Time For John McCain to Retire
The American Thinker ^ | 04/11/17 | J. Marsolo

Posted on 04/11/2017 5:59:12 AM PDT by pgkdan

...Since then, his career as a Republican senator has been undistinguished, to be charitable. He calls himself a "maverick," primarily because he opposes his own Republican Party. For example, he voted against the 2001 Bush tax cuts, probably because Bush beat him in the 2000 primaries.

His major legislation, McCain-Feingold, intended to restrict political contributions by corporations and others, was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. The Dems complain about this in every election because they do not want businesses to contribute to Republicans.

Lately, McCain seems more unhinged than usual.

First, on Sunday, April 9, he blamed the Trump administration "partially" for the chemical attack on civilians by Assad in Syria because the administration sent "mixed" signals to Assad. This is preposterous.

At a minimum the federal government really needs to pull his black passport so he doesn’t keep traveling around inciting WW 3

He just got reelected. Chances of resignation are not high.

Time for McCain to be retired before he goads us in to another war.

They started calling him “maverick” after the Top Gun movie came out, didn’t they? This smarmy little pissant probably was so thrilled and flattered thinking he was actualy brave and talented fighter pilot.

But We know the truth “wet start”. You got people killed and nearly sunk a carrier. How you are not in jail I will never understand.

Retire??? B.S.!!! This ‘TRAITOR’ needs to be hung in the ‘Town Square’ with a whole lot of other people that tried to bring America to ruins...

What give this ‘TRAITOR’ the right to meet with Bagdaddie, and to help arm Syria, Libya, Saudi Arabia and other countries...he is not anything but an elected SENATOR from the Insane State of Arizona???

He has no more rights than you or I do...and you don't see any of us going to ‘TERRORISTS’ countries do you???

Prison is to darn good for the likes of these people, hanging is the only way to deal with these types of people...

“Hang them high and hang them until the crows pick the flesh from their bones”...

If you have any questions on why I'm this determined, please read the following article, it's long, but it answers the questions that we all have been asking for years:

There’s always the chance for something a little more permanent given his age...

We can complain, but it is McCain and Graham that keep the Senate out of the hands of Leftists who want to populate the Supreme Court with Leftist radicals.

A lot of people don’t like Donald J. Trump because he is crass, out spoken and says what he thinks and does what he says...there are a few of us out here in America that are the same way...

If John McCain showed up at my door, I can tell you IF he walked away, he would have a person on each side to help him...

There are places in the Bible that says we are to love one another, but there are places in there that also say, ONLY IF THEY DESERVE IT!!!

After he blew the 2008 election, then he should have been tossed.

But he’s a vet and POW, so the brains of GOP voters turn right off.

Time For John McCain to Retire

Time For John McCain to RETIRE???!?

No, it's time for him to be arrested as an ISIS-aligned domestic terrorist, thrown in GITMO for daily waterboarding, then time for slow cutting off of every finger, toe, and genitals without anesthesia, then forced drinking of lye and capsicum, followed by hanging, drawing, and quartering, capped off with ISIS members serially raping his corpse.

And even then, we wouldn't be even.

Time for that butt hole to die. He is a traitor that has escaped execution for far too long. I used to like that prick up until the time he returned after Vietnam and we found out who that traitorous bastard really is. Sealed military records, indeed!

Damn, I need my morning coffee!

Usually those who have been in McLame’s place are opposed to senseless wars and military interventions but yet the old geezer never seems to be able to pass us an opportunity to send our troops into harm’s way. Maybe if he had been a foot soldier instead of a pathetic flyboy, he might feel differently.
