Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Friday offered a preemptive defense of President Obama's nominee to head European affairs at the State Department amid concerns about her role in the Benghazi talking points.

Other vocal critics of the administration's response to last year's terrorist attack – notably Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and James Inhofe (R-Okla.) – may yet decide to block her long-expected nomination.

Most of us here had McCain’s number over a decade ago.

McCain and Goober beat their Rat senate friends in endorsing this hack.
I can only hope the few conservatives bloody her up really good before
she is confirmed.

It’s getting really unclear.

You know, I’m trying real hard not to cuss or say bad things anymore. Yep, I’m trying.... trying....

But...

McCain and Graham, back in the same saddle again.... I wish they’d ride each other off into the sunset.

Is there no voice to tell these two sons of bitches to shut up?

They seem to be free to “speak for” the Republiccns in a “spirit if bipartisanship”, almost every time push comes to shove.

They were a fly in W’s ointment - fought everything he wanted to do, and now they lead the blocking for O every dang time.

Come-on Mitch! Tell them to STFU!

Come on So Carolina. Vote the weasel out

The enemy within.

Two poster Boys for mandatory term limits.

McCain and Graham are glaring examples of why there should be a limit on how many years these political parasites can spend sucking on the government teat - not just as a senator or congressman, but in every capacity.

Elective office and appointed government jobs should not be a lifelong career.
They need to get their heads out of the clouds and get back to the real world after a short period of service.

“Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.)”

Joined at the groin; no discernible brains between them.

McCain rides in for the rescue once again.

Reaching across the isle is his life’s ambition.

The Left has had John’s number for decades.

They say there is not such thing as a perpetual motion machine,
but when it comes to McCain selling us out, he never runs out of energy.

McCain is one tough nut to crack. Unfortunately the Left craked,
him decades ago.

I know McCain has been a backstabbing traitor when he could get away with it for at least 37 years, and have cut him some slack due to his “PTSD”....

But on top of going insane the last few years, I am starting to think he may have even joined the Muslim Brotherhood.

It will take Providence.

The voters keep sending the same old codgers back — because those old ones know how to get the pork.

McCain’s hatred of Bush made him the darling of the media. He’s a whore that is used by the other side and nothing has changed.
