"Unveiling the image on his website, Adam Bouska, the founder of the campaign, said: "In the year since we've started the NOH8 Campaign we've often been surprised at some of the different individuals who have approached us showing their support. Few, though, have surprised us more than Cindy McCain."

There's just no geting around it. John McCain is a sell out. He gives up what is right and true for what is politically expedient. His lady folk have more social sense. They have the capacity to set aside expediency and politics and to speak their mind. The spark of godfire burns within them brightly. No religion here; godfire in the ancient Greek context.
Their man is too concerned with his own position in the world to consider what is obviously right and necessary. These ladies have more balls (in the more colloquial sense of the word) than their husband/father. I see stuff like this and I consider never ever voting for a man again. There have been brain scans to show women are superior on the right side of the brain, haven't there?

There's also a deep history of many conservative men, who are against gay anything and have a significant relative who is gay. Reagan and his daughter, Gingrich and his daughter (I think), Bono and his daughter. I'm sure other examples of such relationships exist.

Not sure, Max...after all I'm just a man. I'll ask my mother. ;-D

"What are all your compliments worth if you haven't any brain?"
They are worth much more than if they came from me! By process of elimination, I come to the conclusion that those compliments could have only originated in my wife's brain. And as I have previously stated, she is smart by virtue of her being female, so the compliments are doubly sound.
God knows, I have always lusted after gorgeous men, but I have always recognized that special something about women. It's not necessarily physical, but the ladyfolk are very dear to me. I look upon them as godesses.

"Oh! Max! You must thank Judy for giving me some of the nicest feelings! And I really thought they came from you (actually I still do!)"
What I am is what genetics and environment have made me. That statement sounds so damned Presbyterian that I wish I could rephrase it. But, of course, with an atrophied brain, I'll have to ask her how.
You should feel good about yourself regardless of what people say. You know yourself better than anyone else.
Whatever happened to English reserve? Your Southern European heritage is showing.
And believe me on this, you have no idea about the nice feelings that Judy can give. ;-D

Not making a point on the male vs female issue here, I got a reply from McCain that his concept on marriage is that it should be "traditional". Given that, it would also mean that he is opposed to inter-racial marriage, which was the tradition form in most US states up to sometime after the middle of the 20th century.
Back when Keating (a financial robber-barren) was defrauding several pension plans out of millions, McCain was one of the Keating Five, and McCain did profit by it financially. Keating served minor jail time (country club style) but not McCain, and most of the money has never been paid back to the pension funds.
Keating who also was chief of an national anti-pornography group, and he had CC&Rs in some of his 'communities' where he and his group had the right to enter a home in the community and dictate what could be hung on the walls of someone's private residence.
As a resident of Phoenix, AZ, I resent that McCain is still being elected. Unfortunately we have a large population of ancient residents who may be too senile to notice facts.
Sorry about the tirade, but McCain is a blundering idiot.

Well, I'm not takin' sides or anything, but wasn't he the guy who vaulted Sarah Palin to Republican stardom? What was that all about? I mean, I'm startin' ta feel queasy here.
