It’s disgusting that McInsane feels the need to insert himself into everything on Capitol Hill as part of his quest for relevancy (and reason for re-election in ‘10).

After “winning” the presidential nomination, and leadership of the party (that’s just flat-out strange every time I think about it), the McCain crap is slowly but surely passing through the GOP goose.

Actually, John, they don't and part of the reason was your pathetic 2008 campaign that too often kissed Obama's ass rather than draw a distinction between liberal values and conservative ones.

If any Republican deserves to have a voice in this boondoggle, yours would be the last I'd prefer to hear.

More like a giant wheel of cheese inside a python, and it’s blocked.

Can’t this guy just crawl off? I mean, I respect his service and all, but can’t we put him on a timer? He’s past his pull date.

Wasn’t it lord McCain’s campaign promise last year to tax employees health care benefits? Sounds like all he is demanding is credit where credit is due. Maybe he can’t get these liberals to share that credit?

“Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.”

How very true. What’s alot worse is that if Mac doesn’t do it, there are at least a dozen others who will.

No John, we don’t need to compromise with the enemies of freedom. You of all people should know this.

Is it possible, even remotely, that he doesn’t know how much he is reviled? Is he a masochist, a sadist, or both?

Atta boy John. Another-words, there is a better plan to set up nationalized health care.

John and his ilk of the Democrat wing of the Republican party think there’s a “right way” to set up Fascism.

Always a bastard to the bitter end...

I don’t revile him as a human being, I just revile his judgement.

McCain is like an old toothless lion.

Few pay any attention to his roars, expect a few of his ‘friends’ in the MSM.
