McCain only will say the right thing when his job is on the line. I really don’t think he believes this. It’s such a safe thing for him to say as well as Obama would never do it.
Too bad the truth comes out of the mouth of a phony RINO who just wants to get re-elected, then forget about all of us for another 6 years.
McCain lying again...what else is new
There is nothing wrong with the law. It does not violate federal law.
My city, Irving TX, does this. We hand criminals who turn out to be illegal over for deportations.
Juan doing his every-six-year impersonation of an American.
Soros bitches cat fight
Johnny wants everybody to forget about his past. The only thing that matters is what he says NOW, which is subject to change without notice.
Because of McCain's past backstabbing and disloyal liberal coddling I could care less if the asshole realizes it or not. As far as I'm concerned he's done!
That breeze you feel is McSham traveling at the speed of light towards the right. Hurry Juan!
Gee John, what happened to amnesty and turning all the illegal, criminal aliens into perfect, law abiding US citizens that speak English and never break the law?
Speaking of Shamnesty... thy name is Juan.
Do you honestly believe this man would shill for votes?
Interesting... that cartoon is from 2008. Some things never change.
Perhaps Juan will be different when the occupant of his Senate seat changes.
Or, they could do something really novel, like properly man and equip the border patrol. In one of his campaign ads, J.D. Hayworth says there are twice as many NYC cops as there are BP agents. If true, there is something wrong with that picture, over eight years after 9/11.
What a lying sack of horse dung.
On that date President Obama signed Executive Order 13528 creating the Council of Governors removing the responsibility of the National Guard from the specific state governors to the Council appointed by the President."
TYRANNY! USURPATION OF STATES' RIGHTS!
Ping!
I guess, even in Senator McCain’s world, a broken clock is right twice a day...
Usually I welcome people who change their mind and do the right thing. However, in McCain’s case I suspect it will last only until he wins reelection.
Just between you and me, I’d say that McCain’s chances of reelection are somewhere between slim and none.
He’s going to lose in the Primary.
Send money to JD, I got a really cool postcard from JD saying “Thanks a Million”!!!
No idea what he said but I’d probably agree with post # 7.
Juan realizes that he is history. So now he wants to be on the conservative side, he sees the shift in the winds of political fortune! LOL.
But Obama will never secure the border.He wants world socialism without borders.
The real reason Arizona is acting now?
The MURDEr/ASASSINATION of a rancher who owned a huge spread, an assasinatuon for informing the feds against Mexican drug traffic across his spread. The Mexican cartel send an assassin in to Arizona on foot to kill the rancher for informing the feds about the drug route which resuted in an arrest and parehension of 290 lbs of marijuana.
The MSM was silent on it.
See it here:

While investigators don’t have a motive yet (sic), retaliation has been raised as a possibility, Dever said. The day before the shooting, the victim’s brother, Phil Krentz, reported drug smuggling activity on the ranch to the Border Patrol.
Agents found 290 pounds of marijuana on the ranch and followed tracks to where they found and arrested eight illegal immigrants, said Border Patrol Tucson Sector deputy chief Robert Boatright. None were prosecuted because of a lack of evidence. They were all in custody when the shooting occurred, he said.
Krentz regularly called the Border Patrol to let them know about illegal activity on the ranch, the agency said.
Dever also said there was another incident within 24 hours of the shooting that could be connected involving a gun, but he would not elaborate.
The area where the shooting occurred is a well-known drug and people smuggling corridor, Boatright said. In the summer of 2009, after seeing a spike in activity in the area, the agency opened a base staffed around the clock with 20 agents.
Dever said his deputies have responded to numerous calls from residents in the area about burglaries, property damage and even a few home invasions. Recently, the county had assigned all of the deputies working overtime hours under the Department of Homeland Security’s Operation Stonegarden grant program to the area.
“There has been a prevailing sense for sometime in the community that something like this was going to happen,” Dever said.
The shooting has sent a chill through county, and particularly among ranchers in the Portal/Apache area, Dever said.
“Rob Krentz was a good friend of mine. The entire family, the ranching community and all of Cochise County is deeply impacted by this horrific event,” Dever said. “They are deeply saddened by the loss of a good man.”
Wendy Glenn, who lives on the neighboring Malpai Ranch, said she heard Krentz radio to his brother Sunday morning on a radio network used by area residents.
“He said ‘There’s an illegal here that needs help’ and ‘I’m out at such and such windmill’ and ‘Please call the Border Patrol,’” Glenn said. “His brother said ‘I can’t hear you.’ ”
In that area, most ranchers use All Terrain Vehicles to check water supplies, fences, cattle and do other jobs on the ranch, Glenn said.
The Krentz brothers’ conversation was routine for the area between the New Mexico border and the Chiricahua Mountains, which has been an active corridor for border crossers, she said.
Agents from the Border Patrol’s El Paso sector have helped in the area, but they have difficulty communicating with the agents from the Douglas station because of differences in their radio systems, Glenn said.
Krentz was a member of the board of the directors of the Malpai Borderlands Group, an organization of conservation-minded ranchers. The Krentzes also had a conservation easement on the family’s land, meaning the land can’t be subdivided.
“They really believe that if you take care of what’s out here, it will take care of you,” Glenn said.
Krentz’s family had been ranching their property since 1907, and in 2008 the Krentz Ranch was inducted into the Arizona Farming and Ranching Hall of Fame.
