Cloaks of protection

We who differ on the issues from the McCain/Palin cannot express our differences because of the cloaks of protection that keep those who differ from expressing that difference.
If you differ from McCain or call him out on his wishy-washy, flip-flot on many issues, you are attacking a war veteran or a senior citizen.
If you different from Palin or call her out on lying about things like her original support for the bridge to nowhere, you are bashing her because she is a woman.
Though I am sure that McCain and Palin probably are nice people, I just do not think our country would be best served by a life-long politician and an inexperienced politician.
McCain once opposed Bush when he ran against him in 2000. But since that time has embraced all of Bush’s stands on the issues.
And, we all know that McCain chose Palin, not because she was the best candidate for VP, but because she is a woman and she is an ultra-conservative. If he had chosen the best candidate, it probably would have been Ridge. But Ridge favors a woman’s right to choose.

And how is that different from those who disagree with Obama regularly being called "racists"?

I have also noticed that the GOP are trying to "create their own reality". But that only happens on TV. lol. We that call out the lying and "unintelligence" of the McCain/Palin ticket know otherwise. And now, some GOP are also calling out John and Sarah. That's "putting country first". lol.

Ignore them and speak what's on your mind.
