STATEMENT BY SENATORS McCAIN AND GRAHAM ON END OF THE QADAFFI REGIME IN LIBYA
Sen, John McCain website ^ | August 21, 2011 | John McCain - Lindsey Graham

Posted on 08/21/2011 6:46:36 PM PDT by LeoWindhorse

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) today released the following statement regarding the end of the Qadaffi regime in Libya:

“The end of the Qadaffi regime in Libya is a victory for the Libyan people and for the broader cause of freedom in the Middle East and throughout the world. This achievement was made possible first and foremost by the struggle and sacrifice of countless Libyans, whose courage and perseverance we applaud. We also commend our British, French, and other allies, as well as our Arab partners, especially Qatar and the UAE, for their leadership in this conflict. Americans can be proud of the role our country has played in helping to defeat Qaddafi, but we regret that this success was so long in coming due to the failure of the United States to employ the full weight of our airpower.

I didn't realize we had declared war on Libya.

LOL! Two years ago this month Linsey and Juan led a US Senate “On the Road to Tripoli” visit to shake hands with Qadaffi. The clueless “pretty in pink” US RINO Senate tool Susan Collins even CURTSIED to Qadaffi once he stopped ignoring her long enough to look her way. DUMB, Susan!

What a bunch of boobs. And I don’t mean Susan’s.

I’ll wait for the statements from people who are more relevant than McCain and Graham. Like Lady Gaga and that Snooki woman.

Once all the militant Muslim countries unite they will move against Israel.

All hell will break loose.

But never fear, we will have McCain and sissy girl Linshe to guide us through the turmoil. /sarc

This is like watching Hitler vs Stalin, if only both could lose.

Dear Senator McCain And Your Faithful Fool:

Has anybody yet determined what the politics of the rebels might be? Do we have any idea who they are? Or what they intend to do?

I thought not.

The achievement of possibly installing an Al Qaida regime in Libya.

McCain should have been the Messiah's running mate instead of his opponent. In fact, sometimes he acted as if he was so: he's a decent family man
