I want an investigation and if these two are tied to this scandal or knew about it, I want them exiled.

Has Politico published the story about how the 0bama administration wanted to give Libya military assistance one month before the Libyan civil war? Why is it you never post stories about the 0bama administration?

It's quite the delta between wanting to prop up a dictator who was making overtures to "be nice" by de-escalating nuclear aspirations, a country which provides oil to us, then swing wildly to sending support (McCain and Graham) to the rebels fighting against the guy we were propping up.
Again, I ask, who.....are.....the......rebels?????

McCain makes Franz Von Papen look like a courageous man.

“I disagree with many of the president’s policies, but I believe he is a patriot sincerely intent on using his time in office to advance our country’s cause,” McCain said. “I reject accusations that his policies and beliefs make him unworthy to lead America or opposed to its founding ideals.”

So, Senator, which of our country’s causes and founding ideals has Obama championed? And who sent you to Libya in the firt place to make deals with Gaddafi? Seems there’s such a thing as the Logan Act that doesn’t allow you to make deals with regimes without the man in the White House’s approval and backing.

Makes you wonder what kind of payoff they were getting from Mo. Reagan tried to kill this A-hole. Yet the RINOS are all snuggly in bed with him.

This is going to be embarrassing to the Democrats. Having one of their own, mixed up in this.

The rebels are mostly foreigners....this is not a civil war, it’s an invasion, pure and simple.

Qaddafi found out what conservatives already knew: McCain will stab you in the back.

McCain and Batboy cannot be retired soon enough.
