John McCain, liberal tool and too stupid to realize it.

John McCain, went from being respected to being nothing but a tool for the liberal-socialists.

Sad part is he's too stupid to realize it.

John McCain & Jeff Flake the Arizona "Moron" twins.





McCain defends giving dossier to Comey: 'I would do it again'

By Brett Samuels - 05/09/18 06:05 PM EDT

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) wrote in his upcoming memoir that he does not regret alerting the FBI about the so-called Steele dossier, which details President Trump’s alleged ties to Russia.
McCain acknowledged in January 2017 that he delivered a dossier of “sensitive information” to then-FBI Director James Comey.
In his upcoming book, "The Restless Wave: Good Times, Just Causes, Great Fights, and Other Appreciations," McCain wrote that he "did what duty demanded I do" in passing on the documents.

“I discharged that obligation, and I would do it again. Anyone who doesn’t like it can go to hell,” McCain said, according to excerpts of the book published by The Guardian.

McCain outlived his usefulness years ago; however, he has become an institution unto himself and has made a living out of his politics. He still thinks he is smarter than us peons and continues to tell us so.

I about gagged when he proclaimed choosing Sarah Palin was a mistake, I pulled the lever more for her the year he ran for POTUS than for him. The left only adores him when he is in his "Outlaw" republican hating mode. He is a confused individual.

I read every Vietnam POW book I could get my hand on and have found some mixed attitudes towards the privileged McCain.....what I really started having an issue with him was the 80's when POW's had spoken out about leaving men behind in 1973 and then the Bobby Garwood debacle in which he returned in 78-79? years after the POTUS announced all American POW's were home and he told the stories of American that were still their after the withdrawal and the Laotian, Vietnamese and Cambodians boat people who were coming to the U.S. said the same thing. I worked with a Laotian who was working in the meat packing plants with me in the mid 80's in Ks told me about how he learned English from American Green Berets and French from the French and was a member of a bomber crew who had been left behind in Vietnam after the fall of Saigon in 75 said the same thing that he was put into prison where Americans were in the same prison....I may have some of the details a little mixed up but that was the gist....It was McCain's holier than thou and abusive conduct towards the families that put a bad taste in my mouth.

I think you are right. people should stop bashing him and respect him for having the courage to shamelessly espouse leftist politics in spite of what people say about him.

This. I don't care what "party" he feels an affinity to - hell, we have states reps around here who only run with a given party because they'd never get elected otherwise, so they do the dance, nothing new.

But he could just walk out on the ice & it'd be fine by me.

Out of McCain, Flake, and She-whose-name-shall-not-be-spoken in the A-10 community, Flake has the higher conservative rating on Conservative Review. And it's still an F.

Warrior Diplomat, I imagine if we knew the truth and details it would be horrendous! John/ Keating and the Savings and Loan Debacle were on my radar as I exited School with Student Loan Debt as they were all held to 0 account and have been amazed that he went anywhere after that!

Pat, it occurs to me many politicians have mimicked the behavior. Obviously the press play an enabling role and have dismissed their charge of balanced and objective reporting resulting as a balanced check...with a loss of credibility to say the least but I think we all know that...even the liberals.

It takes a real patriot to become a courier and hand deliver to the FBI a Dirty Dossier about an opponent he lost to

Gets called a liberal, and a Democrat.

Lmao baby's first politics right here. How new are you to American politics? Narrative and agenda is just as important if not more than policy votes. And guess which side of the isle Mcain's narrative is on, *hint* the answer is in this very thread. And if you need another clue, look at McCain calling Rand Paul a Russian Spy.
https://youtu.be/pq3YdA4Mb84

Hmmmm I wonder which political party screams "Muh Russia" and wants to delegitmize this Presidency....

Also, you think toeing the Trump line with some votes immediately discredits someone from being a leftist??? Some votes are more significant than others. Like completely repealing Obama care for example, which that dip shit voted no on.
