John McCain was rightly heckled by many constituents last week in Phoenix, AZ over the blowhard senator's misguided call for bloody war in Syria as reported by Jason Howerton for The Blaze.
The warmongering windbag should just resign. The old fool has done more damage to the national security of the United States than perhaps any other ignorant politician with his repeated support for military intervention and other American meddling in the Middle East. Exactly what has the United States gotten for all of its spent lives and treasure in that God forsaken region of the world? Indeed, if the U.S. never stuck its big nose into the Middle East, then the World Trade Center Towers undoubtedly still would be standing today. And yet Senator McCain and his ilk still think the answer to the problem is more bombs.
Perhaps most disturbing is the sociopathic ease with which McCain calls for war as if it's all fun and games without horrible consequences to American soldiers and Syrian civilians.
The feeble-minded senator once infamously gleefully sang about bombing Iran to the Beach Boys tune "Barbara Ann" as then reported by The Associated Press:
"'That old, eh, that old Beach Boys song, Bomb Iran,' he said in jest Wednesday, chuckling with the crowd. Then, he softly sang to the melody: 'Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, anyway, ah ...' The audience responded with more laughter."
Hahaha -- war is such a joke.
And then last week during Senate hearings to authorize military strikes in Syria the dottering senator was caught playing video poker on his smart phone which in a surreal moment underscored McCain's emotional detachment from the serious debate as reported by Ed O'Keefe for The Washington Post.
Frankly, it's unclear why anyone would listen to Senator McCain on war matters. It's no secret within political circles that McCain is about the dumbest member of Congress, and he graduated at the very bottom -- 894 of 899 -- of his graduating class from the United States Naval Academy.
It's time for John McCain to go, and he should take boy wonder Lindsey Graham with him. These two purported Senate leaders would better serve the country if they just lived together on a deserted island where they could bide their time playing board games rather than war games.
And therein lies the tale of why we keep losing. Both parties are busy deconstructing the republicans. The republicans are in a civil war with each other and the Marxists are picking off the survivors.
Beat me to it.
John McCain’s tired old act as a political hack is exactly what I would expect from a guy who ranked #894 among the 899 graduates in his class at the U.S. Naval Academy.
McRino or the name used here on FR sometime ago ...McVain!!

You can’t recall a federal elected official.
