John McCain the Amnesty Whore

I’ve posted at length about Barack Obama. So, it’s about time I had something to say about John McCain and his policies.
He’s not your grandfather’s conservative. The “campaign finance reform” legislation that bears his name displays contempt or indifference to the constitutional guarantee of freedom of speech. The disgusting thing about this “campaign finance reform” is that it has done nothing to reform campaign financing. It has just made it easier for the incumbents in congress to get reelected. And it has made it almost impossible for an outsider to run against anyone in congress. So McCain favors members of congress being able to keep their positions regardless of their effectiveness or lack there of. And he snuck it through hidden in a Trojan horse of mock “reform.”
I am very disappointed in McCain’s endless flogging of “comprehensive” immigration “reform.” Give me a break. Basically he’s an amnesty whore. And here, also, he is indifferent to concerns and wishes of the American public. He doesn’t care that the majority of Americans want nothing to do with his sellout legislation.
Closing the borders is basically a national security issue. As it now stands, anyone who wants can come across our border with anything they can carry. Call me crazy, but I don’t think this is the optimal situation when you are at war with a guerilla force. It plays to their strengths. And the flood of people entering to find work or sell drugs just gives cover to people we really, really don’t want entering without our knowledge. And if amnesty is seriously contemplated it just further motivates this to continue. With all of his talk about national security, McCain is clueless to this major threat to our safety. More than that, he is deeply committed to making the situation worse.
So this is how I see McCain. He doesn’t care about free speech except to suppress it. He is more concerned with keeping his job and helping the rest of the thieving bribe takers in congress to stay in office, public be damned. And he is far from fully committed to national security.
