I have to wonder about John McCain, the Democrat…I mean, Republican…senator from Arizona and his penchant for sticking both feet in his mouth simultaneously. I wonder if he sits at home on his expensive sofa, in one of his expensive homes, staring down at his expensive dogs and shaking his head sadly about why America just doesn’t like him. He has done literally everything that the Left has asked him to do. He has bad-mouthed Republicans, trash-talked Trump, put down Sarah Palin as the reason he lost the election, and he has worked tirelessly on behalf of all Democrats to ensure that the debt keeps piling up as high as the stratosphere and beyond.
What more could he possibly do to command the love and respect of the masses? At this point, the only real way he could make a demonstrative dent in his terrible reputation would be to jump party affiliations. That, at least, would stop the hemorrhaging of his Leftist and RINO supporters.
But Johnny won’t do that. He’ll continue to languish on the sidelines like Rudy, hoping against hope that everybody will eventually forget that he’s a completely ineffectual leader and (like Boehner) will finally, mercifully get the picture and retire. I don’t believe that will be anytime soon.
Instead, let’s take a quick stroll down memory lane to look at some of the most interesting aspects of his political career. But not the ones that defined him as a maverick…back when the Progressive mainstream media absolutely adored him because he always seemed to rub Republican constituents the wrong way. And not the way he was seemed to speak softly and carry a big feather (just in case things got out of hand).
I’d like to talk about the reasons why John McCain simply viewed Barack Obama as a much more viable, strong, and attractive candidate than he himself was. What? You didn’t know?
When John McCain was attempting to take the most important job on the planet, he refused to “go negative” and try to pull out an unlikely win. “Going negative” is Liberal code-speak for telling the truth. Every time his handlers told McCain to remind everyone of Obama’s many shortcomings (and there were oodles of them) he invariably fell back on, “Well, we’re just gonna remain civil around here. No need to go all crazy like and call people unnecessary derogatory names that really aren’t true.”
My contention is that McCain actually viewed Obama as the preferred candidate, with himself as the alternative! Read more on this new revelation…
And Barry Goldwater was a hell of a lot better Arizona Republican than John McCain.
Song bird McCain has his head up his ass
I think his tumor is messing with his brain

What Really Happened When He Was a POW? – CounterPunch 6/13/08
EXCERPTS: “on March 25, 1999, two of his fellow POWs, Ted Guy and Gordon “Swede” Larson told the Phoenix New Times that, while they could not guarantee that McCain was not physically harmed, they doubted it. As Larson said, “My only contention with the McCain deal is that while he was at The Plantation, to the best of my knowledge and Ted’s knowledge, he was not physically abused in any way. No one was in that camp. It was the camp that people were released from.”Guy and Larson’s claims are given credence by McCain’s vehement opposition to releasing the government’s debriefings of Vietnam War POWs. McCain gave Michael Isikoff a peek at his debriefs, and Isikoff declared there was “nothing incriminating” in them, apart from the redactions.
McCain had a unique POW experience. Initially, he was taken to the infamous Hanoi Hilton prison camp, where he was interrogated. By McCain’s own account, after three or four days, he cracked. He promised his Vietnamese captors, “I’ll give you military information if you will take me to the hospital.”His Vietnamese capturers soon realized their POW, John Sidney McCain III, came from a well-bred line of American military elites. McCain’s father, John Jr., and grandfather, John Sr., were both full Admirals. A destroyer, the USS John S. McCain, is named after both of them. While his son was held captive in Hanoi, John McCain Jr., from 1968 to 1972, was the Commander-in-Chief of U.S. Pacific Command; Admiral McCain was in charge of all US forces in the Pacific including those fighting in Vietnam. ..The Admiral’s bad boy was used to special treatment and his captors knew that. They were working him.For his part, McCain acknowledges that the Vietnamese rushed him to a hospital, but denies he was given any “special medical treatment.” However….two weeks into his stay at the Vietnamese hospital, the Hanoi press began quoting him. It was not “name rank and serial number, or kill me,” as specified by the military code of conduct. McCain divulged specific military information: he gave the name of the aircraft carrier on which he was based, the number of US pilots that had been lost, the number of aircraft in his flight formation, as well as information about the location of rescue ships…
On the other hand, according to one source, McCain’s collaboration may have had very real consequences. Retired Army Colonel Earl Hopper, a veteran of World War II, Korea and Vietnam, contends that the information that McCain divulged classified information North Vietnam used to hone their air defense system…McCain told his North Vietnamese captors, “highly classified information, the most important of which was the package routes, which were routes used to bomb North Vietnam. He gave in detail the altitude they were flying, the direction, if they made a turn… he gave them what primary targets the United States was interested in.” Hopper contends that the information McCain provided allowed the North Vietnamese to adjust their air-defenses. As result, Hopper claims, the US lost sixty percent more aircraft and in 1968, “called off the bombing of North Vietnam, because of the information McCain had given to them.” This$#%&!@*is no HERO ! He is a TRAITOR !!
