Well, the Sun came up this morning so as we have grown accustomed to in these situations John McCain is back on the attack against his rival John McCain. The fierce fight between the maverick John McCain of the sometimes not so distant past and conservative lapdog and Bush’s boy toy of 2008 has been a virtual bloodbath to this point.

The current battle over immigration and border security started back in 2006 and as always John McCain found himself on the opposite side of the issue as that of John McCain. John McCain, in accordance with his unabated man love for George W. Bush, had adopted Bush’s position that comprehensive immigration reform was needed.

“Our nation’s immigration system is broken. And without comprehensive immigration reform, our nation’s security will remain vulnerable. That is why we must act.”

His rival John McCain however ran on a harder anti-immigrant position last year. While many people will argue that John McCain was simply pandering to the racists and bigots that make up a large part of the Republican base this is just a wild guess.

[I] have pledged that it would be among my highest priorities to secure our borders first, and only after we achieved widespread consensus that our borders are secure, would we address other aspects of the problem in a way that defends the rule of law and does not encourage another wave of illegal immigration.

Recently John McCain has responded to his rival, John McCains, attack on his lenient immigration and border security policy by saying …

“We get in this kind of a circular firing squad on immigration reform in the Congress of the United States, and the lesson I learned from it is we’ve got to have comprehensive immigration reform.”

This furious debate back and forth over the past 2 years between john McCain and John McCain is growing even more heated and the media has finally caught on. Watch this short video about the brutal back and forth between the two men. It’s hard to tell John McCain from John McCain but if you listen to the context I think you can distinguish between them.

Clearly the reporter is also confused about which John McCain was which and she even seems to make the common mistake that they are both the same person. I fully understand this and will admit to making the same mistake when I was younger. What finally clued me in was the realization that the paradox created by so many opposing views within one person would be fatal.

It would be simpler for the Democrats to win in November if they were only facing one opponent. However by their deception the Republicans have found a way to field two candidates, both named John McCain, who together represent both sides of nearly every position. If John McCain ever stops fighting against John McCain the results could be devastating for the Democrats.

Tony Zirkle who recently gave a speech at a birthday celebration for Adolph Hitler, has issued a statement on his official campaign website. As expected its not an apology. Instead I would classify it as a deranged rant about the great tyrant king porn dragon that inspires Jews into pornography and prostitution. [...]
