“Shortly after the shooting, President Obama traveled to Tucson and gave a terrific speech.”

Together We Thrive. The t-shirts said so.

What a scumbag!

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

From my cold dead hands, McCain!

In the wake of the tragedy, many pieces of legislation have been introduced by well-meaning members of Congress in an attempt to prevent future violence. I look forward to being engaged with these members

This sentence and a half defines McCain's position. "Well meaning" is code word for people I respectfully disagree with. "I look forward to being engaged with these members," probably means he will debate with them.

So McCain is against current legislation proposals. The real issue is whether or not he will have his mind changed as he debates.

Any politician who votes to eliminate the private sales or transfer of firearms has committed an unpardonable capital crime.

Such a law would be the end of the 2nd amendment's provision for keeping arms, and the end of the 4th amendment's provision for us to be secure in our persons and papers.

This is a hill to fight and die on.

Dumbass McPain IS in the wrong party. He belongs in the Communist Party, or at the least he needs to become a Democrat.

the inhumane and depraved actions of this individual appear to be motivated solely by an extremely disturbed mental state, and not by the influence of any particular political party, agenda, or actor.

His leftist ties were numerous.

"While paying lip service to the Second Amendment [note the capitals], I will miss no opportunity to reach across the aisle and sell out the base that sent me to Washington."

"The base" did not send this rino to Washington.

Yes. I didn’t realize that my loathing for this man could grow any stronger, but it has.

Only the latest from Sir Limp-wrist. He may have thought he detected the prospect of a miniscule element of support from the gun-control pussies.

When will McCain and the rest of these idiots understand that the criminal pays no attention, whatsoever, to gun legislation that is passed by the US Congress, State Legislatures, or local governments. Criminals get guns via criminal means and methods, and criminals use guns for crimes against society.

Shaking my head in agreement. When they endorsed this guy’s return to Washington, D. C., I saw it as a massive crash and burn. At no time have they said even a small ooops either.

If you can’t see what John McCain has always been, and always will be, why should I want you to take that 3:00 am call?

No thanks.
