Charlotte Thompson Iserbyt, a former Senior Adviser for the Reagan Administration, sent letters to all 1500 State delegates in Maine warning them about McCain. The letter is as follows:

As a delegate to our state convention this coming weekend we have a solemn obligation to know the truth about the man who has been anointed the "presumptive nominee" of our party. Our job is not to be a rubber stamp for anyone else's agenda, no matter how "nobly" the cause is presented. The Republican establishment in Maine is counting on us not having the documented information on this sheet. It is counting on our willingness to be told what to think in the same way that the mainstream media has been telling us what to think throughout this entire election cycle. We are expected to suspend any other concerns we may have in the name of "party unity".

The truth is that a patriot who loves his country also makes it an ultimate priority to be well-educated about the decisions he or she must make. Unless we have come to understand how dominated by the leftist military-industrial complex America's major media has become, and done some research, we are not prepared to do our duty at the convention.

This letter, supported by many delegates to the Republican Convention, is literally about saving the party and the nation from a maniacal neoconservative war monger, who supports a United States presence in Iraq for 100 years, and who is not really even a Republican.

"War hero" image is a media creation not supported by the facts.

McCain graduated 894th of the 899 cadets in his class at the Naval Academy. Google It. Why would we want someone who was a failure and took his responsibilities so flippantly as our commander-in-chief?

McCain was an irresponsible pilot who crashed 6 planes, and started a major fire on an aircraft carrier through negligent action. Why would we want someone this reckless in the most-important office on the planet?

McCain collaborated with the enemy, was given "soft" treatment because his father was an admiral, and is known as "Songbird McCain" by those who were imprisoned with him. He is the MIA/POW family's worst enemy for his constant attempts to belittle their concerns and stifle their inquiries while serving in the Senate.

McCain ditched his ill wife to marry an heiress when he returned from Vietnam

Is this the type of morality we Republicans condone? Is this type of heinous lack of loyalty we want in a President? He also has a track record of shocking verbal abuse..."

"including screaming profanities against his Senate Republican colleagues. Senator Thad Cochran, MS, says "The thought of his being President sends a cold chill down my spine." Other Senators relate times when McCain screamed four-letter obscenities right in their faces in the Senate cloak room, like Dick Shelby, Rick Santorum or Jim Imhofe. "The man is unhinged," one senator said. "He is frighteneningly unfit to be commander-in-chief."
The truth is, John McCain is not even a Republican. He is a phony stalking horse who is a liberal in disguise. He not only can't win this fall because he is so out of step with the majority of Americans and with the principled stands of Republicanism, but if we support this person for our nominee, he will likely destroy our party. Consider:

* He was intimately involved in the "Keating 5" Savings & Loan scandal
* He has been endorsed by the liberal/leftist New York Times
* He is a big advocate of the extreme "green" global warming scare, and the economically horrific "solutions" being proposed by people like Al Gore.
* He has promoted illegal amnesty for millions of illegal aliens
* His McCain-Feingold bill has destroyed much of the rights of people to take part in the political process the way they see fit. This bill remains un-Constitutional and a major affront to the First Amendment protections on the right of free speech.
* He is a big-time gun grabber who is an extreme advocate of restrictions on 2nd Amendment rights.
* He opposes repeal of Roe v. Wade, and opposes a Constitutional amendment to protect all life.
* He is no fiscal conservative, and he supports raising taxes on Social Security benefits.
* He continues his aggressive support for the Iraq War, which costs the U.S. taxpayer $12 billion a month, even though only 34% of Americans support the war. 4,538 Americans have died in the war. 29,780 have been wounded. 300,000 soldiers are suffering from major depression, and 320,000 received brain injuries, all as a result of this unconstitutional and immoral war.

We will hear much about "unity" at the Maine State Convention. However, it is very important that we understand that to unify behind this man is tantamount to nominating a Democrat. We can vote our consciences or abstain from voting.

John McCain did poorly in our Maine caucuses. By most estimates he got fewer than 20% of the delegates to the State Convention coming out of our caucuses and was soundly trounced by both Romney and Texas Congressman Ron Paul. McCain did not win a single county in the straw poll, with 15 counties going to Romney and one going to Dr. Paul. McCain has little support nationally...there are never huge rallies for McCain, unless people are paid to show up. In short, he is a media creation and the darling of the Trotskyite neoconservative warmongers who have hijacked our party. He does not support our own platform!

