McCain just admitted that he puts party before country
1st he says that Lieberman is putting country over party.

Then hes asked if he would endorse Lieberman in the race and he says he supports the Republican nominee because he is a Republican?

Isnt this putting party ahead of country?
Isnt this a flipflop???

2. Not a flip-flop
Just an example of being able to rationalize hypocrisy.

1. McCain is a party loyalist. Therefore he will support anything that he thinks will help his party.

2. Lieberman being a party traitor hurts the Democrats, which will therefore help the Republicnas; therefore it is
good.

3. In cases of rational argument or thought, see #1

4. it is
He said what Lieberman was doing was putting the country before party by running again against Lamont. Then he was asked if he would support Lieberman and he said no, he supports the Republican nominee. Isnt that putting party before country?

5. party before Country
and McCain would dry-hump Coultergeist on Fox News Prime Time if he thought it would help his chances of being the Republican nominee in '08.
