McCain: Suspend aid to Egyptian military
The Hill ^ | July 6, 2013 | Daniel Strauss

Posted on 07/06/2013 8:44:33 AM PDT by maggief

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) called on the United States to suspend aid to the Egyptian military as the country grapples with clashes between supporters and opponents of ousted President Mohammed Morsi.

"We have to suspend aid to Egyptian military because the military has overturned the vote of the people," McCain said Friday according to Al Jazeera. "We cannot repeat the same mistakes that we made in other times of our history by supporting removal of freely elected governments."

McCain said that Washington should demand the Egyptian arm set a timetable for elections and for making a new constitution, the network said.

“And then we should evaluate whether to continue with aid or not,” he said.

He ought to buy a turban for himself, a burka for Cindy, have Megin circumcised without an anesthetic, and declare Obama the True Mahdi. Then he could go out and perform the greatest sacrament of his new religion by flying a crowded airplane into an office building.

We should suspend aid to the entire world.

Suspend Juan’s pay....and stuff him in a closet somewhere. The old loon is getting so tiresome and is always wrong.

I wouldn’t classify him as a hero. But it has been reported that he was offered repatriation because he was the son of an Admiral. He chose to decline and remain with the other prisoners. It isn’t ‘hero’ stuff in the conventional sense but it did show loyalty and determination.

That said, it is likely his ingrained stubborn temper that drove him to that, and his years since have just shown, me anyway, that he is just completely crazy.

Please be respectful and change the word “cow” to “pig” to honor his true religion.

McCain is becoming a cartoon character. He needs to retire.

McCain is at it again! He apparently regrets the Ikhwan being thrown out, because they were "freely elected."

McCain: Suspend aid to Egyptian military

Brilliant!

Why didn't you think of that a year and half ago?

We do not have the best and brightest as leaders in this country. Mostly what we have leading us are the corrupt and contemptuous.

Washington needs an enema.

I wish I had a solution to mccain, but I don’t short of sticking him in a cheap plywood barrel and rolling him over Niagra Falls.

Proposition: McCain is a wholly owned subsidiary of the obama crime family.

Agree or disagree?
