that you read that very carefully. If not, go back and read it again, very slowly. This is what the country that you and I love will have to face if John McCain makes it into the White House. We cannot have that happen. I for one, love my freedoms, few that I now have, and you probably do also.

   If John McCain, as President, gets the chance to appoint someone to the Supreme Court, then we will all be fucked for a very, very long time. If I had wanted to live under a dictator, I would have moved to Cuba, or Russia, or China or one of the other " controlling " countries on this planet.

  All of the crap that you hear concerning the Protect America Act, FISA, and Homeland Security Department are not in place to protect you or I from a terrorist threat, they are in place to keep track of us.

   The only terrorist that you and I should be mighty concerned with, are the ones in the Republican Party as they are the terrorist!

  Now, read the entire article from above and get educated on McCain and the neo-cons. CONS indeed!
