John McCain wants his freedom of speech protected!

This week during a speech in Colorado John McCain (R-INO) was heckled by anti war protesters. Now this is in ht evain of the freedom of speech and in the tradition of those who have given their voice in opposition. This is not what really caught my attention, what he said in response to the heckling was just laughable. Read what he said and then contrast and compare to his McCain Feingold bill.

SEN. McCain: "You know, it's not too important, but I have town hall meetings all the time -- I'll be having one tomorrow -- where people are allowed to come and state their views and we exchange them. And the one thing we don't do is interfere with others people's right to free speech. (Applause.) But that doesn't seem to be the case with these -- with these people."

Below is the link to the entire transcript and video if you care to see for yourself.

And the one thing we don't do is interfere with other peoples right to free speech.

Now that you have had time to digest this and laugh yourself silly or become very angry, ask you self one question. Does this clown really care about freedom of speech or does he want to squelch opposition. He really does not understand that the 1st Amendment applies to all and not to just those that agree with him. You know for someone who takes on the label of Reagan Conservative, really did not understand what Reagan really did. Reagan went to the people direclty and allowed discussions on ideas, ideas about less government, not more. We do not need a government that is going to tell us what we can and cannot say. Unfortunately  that is what we are headed for with John McCain as Big Brother. Oh by the way in case you think that I support the Demoncrats, keep in mind that they want the fairness act, aka the "Hush Rush" bill, passed to shut up opposition toward them. Do we not have the right to assemble and peaceably redress our grievences toward government? I cannot believe that I am saying this, but I support the antiwar activist to do just that. Now incase you are where these documents can be found (The Constitution & the Declaration of Independence) you can find them at Wikipedia

and Heritage.org

Heritage will even send you a free copy in a neat little booklet format, very handy to carry around to read. Why we even have some one like this even running for th eGOP is way beyond me and can we even trust him once his in office to do what is right. Lets recap shall we. McCain Fiengold, McCain Kennedy, & McCain Lieberman, he also stated that he will reach across party lines to do what is necessary.

May 15, 2008 Los Angeles. Sen. McCain said thursday that if elected, his presendency would see Al-Qaida defeated in Iraq and on the run in Afghanistan, an adminstration with Democrats and Republicans serving side-by-side and regular meetings with the press.

If you want to send a message to the GOP, then do not vote for McCain this year but vote for the local and state candidates that you know will not be disloyal to the CONTITUTION!
