Did McCain

Senator McCain used to say he listened to the top military brass about Don't Ask Don't Tell. He said that more than once and said he would listen when the top military brass came to him and said DADT should be overturned. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, did that today. McCain changed his mind. His reaction to Mullen and Bob Gates, the Defense Secretary, telling the Senate Armed Services Committee that DADT is not effective was the opposite of the pos ...

Between Huckabee's remarks and this, looks like the GOP and Priebus have an uphill battle if their goal is softening their message to appeal to all Americans. Looks like the extremist right wing is having no part of it. ...

I think he should shuffle on over to the 3rd chamber of Congress and ask NRA Chairman Wayne LaPierre. Between them, maybe they can figure out how to fight ebola with those assault weapons they hug so tightly. The GOP is convinced LaPierre is imminently more qualified to choose a Surgeon General than the following organizations, just to name a few: The AIDS Institute AIDS United Alaska Public Health Association American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy American College of Clinical Pha ...

President Barack Obama battled with Senate Republicans in a tense closed-door meeting Tuesday, facing tough criticism from his GOP adversaries — including John McCain — on issues ranging from health care to border security. Senators and other sources inside the meeting described the gathering as “testy” and “direct” — and Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) accused Obama of acting two-faced by asking for GOP support on regulatory reform only to push for ...

Trump, who has been in a war of words with the 2008 Republican nominee, jibed of McCain: “He’s not a war hero. He’s a war hero because he was captured? I like people who weren’t captured.” You know it is bad when --- The former Texas governor Rick Perry said the remarks represented “a new low in American politics” and demanded that Trump “immediately withdraw from the race for president.” http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/donald-trump-attack-on-john-mccain-w ...

(CNN) – Real estate mogul Donald Trump is endorsing Sen. John McCain: “I’ve known him. I like him. I respect him. He’s a smart guy and I think he’s going to be a great president,” Trump said Wednesday night on CNN’s Larry King Live. “I endorse him.” Watch: Trump backs McCain Trump also had praise for McCain’s decision to pick Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate. “I think she’s made a tremendous impact. The impact that she has had on rejuvenating almost the R ...

My Friend, Yesterday, President Obama signed his massive government takeover of our health care system into law. This bill is terribly wrong for America and I call on you to join with me to challenge this bill in every way we can. The fact remains that by a two-to-one margin, Americans do not want this bill to become law. On Saturday, I held town hall meetings in Arizona and we could not find one person who liked this bill. It's shameful that the Obama Administration and Congressio ...

She is such a waste of grossly tanned skin. And why, oh, why, would John McCain even take the time to respond to such a nitwit? ...

McCain quoted heavily from a Wall Street Journal editorial that slammed Paul’s filibuster on the Obama Administration’s drone use, including a line that said “If Mr. Paul wants to be taken seriously, he needs to do more than pull political stunts that fire up impressionable libertarian kids in college dorms.” McCain called Paul’s concern that the government could kill any American with a drone “totally unfounded.” Graham also chided his fellow Re ...

Using GOP logic as applied to Obama's similar statements last week defending Egyptian democratic process, not specific party "sides," this must mean McCain "supports" the Muslim Brotherhood. http://www.usatoday.com/story/theoval/2013/07/07/obama-egypt-national-security-council/2496279/ http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/07/06/mccain-after-thinking-long-and-hard-us-should-suspend-aid-to-egypt/ http://www.aljazeera.com/news/americas/2013/07/2013766819603784.html ...

From the Washington Post: "Republican opposition to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice as the next secretary of state began to crack Sunday as Sen. John McCain said she was “not the problem” in the White House’s handling of the Sept. 11 attack in Libya and suggested he could be persuaded to swing behind her possible nomination." “I think she deserves the ability and the opportunity to explain herself and her position,” McCain, R-Ariz., told “Fox News Sunday.” ...

By Stephen C. WebsterSunday, January 10th, 2010 -- 11:04 pm It's a perfect storm for former lawmaker Sarah Palin. A book due out this week by political journalists John Heilemann and Mark Halperin has all the right politicos sweating and backpedaling, from John McCain to the Senate majority leader, and even Bill and Hillary Clinton. But in "Game Change", it's Palin who really takes it on the nose. According to an advance copy thoroughly dog-ear'd by The New York Times, some Mc ...

By Ron BrynaertTuesday, May 4th, 2010 -- 12:07 pm It took many years for Senator John McCain to lose his unofficial RINO (conservative acronym for 'Republican In Name Only') status. And even though the Arizona senator has done his best to mollify conservatives that he backs a controversial new law which critics say will lead to racial profiling of Latinos, Republicans related to him in family and politics are taking the opposite point of view. At Bloomberg News, Keven Hassett, an eco ...

To add insult to injury, McC thinks President Obama's remarks were "impressive" and that he "very appropriately" highlighed his experiences as an African-American male relative to the Trayvon Martin case. He also voiced his support for Affirmative Action programs and, contrary to Ted Cruz's view, sees "no connection" between SYG laws and gun control. http://crooksandliars.com/ http://www.politico.com/blogs/politico-live/2013/07/mccain-review-stand-your-ground-law ...

WASHINGTON, April 14, 2010 Arizona Senator Says U.S. Has Been Backing Away from Iran Conflict; Warns Tehran Will Get Nukes without Bolder Action (CBS/ AP) Senator John McCain said the United States has been backing away from a brewing fight with Iran, while that country moves ever closer to having nuclear weapons.

By Sahil KapurMonday, April 5th, 2010 -- 1:30 pm As a presidential candidate, distancing himself from his party was the politically astute move. But now that he's facing a daunting primary challenge from the right, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) is working to shed a label he once vigorously embraced. "I never considered myself a maverick," he told Newsweek's David Margolick in interview to be published in next week's issue. "I consider myself a person who serves the people of Arizona t ...
