Gordon Liddy, McCain's radical problem. Every DUer needs to send this to the MSM, yesterday
Advertisements [?]
CHICAGO: Can a presidential candidate justify a long and friendly relationship with someone who, back in the 1970s, extolled violence and committed crimes in the name of a radical ideology — and who has never shown remorse or admitted error?

When the candidate in question is Barack Obama, John McCain says no. But when the candidate in question is John McCain, he's not so sure...

Now a conservative radio talk show host, Liddy spent more than four years in prison for his role in the 1972 Watergate burglary. That was just one element of what Liddy did, and proposed to do, in a secret White House effort to subvert the Constitution. Far from repudiating him, McCain has embraced him...

Last November, McCain went on his radio show. Liddy greeted him as ''an old friend,'' and McCain sounded like one. ''I'm proud of you, I'm proud of your family,'' he gushed. ''It's always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon, and congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great.''...

In 1994, after the disastrous federal raid on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, he gave some advice to his listeners:

''Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they're going to be wearing bulletproof vests. . . . Kill the sons of *****es.''

Send to MSM, tell them to spend three weeks talking about Liddy and Hagee.
