Veterans Attempt to Arrest McCain for Treason

The demonstrators calling for the Senator McCain’s arrest are accusing him of supporting the Islamic State terror group and hiding evidence of the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty.

Of course Sen. McCain takes issue with this characterization, preferring to cast himself as a champion of veterans issues. Recently, he has heavily inserted himself into the investigations of the extreme failings of Veterans Affairs hospitals. Many perceive these recent actions as simple political theater, meant to save face after failing the veterans by not being a steward of their cause until the VA hospital scandal became a PR nightmare.

The protest seemingly struck a nerve with the McCain camp, as Brian Rogers, a McCain spokesman, released a statement Saturday afternoon. In the statement, they attempted to divert from the issues being raised by personally attacking the organizer and trying to label him a conspiracy theorist:

“The individual leading this ‘protest,’ Pete Santilli, is a conspiracy theorist who believes that high-tech energy beams from outer space took down the Twin Towers on 9/11 and that President George H.W. Bush helped orchestrate the Kennedy assassination, among many other bizarre theories.”

While McCain’s spokesman was quick to take charge, there was a distinct lack of denial in his speech. These demonstrators don’t only feel this way about McCain, but also about a several other U.S. senators. They believe that they spend too many years in office and no longer care about representing the people. They could be right.
