Stop being puppets for the Republican Party!

I don’t mean to be critical, but c’mon. Saying that McCain is a champion for Christianity is like calling Obama the Messiah for the Jews.

The Republicans have had their chance to overturn pro-choice legislation, they only do enough to retain the evangelical vote. Don’t get me wrong, some do care, but John McCain does not. Both of these candidates are corrupt and godless, yet Christians continue to be parrots for the Republican party.

For a guy campaigning on family values, John McCain has broken up a lot of marriages. When he met his first wife (a swimsuit model), she was married to naval academy classmate of his. After he broke that marriage up, she stuck by him loyally as he went off to war and was a prisoner for five and a half years. When he returned to America, though, he found out that she had been in a car wreck and wasn’t as pretty. So he had a series of affairs, by his own admission, and dumped his wife and adopted family for a younger, very rich blond (now Cindy McCain). Cindy, the daughter of a wealthy Budweiser beer distributor, was addicted to prescription narcotics and even stole hard drugs from a medical charity that she ran. In February, 2008, the New York Times ran a big article about the unusually close relationship between John McCain and a young telecommunications lobbyist named Vicki Iseman (who looks uncannily like Cindy McCain did when SHE was 25). They became so close that his staff, convinced they were having an affair, confronted both McCain and Iseman, telling them to back off. Now, a lot of people have criticized the Times for hinting without actually saying that McCain had sexual relations with that woman. But really, it doesn’t matter. It’s a matter of record that he accepted money and favors from her, spent a lot of time for her, and did favors for her clients. Among other things, McCain wrote two letters — from a draft provided by Vicki Iseman — to the head of the Federal Communications Commission — which was way out of line, since McCain headed the Senate Commmerce Committee, which controls the FCC. McCain’s pressure was so outrageous that, even though McCain was in charge of funding his commission, the FCC commissioner wrote a letter back rebuking him for his interference, at the height of McCain’s “ethics in government” campaign.

So, was McCain sleeping with her, hoping to sleep with her, or being subconsciously manipulated by a cute young woman? It doesn’t really matter. He was being led by his groin into ethical violations. Let’s face it, he was 64 at the time and is 72 now. Whether he is still cheating or not, he seems to be led by his penis; witness the videos on YouTube of McCain checking out Sarah Palin’s butt during the speech where he introduced her.

Do I even need to start talking about the Keating 5 scandal where McCain intervened on behalf of Charles Keating after Keating gave McCain at least $112,000 in contributions. Remember that that whole scandal cost taxpayers $3.4 billion.

Not to mention the recent bailout which he voted for. Both of these candidates are crooks.

What about the fact that his wife Cindy was a serious narcotics addict who created a charity for sick children (American Voluntary Medical Team or AVMT), then used it to get fraudulent prescriptions for Vicodin and Percocet. And a whistleblower from her staff says that John McCain and his senate staffers helped Cindy smuggle her ill-gotten narcotics through customs.

In 1995, McCain sent birthday regards, and regrets for not attending, to Joseph “Joe Bananas” Bonano, the head of the New York Bonano crime family, who had retired to Arizona. Another politician to send regrets was Governor Fife Symington, who has since been kicked out of office and convicted of seven felonies relating to fraud and extortion.

OK, I’ll stop here — but if this guy is considered a champion of Christian values simply because he gives lip-service to the pro-life issue, it only goes to show how Americans no longer think or read!

If you want a real champion of Christian values in 2008, vote for Chuck Baldwin.
