Background: I voted for Bush in 2004 and supported Thompson in the primaries. Conservative issues are very important to me and the things McCain has done over the years has really gotten my ire up.

Having said that, I want to state that I will not support anyone for the presidential election in the fall. Many people would argue that this stance of mine ensure the democrats a victory in November. The only way that this is true is if the Republicans were expecting my vote no matter who they put up. Quite simply, I am not just a party follower. I'm just a 25 year old Michiganian. I hear alot of people saying that for the sake of the GOP, everyone should support McCain. It's just as easy as that? Just because McCain says he is a conservative, and says he is a Republican i should just buy into the party line and vote for him? Thats the kind of politics the left plays. McCain has to earn my vote. Due to his past, he needs alot longer than 9 months to earn my vote. Especially with me knowing that it's an election cycle. That just means that he's trying to say whatever he can to get votes.

I don't need to run down the litany of things that McCain has done to upset and anger Conservatives. We have all heard them numerous times. But because of McCain's past actions i don't ever believe he can be a Conservative. A McCain presidency would be just as disastrous as a Hillary or Obama presidency oh let me count the ways.

1.) McCain has proven that he is more than willing to "work with the democrats". He actually shows that he is quite willing to abandoning his party and actually helping the left advance their cause. As a president with a Democrat majority in the Senate and House, he is going to have a lot of Democrats to work with. I'd be very surprised if he worked with Republicans to get anything passed that would appeal to Conservatives.

2.) Global Warming. McCain has stated that he actually believes this myth is a problem. The man wants to destroy our economy and way of life in order to limit emissions and make sure we don't drill in places like ANWR. Do we as Conservatives want this done with a Republican president in office? I don't.

3.) Immigration. McCain will hand the reigns on this beast over to Democrats. Amnesty Amnesty Amnesty!

4.) McCain will put a bad taste in the mouth of the American public at large for Republicans. The man will utterly destroy everything we know and put this next to it for the world to see: (R)

5.) 2012. If somehow McCain wins in '08, how can we expect him to win another one in '12? He screws conservatives out of a chance in '12 again just by being in office.

I could keep going on why McCain being in office would ruin this country as well as the Republican party, but i fear it is all a moot point. I think McCain is utterly unelectable and will be destroyed by Obama, and narrowly beaten by Hillary.

No matter what way you slice it, it's a raw deal for Conservatives. I'm voting republican for house and senate seats and hoping for the best from there. There is nothing else that can be done in the presidential election. This much is 100% guaranteed: There will be a liberal in office next year...

Question: Is it worth it to utterly disrupt our way of life, our economy and scientific community in order to perpetuate an un-provable scientific theory in the name of not causing the world's average temperatures to theoretically rise 1 degree celcius over the course of 100 years?

Answer: If you stand to gain from it in the form of votes or increasing government spending on useless projects, yes it absolutely makes sense.

I hear about companies jumping on the Global Warming Bandwagon, most recently FOX, and i can't help but wonder why these companies are doing this. It appears to me that these companies really think they have alot to gain by making people think they are going green or changing the environment. I'm sure much better articles than this have been written about the utter scam that Carbon Credits are, yet i still feel compelled to make a point about it.

Carbon Credits are a scam.

Pure and simple. Al Gore owns a carbon credit company. How convenient. He pays himself money to be "Carbon Neutral".

I saw a couple of women that co-directed a global warming movie with Leonardo DiCaprio. I won't even dignify the movie with the title of it on this post, but the women were talking to Sean Hannity. They were asked if they think people who fly private jets and then promote cleaner transportation and making the masses comply with certain rules, if those people are hypocrites. Their answer was that Hannity was simply trying to shoot the messenger.

Basically that statement shows the arrogance of these people in that they think they have a message from some devout source and that they need the message to  be delivered, despite the actions of the person delivering the message. The idea that  nobody knows what "Global Warming" is, is ridiculous, and the fact that we need it hammered down our throats even more, is the most ridiculous.

Believe in what you want, but don't preach it to me. Practice what you want, but don't enforce it on me. Let the market do what it will, do not regulate it. If people want to regulate themselves as far as hybrids and lighbulbs, let people do it. It's a huge business now and if the market desires stupidity, it will get it. If the market does it to itself, it will be able to be corrected at a later date with more ease than if the government regulates it.

Look at endangered species laws where whole buildings cannot be improved on, or built because of a special rat, bug or bird. How about the turtles down in Florida that follow light, so the residents cannot have their lights on in the evening 3 months before and after the turtles lay their eggs. These examples just show how much of a power grab is going on over this issue, and that too many people are bending over and grabbing their ankles in what they think it protecting planet earth while all it is doing is making some politicians richer and gain votes and funding from whacko fringe groups.
