Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said this week that President Obama never made a sincere effort to reach out to him after the 2008 election
.
.
He said he expressed eagerness to work with the president on immigration reform and the line-item veto, but has been left out in the cold.

McCain, the ranking Republican on the Armed Services Committee, also said Obama failed to consult with him on national-security issues.

“He never asked for advice on national-security nominees,” McCain said.
.
.
McCain pointed out that Obama invited him to the White House in 2009 to discuss immigration reform.

“I said, ‘I’d love to join you,’ and never heard from him,” McCain said.

4 years later and he.....still....doesn't....get it.

Sen. John McCain used a TV appearance Friday to take out after the U.S. Supreme Court’s controversial 2010 Citizens United ruling, which removed all limits from campaign spending. McCain criticized a $10 million donation to Mitt Romney’s “SuperPAC.”

[KarlInOhio]

I have neither enough faces nor enough palms to express my feelings on McCain.

[tsowellfan]

line-item veto? with Obama in office?

The last I heard republicans only talk about line-item vetoes when there is a republican in the White House and never mention it when there is a democrat living there.

Oops... I forgot. We’re talking about McCain

[PGR88]

Even after 4 years, McCain still doesn’t understand the guy he ran against. What a doofus.

[Loyal Sedition]

Well Johnny, U B White!

STFU Crackah.

What did he expect from the “Post-racial president”?
McCain is not quite leftist enough for this regime.

[ColdOne]

good grief John, bammy has been laughing at you since 08.

[GrandmaPatriot]

Where’s that picture of the crying baby used for the dem party? McCain’s crying face should be on it.

[JohnD9207]

Lets just pray that mittens has ignored him as well, however by the way Mitt is tossing softballs the Maverick may have all ready got to him.

[forgotten man]

That is the first good thing that 0bama has ever done.

[fatnotlazy]

This is why I won't vote for Romney. I knew McCain was a lousy candidate, but I voted for him anyway. Four years later and we have yet another lousy choice. Enough is enough. Obama will probably con and cheat his way to re-election anyway. We will endure the dictatorship and resist where we can. I just hope that when the republic eventually is restored, we will have ridden ourselves of both corrupt parties.

Obama snubbed McCain? Shocking after all Obama is such a nice man at least that is what McCain said to constituent who was trying to warn John about Obama. John McCain is a sucker!

[molson209]

OK ,John , send Obama a bag of questions , that should scare the H E 2 sticks out of him

[Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)]

Can I Stop crying now?...from laughing?...at Panama Juan?

[TangoLimaSierra]

I guess Mac is thinking maybe he should have actually tried to get elected. Go away, dufus.

[tx_eggman]

Johnnie, Johnnie, Johnnie .... you knew he was a snake when you picked him up.

[a fool in paradise]

I thought Obama said he was a uniter, not a divider.

Then he became “Office Of The President Elect ‘I won get over it aka Kiss my butt’”.

Obama snubbed me, says McCain

Juan McVain almost sounds like he is about to throw a temper tantrum. From a man who spent over 5 years in the Hanoi Hilton, this comment is not only embarrassing but painfully ludicrous!

[ExTxMarine]

good grief John, bammy has been laughing at you since 08.

Most of us, those who live outside Arizona, have been laughing at John for longer than that!

This man is lost and drifting with no moors of principles or common sense! The Republicans would be best served if they cut the ties and let him go ahead and completely sail over to the Democrats!

[ryderann]

I, too, would snub McCain.

Were I President, I'd snub McCain, too.

All he's ever done for the conservative agenda is gotten in the way.

[Jim Scott]

McCain sucked up to Obama and Obama kicked him in the teeth. This is Obama's pattern. He is never, ever 'grateful' to any Republican for anything. In fact, Obama is rarely very grateful even to his liberal supporters. McCain's ego is bruised. Too bad, he helped give us Obama. GOP presidential candidate John McCain famously said (3 weeks before the '08 election) "we have nothing to fear with Barack Obama in the White House", inferring that if we did fear the Marxist America-hater, we were, all together now: 'racists!' McCain can go cry on his pillow. I'm not interested in his whining.

