McCain, McCain, McCain and McCain!

Two letters of interest in the March 3rd issue of...

LETTERS

Yikes. What a collection of haters in one place!
John McCain seeks to distance himself from the ugly vitriol of James Dobson, Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Michelle Malkin et al. Yet I recall McCain's telling a truly offensive joke about Chelsea Clinton's looks, and responding to a supporter who asked in regard to Hillary, "How do we beat the bitch?" by calling that "an excellent question." So can he really claim the high moral ground here? The reality is that the Republican Party has made hating, dividing and promoting fear its hallmark during the Bush years, and it is naive to expect that it will change, whether it faces Hillary or Obama. The goal of this election must be to take hatred out of power.

THE SO CALLED "JOKE"!

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?
Because her father is Janet Reno."
McCain Response To A Minion's Question, Calling Hillary "The Bitch"

Readers would be mistaken in assuming that McCain is a moderate just because he isn't fascist enough for the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter. As mentioned, McCain is "the arch-hawk on Iraq." There is no good reason for invading Iraq, and with its disastrous consequences, serious doubts arise about McCain's judgment. A leader must learn from mistakes of the past.
