The Manchurian President

MCCAIN: Look, Arizona is under siege in many respects. We have broken borders. We have people flooding across. We have drug cartels inflicting incredible damage. We have — Phoenix, Arizona is the kidnapping capital of the world, second only to Mexico City.
And the legislature and the governor acted out of frustration because the federal government will not fulfill its responsibilities. I have said for years we have to secure the borders. We have to get the National Guard down there. We have to build a fence which I've said for years. We have to use surveillance and we have to have additional troops down there to start with the National Guard and then 3,000 additional Border Patrol.

MCCAIN: And every nation has the obligation to secure its borders. If you don't secure the borders then we're like a hamster in a wheel and people will be keep coming illegally. And finally, I remind you back in the 1980s under Ronald Reagan we gave amnesty to two million people on the proviso we would secure the border.
HANNITY: Hasn't happened.
MCCAIN: We gave the amnesty.
HANNITY: Alright.
MCCAIN: We didn't secure the border.

Dump McCain!! GO JD!!
McAmnesty was for himself before he was against himself.
Not that we want him back...
That’s what we’ve been trying to tell you, Juan!
He’s almost as good a liar as obama.
John, This statement is pure stupidity and shows just how your brain works:
“Phoenix, Arizona is the kidnapping capital of the world, second only to Mexico City.”
Wouldn’t that make Mexico City the kidnapping capital of the world? Oh, and don’t forget the kidnapping paradises in Central and South America.
I’m not saying it is not bad in Arizona, and I am very supportive of tough immigration law enforcement, but you sir are typical of the beltway thinkers. If you think us average Americans can’t see your rhetoric, then you are a beltway fool.
The best predictor of the future is how they have behaved in the past!
Don’t be faked out by Juan’s deathbed conversion.
Go J.D !
McCain has known for 25 years that we were supposed to secure the border when the original 2million amnesty was given.
It was never done.
The only thing that has changed for McCain is that he now he is in a tough reelection fight.
He’s a liar. ...and it’s too late for a dang fence
It’s time for a FREAKIN WALL.
Wow I finally agree with John McCain on something.
nice try McCain and the rest of the whiney Republicans that supported the open borders total amnesty crap. Just go away.
This article should be in the Onion, but it’s real.
I quickly loosing respect for Bill Bennett, who said he really found this ad to be sincere.
pft! How stupid can you get.
Just once in my lifetime....Dear God, give us a president with balls who will tell Mexico, the illegals & the enablers here in the U.S. to stick it up their @$$es, we are going to secure our borders once & for all, and deport any illegals that we find, including their anchor babies.
Will have to say that if the people of Arizona fall for this blatant revisionist history that McCain has ever been a border hawk I will have to question the mixed signals they send. The new law is nice but worthless if the polls they elect won’t follow through.
McCain’s time has come....to retire. He backed amnesty with his “path to citizenship” manure, and he got caught being two-faced. In short, John lied. Time to go!
John, you put new batteries in your hearing aid a couple decades too late.
Today's so-called leaders have absolutely no shame. They stop at nothing to keep their positions, and then think they can fool us with the lamest of arguments and the most transparent of motives. That they think this can be sucessful, shows how little they think of the intelligence of the American people and how much they perceive themselves as elites who are entitled to better than the rest. Look at Arlen Spector, and now McCain.
Is there a more selfish group of human beings than our current representatives in Washington? They ignore their responsibility to 300 million Americans, holding their personal self interest as their only interest.
The sad thing is they are reflective of those who elected them and keep them in power. It's difficult to be optimistic for our country. I'm afraid we have, at large, lost the qualities required for a society to keep freedom and liberty. The founding fathers knew it:
"Can the liberties of a nation be sure when we remove their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people, that these liberties are a gift from God? Thomas Jefferson
The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government." Patrick Henry
Sometimes, I am overwhelmed by how far and fast we have fallen. Gallup poll from Jan. indicated that 36% of Americans have a somewhat favorable view of socialism. That is astounding. I hope I am just momentarily discouraged; and there are enough good people to slow down this runaway progressive train come November.
If it doesn't happen in November, then what?
Apologies for the downcast point of view; it is just what is on my mind of late.
