On Sunday, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) appeared on CNNs State of the Union, where he called President Obamas Friday comments on Trayvon Martin and race very impressive. He said, I think we should continue to make progress, but added that we still have a long way to go, even as he declined to second guess the verdict in the George Zimmerman case.
McCain stated that we were probably too optimistic about race relations in the aftermath of the election of the countrys first black president. I think old prejudices die hard, McCain said. We have made significant progress, but I think recent events highlight the differences that remain. McCain also said he believed that Stand Your Ground laws should be reconsidered in light of the Martin case, despite the fact that Stand Your Ground was never invoked by Zimmerman and he was acquitted on grounds of self-defense.

Obama DID second guess the verdict. The jury believed Zimmerman (from the evidence) that he was attacked by Martin, who proceeded to punch him in his nose, knocking it crooked and bloodied, piled on top of him, banging the back of his head against the concrete pavement, attempted to wrest the gun away from Zimmerman. Obama takes every opportunity to stoke racial hatred and discord. - By the way, REMEMBER ANTONIO WEST! - Just another CREEPY BABY CRACKA, I suppose, by Trayvon’s definition. - The verdict in that case stank, too. -
Wow! I didn’t know McCain was such a dingbat!
If you consider a one-sided statement solely from the black perspective where the black community’s problems are blamed on white America impressive, then yes that was an impressive speech.
McCain’s days as a Republican in Arizona are numbered.Sure he wants to run again (what else would this failed disturbed man do?) and will change parties to do so.
When the crime statistics start reporting an insignificant difference, then we've made progress. Reducing black criminality to white levels should be the priority.
McCain remains the piece of excrement that he has been for quite some time now.
McCain should get himself checked out for a brain tumor.
LMAO! I was going to post this, but afraid I’d get totally
flamed! Glad you’re willing to take the hit. Thanks Gator.
Plus, the image of that fat, idiot daughter of his lounging
around the white hut would have sent be ‘round the bend!!
Shut up, McCain - did you even follow the trial and examine the evidence?
The epitome of a RINO and the #1 example of why the admitted foreign born twice unconstitutionally elected communist gets away with his crap.
mclame’s family (if they had any integrity and honor) would have involuntarily committed this degenerate loser years ago. Instead, we are subjected to his lunacy and drooling daily. Sheesh...talk about someone who is wasting oxygen and space.
Juan thinks?
A McCain Presidency would have destroyed the GOP for good.
However, I'm not embarrassed by McCain, but disgusted instead. And McCain and the refusal of other Republicans to really stand up to him helped Obama destroy this country!
McCain is just a nutcase like Obama is!!! Did you folks see the “Obama” Black Racist “Trayvon Martin” protests yesterday??? Nobody showed up!!! Trayvon Martin was naught but a Black racist, thief, street gangsta, gangbanger, druggie, etc. looking for trouble!!! Good news is most of the nation and millions of American Blacks could care less about him, other then the America haters starting with POTUS Obama. Poor John McCain is braindead!!! This farce is over and Obama is now a full blown “Lame Duck” POTUS!!! And...if Holder has any brains, he’ll resign from his Attorney General slot immediately for race baiting when none is needed!!!
Do senators get a hospitalization benefit for senity?
