I'm sorry, but both Obama and McCain are unrepentant lefties.
Folks, this is not just an opinion.

Most Americans will vote for either John McCain or Barack Obama on November 4th, which means that most Americans will vote for a lefty. No matter what the rhetoric flying from either campaign, both McCain and Obama are unapologetic lefties. And this is not necessarily a bad thing.
Bear with me.
Both Presidents Reagan and Clinton were also lefties. Jimmy Carter? Aside from our current President, he was the last righty to be elected.
It is evidently true. Lefties comprise about 10% of the population, while – including the next President – 5 Presidents of seven since 1974 will have been lefties.
Researchers who have studied handedness have found links to genetics and to brain function, but there is no prevailing theory to explain the plethora of left-handed commanders in chief in recent decades.
Yet the trend is more than a statistical anomaly, a professor of neurology and psychiatry at the University of California Los Angeles School of Medicine, Daniel Geschwind, said.
"It's definitely not an accident. The chance is less than one in a thousand," he said.
Before 1974, just two presidents were known definitively to be left-handed: James Garfield and Harry Truman.
I write, pitch, and bat with my right hand, so I think I'll sit this Presidential election out. Concentrate on down-ballot stuff where we have some decent right-handed candidates.

It's the one minority group I'm a member of, so I try and take advantage of it.
Though even as a lefty, I'm an anomaly. I throw and write lefthanded but shoot and bat righthanded.
Fortuna Favet Fortibus
Throw and write left-handed, use scissors right-handed, and I kick with my right foot on top of it all.

Considers fear of communism inordinate, the Ayatollah a religious man we can deal with, and Israel an apartheid state in moral equivalence with Arafat's death cult?

I can't stand Obama or anything he stands for. Pretty sure he is one hundred percent bought and paid for by George Soros and the rest of the hedge fund whores.
But, please don't pretend that John McCain is anything but Obama lite. I keep waiting for that guy to say one thing that really inspires my conservative soul. In the words of Judge Smales, "Welllllllll? We're Waiitttting!"
Newt-trained, post-911 wants a legacy and should have listened to Dick Morris on terrorism instead of listening to Monica post-911 Bill Clinton.
No, Obama is light years worse, and DeVine is a far right Reaganite on all issues that has major probs with McCain. Bill Clinton as front man for the kooks led to my conversion, so I don't love him either, but Obama is a whole marxist, hate whitey racist, ignorant fool.
McCain's refusal to leave the pow camp when offered should inspire you. His stand on the war should. His votes on judges should. His econ platform on taxes should. His recent changes on oil drilling should.
He will not let America lose a war. He will inspire real patriotism among the yutes and all of us.

to call yourself a Reaganite while tearing into the Republican nominee. Please don't drag the President into that.
The sentence should read, "DeVine is a far right conservative on all issues that has major probs with McCain."
Look at what I said in the very post you replied to and this

to be very off putting, and both my grandad (age 76) and dad (age 65) died of lung cancer. Dad said that had he not had Winstons, given how rough his life was, he may have offed himself much earlier (he was joking, but the point was that we all make choices to get thru this think called life)
And most of these leftists that treat RJ Reynolds like Beelzebub, are perfectly fine with orgies in the streets, condoms and menage au troi training in jr high and the legalization of ecstasy.

Where we don't attack and defame these sinister people who's only fault is they use the wrong hand. Shame shame Redstate reach out to our left handed brethren with the correct hand.

At this this left-handed Master Chief is in his right mind!
I was wondering who was going to dredge out this worn out witticism that my lefty friends try to use.

and now, and this is real serious, let us pray that Barack will leave that wicked witch he is married to. No man should suffer under that thumb.