[Fresh Wind]

But Johnnie was so nice to Barry, why wouldn’t Barry play with him?

Waaaahhhhhh!

[null and void]

Boo frickin’ hoo.

If you’d actually, oh I dunno, RUN AGAINST HIM, you could be snubbing him in a much saner, safer and less divided America.

Cry me a river.

[THE_RAIDER]

Is Mclame that much of a simpleton? Now we know where his airhead daughter gets her brains.

[THE_RAIDER]

Agree 100% my feelings exactly.

Don't use his middle name Mclame!!!

[dennisw]

This is so pathetic. Why even admit it so that you look like a sap, an idiot.....Which you were John McCaine. Your moments of lucidity are few and far between

[Salvey]

The fool doesn’t realize that that’s what you get when you “reach over” and “reach across the aisle.”

[jesseam]

McCain is a bona fide war hero but that is where my respect ends. OIF vet

[353FMG]

Hey McCain, you performed your service to Obama in 2008.

Go home, he doesn’t need you any longer.

Senator, the mere fact that you expected one proves beyond ALL DOUBT that you are a FOOL and reaffirms my own foolhardiness in voting for you.......(sigh)

[SoFloFreeper]

Oh, boo effing HOO, John McStupid.

You have no one to blame but yourself for trusting the worst Occupier of the Oval Office in your lifetime.

I love the cartoon there, kev...it fits SO well.

[zerosix]

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, so sorry Juan.

Maybe Obama thinks that Juan would want to be in the photo for the op, or something like that!

Shows what a jerk McCain is or idiot as well - he actually thought that Obama was serious about "working together" about wanting t"o do the best for the American people," "reach across the aisle" and all that.

[null and void]

The fool doesn’t realize that that’s what you get when you “reach over” and “reach across the aisle.”

I think maybe he was hoping for a "reach around"...

[sand88]

That is the first good thing that 0bama has ever done.

I agree. McLame didn't even try to win in 08. He deserves to be snubbed.

[tumblindice]

Jimmy crack corn and we don't care, Juan. Go away. And take your daughter.

[x]

Well, he’s not alone in that. It’s what the Eisenhowers and other Obamacons or Obamacans expected.

[Repeat Offender]

McCain’t thought that just because he womanized, couldn’t fly a plane, and embraced socialism that he’d be treated like a Kennedy by the rats.

[5thGenTexan]

By trying to be “moderate”, McCain has made himself lukewarm, neither hot nor cold. And, like in the parable, despised by both sides...

Well, Boo Hoo to You McCain. Next time fight to win and you may get more respect. Oops, sorry, I forgot that there isn't going to be any next time.

[txhurl]

Well, Mr. $50 lettuce, the name of the game is ‘believe your own bullshit at your own peril.’

JD would have won if only McPain’s term was up this year instead of ‘10.

[Grams A]

I’m sure he also doesn’t understand that if he had not had Sarah running as his VP a whole lot of other people would also have ignored him. Just another pathetic Republican who is totally full of himself.

[subterfuge]

Hey McCain. HE won.

Have you been sitting by the phone for the last 3 + years?

Man what a dufus!

[Iron Munro]

You're making it difficult, John.

[Joe Boucher]

McCain sits around and drools all day in his anger.
Rino fool should pack it in and play shuffle board and fill his depends.

[sheana]

That’s because they are all in the same club.

[freedomlover]

[karnage]

The positive value in McCain saying this now is that recent efforts by Obama have been to paint Republicans as unwilling to talk to him about getting together to solve the nation’s problems.

McCain is a prominent elected Republican. He’s saying the gridlock is not his fault - Obama is the problem.

[null and void]

You're making it difficult hard, John.

There.

Fixed.
