Arizona Rep. Martha McSally (R-AZ), a retired Air Force colonel running for the Senate, responded to Democrat opponent Rep. Kyrsten Sinema’s recently unearthed remarks that it was OK for Americans to go and fight for the Taliban against U.S. troops.
“I was actually deployed on 9/11 to Saudi Arabia. We ramped up to go fight the Taliban, who was harboring Osama bin Laden and the terrorists who killed Americans in the Twin Towers and the Pentagon,” McSally said on Fox and Friends on Saturday.
“I was over there flying and commanding an A-10 squadron just a year later and we had the Taliban trying to take out our troops, and she’s says it’s OK for Americans to go and fight against us? This is unbelievable and disqualifying,” McSally said.
Sinema said in 2003 that she did not care if Americans fought with the Taliban against U.S. troops.
In a February, 2003 radio show interview, then-Green Party activist host Earnest Hancock told Sinema, “As an individual, if I want to go fight in the Taliban army, I go over there, and I’m fighting for the Taliban, I’m saying that’s a personal decision.”
Sinema responded, “Fine. I don’t care if you go and do that, go ahead.”
Two months after that interview, Sinema told the Arizona Republic that “we should feel compassion” for enemy combatants killed in Iraq, according to the Free Beacon.
McSally also pointed out the inherent contradiction in Sinema claiming to be a feminist but supporting Americans fighting for the Taliban — who oppress women and stone them to death.

How could she honestly take the oath of office with that in her head and on her lips?
” Rep. Kyrsten Sinema’s recently unearthed remarks that it was OK for Americans to go and fight for the Taliban against U.S. troops. “
No, it is NOT OK for Americans to join the enemy and fight against the US.
She must NOT be elected.
I hope people will find this out and will not vote for her.
It seems that oaths mean nothing to some people. There is little consequence to lying when taking an oath as an elected official. Look at all the officials that swear an oath to uphold the constitution and then spend every waking moment to tear it down.
Sinema responded, “Fine. I don’t care if you go and do that, go ahead.”
And now this treasonous nut job is running for the United States Senate?!
Arizona Rep. Martha McSally (R-AZ), a retired Air Force colonel...
An actual Colonel. The kind that understanding the military and can answer basic questions correctly.
Huh.
Everywhere I look around here McSally campaign signs have “disappeared” over the weekend. What a coincidence that sinema signs are now everywhere.
Sinema signs no doubt “printed by” some subsidiary of the American Communist Party, or one funded by George Soros.
Yeah, I’m seeing a lot of petty sign vandalism against David Schweikert, (R - 6) too.
Sinema is toast.
