Doug Bandow March 21, 2017 TweetShareShare Printer-friendly version Sen. John McCain has the reputation of a foreign-policy maven. He pays attention to little other than foreign affairs. When he ran for president in the midst of the 2008 financial crisis, he admitted that he didn’t know much about economics, which helped doom his candidacy. Unfortunately, he shows no greater sophistication when it comes to his favorite topic.
Nor does he brook disagreement, even if well founded. In his view, those who disagree with him are little better than traitors. Especially Americans who believe that Senator McCain’s most important duty is to protect this nation.
In fact, he has routinely advocated what amounts to sacrificing U.S. interests while pushing confrontation and sometimes war with a long list of countries around the globe: Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran, North Korea and, worst of all, Russia. There is scarcely a conflict he doesn’t want the United States to plunge into. And rarely a military deployment he does not want to make permanent. Whatever the international issue, he sees U.S. military action as the answer.

YES!
Yep, about 25 years ago.
He never had a prime. He was a disaster as a midshipman, as a pilot and has been a disaster as a Senator.
YES 20 YEARS PAST HIS PRIME!!!!
Yes.
WAY!
This is truly the question of our generation. The 1960s generation...
Listing all his “accomplishments” shows that John McPain has lived a prime time disaster of a life.
Arizona seems to think every vote for him is a personal shot at the Viet Cong in the name of all POWs, or something.
Those people wont consider voting for anyone else until that bastard croaks.
Trashing a POTUS while on foreign soil.... he’s been doing it since the Hanoi Hilton. Benedict Arnold was a war hero too.
YES!! Way, WAY beyond!!
John McCain was past his prime the day he graduated from the Naval Academy.
He started out at bottom of class and went downhill from there.
30 years ago.
Is McCain Beyond His Prime?
Is there tea in China?
Of course. He’s been beyond his prime for over 30 years.
Long beyond.
Are you kidding me..? His rotting corpse is stinking all of DC... That schmuck needs to get out of town as soon as possible....
Has been for decades.
