John,
-- you play to many side's of the isle for my taste, you have a few to many faces.IMy money and blood are only pledged for men with a single face. One that does not sniff the wind ...I honor your service to our Country you inspired and lifted the souls of men trapped behind enemy lines in 'Nam. But now you are in the way of the rebirth of a new stronger GOP, There is a show down coming and there is no room for men with wobbly knees when it comes to the corruption in DC. When the people who are know awake have spoken, DC will be remade in the Image of a true democratic Republic again....the re-birth of America is at hand. and you my dear old maverick are a centrist,This not a time to be mealy mouthed, soft-bellied. or quasi(nazi)-socialistic..America is Waking up, and she is pissed.

My Friend,
Last week, I emailed you about my opposition to the massive $410 billion omnibus spending bill before the U.S. Senate. On Tuesday night, the bill was passed by the Senate and was quickly signed into law by President Obama behind closed doors.
"The President's rhetoric is impressive, but his statement affirms we will continue to do business as usual in Washington regarding earmarks in appropriations legislation."
Senator John McCain
As a vocal opponent of this bill - one that is filled with over 9,000 earmarks wasting $7.7 billion of your tax dollars - I urged President Obama to use his veto power to reject the bill so we could start over without the pork.
I believed there was no better time for President Obama, a man who pledged to, "go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely," to veto this spending bill that is simply wasting your money.
Unfortunately, President Obama chose to pass up this opportunity to reject wasteful spending - giving you and I as taxpayers excuses as to why he will not publicly reject the pork in this bill.
I certainly hope President Obama will do as he said and stop this type of wasteful spending. If he won't, then it's up to us to hold him to his word.
I'm asking you to join me in sending a message to President Obama - keep your campaign promise to the American people to meaningfully end pork-barrel spending!
I've spent my career in the U.S. Congress fighting against this type of egregious spending. With your support, we'll keep the pressure on Congress to put an end to unauthorized earmarks once and for all.
Country First PAC, my political action committee, is dedicated to electing like-minded reform candidates to federal office who will join us in our fight against pork-barrel spending. And that's why I'm asking you to support us today with a generous contribution of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500 or more right away.
It's more important than ever that we elect leaders to Congress who will act in the best interest of the taxpayer and who will not dig us further into debt. Your financial support will enable my fellow reformers to continue fighting against pork-barrel spending. We must continue to hold President Obama and his allies accountable for the many promises of "change" they made while campaigning for president and other offices.
Thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
John McCain
Chair, Country First PAC
P.S. President Obama passed up an opportunity to fulfill a campaign promise of putting an end to earmarks by refusing to veto the enormous $410 billion omnibus spending bill. We must hold all elected officials responsible to spend our taxpayer dollars wisely. And it is my hope, my friend, that you will join me today in taking action to continue our fight against pork-barrel spending. Please follow this link to make a contribution to Country First PAC so that we are able to support my fellow reformers in Congress who will hold President Obama's feet to the fire and end wasteful spending once and for all. Thank you. - John