Former Romney supporters who receive this info sheet DO NOT have to follow the "uncalled for" advice of the Massachusetts governor that you go over the cliff with support for this unstable man.

DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF OR YOUR VOTE TO BE PROSTITUTED IN THE NAME OF PARTY UNITY. PUT YOUR COUNTRY FIRST!

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter and for being such an important part of our representative form of government - the envy of the world!"

I don't really like this

I don't really like this letter.. It follows the same thought process that was and still is going with the RP campaign. The "even though not nearly enough people voted for him, if we convince enough delegates to neglect the wishes of the people they represent he can still win" mind set.

Although this sounds awesome for us and Ron Paul, isn't this the very thing we're fighting against? Freedom.

People have the freedom to chose a shitty president like Mccain, even if it destroys the nation. Of course we have the right to be pissed at our peers and try and change the nations perspective on whats going on and wake them up, but trying to win over delegates without winning the voters is pretty low.

Imagine if Ron Paul got the majority and Mccain was sneaking around trying to win delegates by emails (which he probably would do). We would be pissed as hell.

Im not 100% sure what this has to do with this email sent to delegates in Maine, only that it gives me the same uneasy feeling like we're making a sneaky move that if worked would put the whole electoral system to shame (even more than it is).

Unfortunately I don't know

Unfortunately I don't know my Bible that well, but personally, I think McCain is that fellow in Biblical prophesy who is referred to as having been wounded in the head and healed miraculously.

Doesn't this wounded in the head, but healed, person replace "3 Kings" and assume the role of one king over all the lesser kings?

It all sounds a bit like McCain will be the one who will get rid of the Canadian and Mexican leaders and take over from Bush only to lead North America and the World into a massive war for Israel in the Middle East.

Someone please tell me I am a crazy mixed up person!

According to information

According to information available on the Internet, the author of this posting was "Senior Policy Advisor in the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI), U.S. Department of Education," during the Reagan administration, which is hardly a "senior Adviser (sic) for the Reagan Administration" as such words are generally interpreted. (I myself was detailed to the staff of the Reagan White House executive office of the president as a junior official so have some familiarity with such matters.)

John McCain has a lifetime 82 Rating from the American Conservative Union, making him solidly Center Right. As McCain, reportedly, has a 0% rating from NARAL and a 15% rating from the AFL-CIO, as well as chronically low ratings from other Liberal groups, it is baffling to imagine on allegations such as those contained in this letter are based. (There are many other badly ungrounded allegations presented.)

John McCain enjoys my wholehearted support and I expect him to make a great president. I do not expect many people here to agree, and that is not why I am here. It's perfectly appropriate, and even welcome, for his opponents to engage in principled disagreement with his voting record or his campaign platform.

But to engage in vilification only brings discredit to the forum in which it is presented.

Yes, we all know that John

Yes, we all know that John McCain’s lifetime American Conservative Union rating is 82.3%. However, his average rating for the years 1998-2006 is 74%; and that makes him one of the most LIBERAL Republicans in Congress. When you add in his support for the war, which is liberal in historical context, the numbers get dismally low.

If you research the allegations made in the letter, which I contend you haven't, you'll find that they are all true.

Let's hope he picks a good

Let's hope he picks a good VP and, um, retires early?

Gideon, I think that this

Gideon,

I think that this letter may be bogus. I don't believe that Ms. Iserbyt would skewer the Republican Party, which has endorsed John McCain, in such a manner without suffering party censorship. This letter sounds too good to be true and usually when "we" agree with what is said it doesn't fit the Party slant.

I believe some validation of this letter needs to take place............

Skepticism is always good,

Skepticism is always good, but I'm confident that this letter is the real deal. A fellow RP supporter emailed it to the Ron Paul Meetup Group in Maine, who's email list I joined so I could keep up with what's going on in upcoming primary states.

And as we all know, news about Ron Paul is hard to come by in the local media, but here is a link to a story I found on the subject. http://kennebecjournal.mainetoday.com/blogs/politics/026319.html
