McCain must own massive amounts of weapon company stocks.
In that photo, H! has not colored her hair in months, yet she appears on camera, and with the glasses, no contacts and some awful yellow foundation misplaced on her ashen face.
She probably put that hearing off as long as possible and wasn’t allowed to put it off any longer, or she’d have waited until it was ok to groom, which it was not, for what ever reason.
McCain is just weird, too weird to hold such a high position.
For the RNC to run him is reason enough for 3,000,000 conservatives to lose all trust in them.
NO more.
Quite agreed.
India would be a great ally too if we could trust them.
Interesting idea. I’ve thought similarly for a long time now.
Clinton and then Bush leaned on Viet Nam consistently to improve. The Vietnamese government was intent on pleasing the Americans because of fear of China and because most of the communists there have always been ambivalent about America. Since the Clinton opening they would do just about anything to please the Americans short of putting themselves out of jobs. Then the Emir came along in America. This president despises people and countries who look up to America and want to be allied with it. The pressure on rights has ceased and old habits are reasserted but not so effectively now. The commies- more like mafia now- remember that when they tried to impose actual Communism on the country they themselves faced starvation. They turned around and the country turned around. There is more walking around freedom in Viet Nam now than there is here. Even their mistreatment of the Minorities has abated considerably. They don’t have SWAT teams making random attacks on citizens. There are some political arrests but there is also active opposition to those. The Church and the pagodas are strong enough and confident enough to actively oppose government intrusions and to support rights.
And let’s not forget it was actually Vietnam that moved into Cambodia and deposed Pol Pot.
Viet Nam has been trying hard to be “in our corner” for a couple of decades. Obama disdains them especially for that fact.

They are an odd but rather welcoming people, but there is a dark under current in their society.
I have seen Vietnamese kick the **** out of black gangtas.
No. Probably not. There are precious few believing Communists there now. The government resembles more a Latin American junta of a couple of generations ago, except they are much more open to market freedom. The hampering of business is mostly due to petty corruption rather than to systemic opposition. And a government representative is required to be on the Board of any foreign company setting up in Viet Nam. Government men don’t have the same motivations as do businessmen and that makes for inefficiency and some misdirection.
Pure evil.
Dead Kennedy's~Holiday in Cambodia
Okay, I’m down with that, only if they allow sales of Garands(from Korea) and Saiga.
I have zero idea of the facts behind this one. Also, McCain is typically an idiot. That being said, we eventually became trading partners AND allies with Germany, japan, Italy, etc.
I just don’t know.
I have many Viet friends that were part of the resistance.
Very family oriented and captitalistic.
In part. We should offer to sell any weapons to VN that we would sell to an ally. They and the Fleet are our first line against China. They tried for 15 years to entice us back to Cam Ranh which is the most strategic port and best harbor in SEA.
Have Saiga sales been blocked?
Pol Pot’s spirit is alive and well in ISIS.
Indeed, and the world is blind to it.
Pure evil.
