IF, as does Jules Crittenden, one believes that “there is a single issue that trumps all others”, it’s perfectly logical to support and vote for John McCain. This certainly in preference to Obama (who hasn’t a hint of a clue in respect to foreign policy) and somewhat less so in respect to Hillary (who seemingly has an element of realism in her shambles of a foreign policy).

BUT, if one believes that the unlimited immigration McCain favors will destroy our country, if one believes that the disdain McCain has for freedom of speech (McCain-Feingold) is a harbinger of similar further limitations, if one believes that McCain’s opposition to tax cuts is unimportant, if one believes that McCain’s support of the global warming hoax will spell economic disaster for our country, if one believes that McCain’s refusal to support the confirmation of constitutionalist judges is an indication of what he would pick by way of judges if he were president, etc. are actually important issues and deserve equal time with the war (which, by the way, someone who believes waterboarding should be banned and Gitmo closed is ill equipped to wage), then Jules Crittenden is saying is that those who disagree with him profoundly as to the state of the argument should simply bow to his superior wisdom and vote his conscience.

I, and many others, think it is he who does not understand the situation and consequently think his suggestions foolish. I am not going to vote for a man who strikes me as temperamentally unstable to be leader of the free world, especially not one whose positions on a goodly number of key issues are of the left. I will vote, but when it comes to the office of President of the United States, it will not be for John McCain (or, for that matter, for Hillary or Obama).
