Why I Don't Like McCain [Part IV]
In the past, he, along with Senator Feingold, proposed what later became a law known as the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act. True, President Bush didn't veto it and he signed it even though he had some hesitations on it, but...McCain was actively involved in limiting the rights of Americans.
Reason #4: This time, he is interested in something just as disturbing: a national ID card or some variation thereof.
I started this "Why I don't like (Senator John) McCain" list in response to several people from out of state, especially, why Senator McCain is so bad. At the time, I never had concrete evidence and they were able to lambast me with the response that he wants to "cut pork." Well, he might and has done a satisfactory job trying to do that in the past; and yes, he is a veteran. But when this man proposes or supports certain legislation, actions, or the like from the government, he is a serious threat.

Committee Chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., who said he would file bills to implement the commission's recommendations, indicated he was interested in a national ID card.
