Not that Kissinger is guilty of anything, but aren’t these Fabulous Commies about 40 years late on this?

I have my issues with McCain, but this was great. And, a great ringtone on a phone that has individual ringtones. Ideal for someone that one does not want to talk to.

I agree with McCain’s actions as his right to free speech, he didn’t actually assault them, and yes, they are scum with little to no personal decorum on the matter.

Me too.

And the Proglodytes clearly don’t see the irony in going after Kissinger when Pol Pot, Khmer Rouge and the others killed many more people than Kissinger is alleged to be resonsible for.

They need to scapegoat someone for how the world is now, because they need someone other than the current liberal politicians to lay the blame on right now.

Of course not.

Professional protestors have no real life.

The Chinese Communists committed perhaps the largest mass killing of the 20th century 40 to 60 million from what I have heard. Some Chinese chose to simply slit their wrists under the table or hang themselves from the door frame during that episode as well.

If Obama were a Republican they'd be calling him an Uncle Tom and calling for his lynching and MSNBC would have Kissinger on to get his ring kissed.

Not just ‘many more people’. Many orders of magnitude more people.

“The Black Book of Communism” is must have/must read book, IMHO.

Factually unassailable (original source material from the old Soviet archives) it lays out what really happened in excrutiating statistical detail.

I understand the agreement that some folks have with McCain here.

I will say anyway, that John McCain has no business calling anyone else a low life scum.

This is the mentally challenged person who thinks Tea Party members are low life scum.

John needs to zip it and retire.
