Actually sounds like Jimmy's definition of Conservatism to me! the following elements are usually seen as its integral parts: nationalism, statism, militarism, totalitarianism, anti-communism, corporatism, populism, collectivism, and opposition to political and economic liberalism
Reread those last six words...CONSERVATIVE=Fascist | egambino, your prejudice is shining thru. Conservatives such as myself don't want to control things or censor them, we want freedom to allow to be opted out of such entities, which you intolerant liberals won't allow. Then you twist it so that we're the intolerant ones.???????? None so blind as those that refuse to see!
Back to the McCain issue.
I've heard that McCain has hired a new advisor. Hernandez, I think. A Mexico First guy. I've heard there are new T-shirts started....
"Viva Juan McCain, El Presidente!"
Elect McCain, and we'll soon see he's so much of a Democrat, he makes Democrat Bush look Republican.... |

| | Michelle Malkin » Meet the open borders family: McCain, Hernandez, Soros, and the “Reform Institute” Meet the open borders family: McCain, Hernandez, Soros, and the “Reform Institute”
By Michelle Malkin • January 25, 2008 03:50 PM Follow the bouncing ball with me:
Shamnesty peddler John McCain taps former Mexican government official/shamnesty advocate Juan Hernandez as his presidential campaign Hispanic Outreach Director.
Hernandez is a fellow at McCain’s “Reform Institute.” What has he been working on there for the past year?
“Dr. Juan Hernandez serves as a Senior Fellow of the Institute’s Comprehensive Immigration Reform Initiative.”
That is: Shamnesty.
Among the immigration projects at McCain’s Reform Institute: An art contest in which students depicted their protests against a southern border fence.
The winner on the American side of the border?
Here: The grand prize winner incorporated the specious open-borders propaganda comparing our fence to keep trespassers out to the Berlin Wall designed to wall people in: Is this what McCain believes in his heart, too? No wonder he cursed the “goddamned fence.”
The Reform Institute is a tax-exempt, supposedly independent 501(c)(3) group, as Ed Morrissey noted two years ago, “that employs Rick Davis, who also works on McCain’s staff as his chief political advisor, and they pay him $110,000 per year. The Reform Institute has often supported McCain, paid for events highlighting him and his agenda, presumably including campaign finance reform.” The Reform Institute received $200,000 in donations from Cablevision…and McCain basically tried to intervene on Cablevision’s behalf by writing a letter to the FCC supporting its regulatory agenda. Morrissey noted at the time: “[T]he Reform Institute helps keep McCain’s staff gainfully employed between campaigns, allowing McCain to do less fundraising while retaining the best of the available talent. For instance, Carl Hulse and Ann Kornblut note that Rick Davis managed McCain’s presidential campaign in 2000 before founding Reform Institute. Now its president, he gets over $100,000 a year from RI for “consulting services”. That money allows Davis to remain available for McCain’s future campaigns, and the funding he raises for RI gives him inroads for building support.”
So much for McCain's wanting lobbying out of politics. He only wants everyone else's lobbyists out, really....
