In a display of typical anti-Republican mouth vomit, the New York Times today criticized John McCain for his focus on maintaining a conservative, constitutionalist Supreme Court should he become President. McCain has long hailed Justices Roberts and Alito and continued to do so in his recent speech on judicial nominees.

The NYT editorial starts tricks the reader into thinking they might actually be saying something positive about McCain when they write, "So we are thankful to Senator John McCain for reminding us Tuesday what this year’s presidential race really is about….” But it quickly turns sour.

They continue:

“On a day when Mr. Obama won a decisive victory in North Carolina and Mrs. Clinton eked out a win in Indiana, Mr. McCain spoke about his judicial philosophy. He is determined to move a far too conservative and far too activist Supreme Court and federal judiciary even further and more actively to the right.”

As for more of Roberts and Alito, the Times said, “That is just what the country does not need.”

The country’s most well-known newspaper is gunning for the Democrats despite their forced, half-hearted endorsement of McCain when Republicans were still in limbo for a nominee.

It’s no surprise coming from this liberal hack job – which consistently buries important stories on page 17 and exposes national security secrets on the front page – but it seems their editorials retain absolutely no balance — ever. I am sick of it and so is at least half the country.

The Times twisted their editorial to explain that McCain’s ability to stand outside of a cat fight for the nomination has shown “what is truly at stake in this election and why the country cannot, for example, afford another president committed to packing the courts with activist, right wing judges.”

They stake the tired claim that McCain is too much like President Bush. The editorial ends with this:

“Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama can continue to tear each other up and fight over each superdelegate, or they can debate the issues — for the sake of the voters.”

…Because God forbid John McCain become President and keep our country safe and protect sovereignty as a people. The NYT is right that Clinton and Obama are extremely similar on most policies. They will both leave us prone to attack and prisoner to a growing government.
