RINO Senator, John McCain has once again turned his back on US military veterans, choosing instead to fund visas for Afghani interpreters and their relatives, while imposing higher health care costs on our soldiers.
The legislation, given full support by McCain and proposed by New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D) will up the amount of Afghan Special Immigrant Visas for those who have helped the U.S. soldiers as translators and interpreters. With this amendment, the number grows from 7,000 to 11,000 and the spouse and children of the visa holder may also enter the United States.
Where will the funds come from to make these new visas possible? Congress has decided to hurt the veterans by cutting their health care benefits and increasing their co-pay for the pharmacy, while using the funds saved to make the visa program larger.
This is more of the same from McCain, the vet who should be ashamed of his pilfering toward his fellow military man or woman. There were recently nine Republicans who sided with the Democrats to sell out the vets, sadly McCain was one of them.
We expect the Democrats to sell America out. It’s news when one or a handful actually vote in the interest of the American people and in a manner consistent with the Constitution and the very survival of our nation.
It’s also newsworthy to report on Republicans who join the Democrats in their sellout.
In the debate over cuts to the budget and who would be affected, the Democrats naturally targeted America’s military. They recognize and largely oppose the anti-American behavior coming out of the Democrat Senate and White House. They are not the constituency of the Democrats, at least not as far as the Dems seem to think.

McCain was a turncoat as a POW and has never changed. It is a disgusting character flaw & is the heart of who he truly is.
If you need money moor this cut the money from Government perks. Starr with Congress. Former Presidents should only get Secret Service protection for one year after leaving office. Provide for your own protection. Should not be at tax payer expense. The Veterans deserve at lot more than they are getting
You need to go to jail
He is jealous of real military men!! He was a coward and was called the song bird because he told the enemy everything he knew!! Get lost McCain!!
vote him out
Have been saying it all along. Don’t trust this person and now look at what he is doing to the vets.
Disgusting!
This man McCain, is not a Republican! He is a lying left wing liberal and a traitor to boot! We definitely need term limits!
This rino has NEVER stood up for vets. I hope Az is happy with this idiot. They keep voting him in. Even tho he’s a traitor. HE gave up his fellow prisoners and navy secrets for better treatment in the Hanoi Hilton. HE almost sank his own carrier when he released a bomb on deck.
And now he attacks his own party.
You deal with him Arizona. Or we will.
Lock him up, right with Hillary! Cell mates!
