John McCain to Tokyo & Beijing on the Senkaku/Diaoyu Island Dispute
The Diplomat ^ | August 26, 2013 | Jeff Head

Posted on 08/26/2013 9:18:47 PM PDT by Jeff Head

John McCain was in Tokyo speaking on he Senkaku Island (Japanese name) dispute with China, Wednesday, August 21, 2013. He said:

“The Congress in the United States resolution last year said the Senkaku is a Japanese territory. That is our position as a congress and as a government. I will continue to repeat that when I go to China.“ John McCain, Wednesday, August 23, 2013 in Tokyo

Two days later, John McCain was in Beijing speaking to the Chinese on the Diaoyu Island (Chinese name) dispute with Japan, Friday, August 23, 2013, two days later. He said:

"The U.S. has no position on the sovereignty issue of the Diaoyu Islands.” John McCain, Friday, August 23, 2013 in Bejing.

This is typical two-faced, John McCain. On so many important issues, he takes both sides depending on who he is talking to and tries to come across to both sides as some kind of great moderate, middle of the road man. He is completely shameless, shameful, and an embarassement. It's long past time for him to go.

McCain spoke real tough in Tokyo, said he was going to show the Chinese. Two days later he got to China and rolled right over for them.

Hey, RINO King; Don’t we have enough problems that require your rapt attention than having you winging off on some pointless junket to Japan(certainly on tax-payer money, to wail to babble about some dam fooking territory known as SenKAKU Island? What’s your angle on making this unwarranted
trip?

In other words, John McCain’s word is worth even less than Barack Obama’s...

What country does McCain wish to bomb in this instance, China or Japan? Or to play it safe, perhaps McCain will issue a call to bomb both of them.

Every time I turn on the news, I think that exact same thing.

I think the man is so addicted to media coverage he’ll say or do anything now to get his daily media fix.

One way to thumb his nose at his father <<- you know the Admiral..

Lots of rich american kids turned traitor(Hanoi Jane)..
But Jane(Peter) might have been a red diaper baby(s).. i.e. Henry...
The colleges were recruiting stations..

The Birchers tried to tell the republicans but they WOULD NOT HEAR IT..
And the ones that did just whined and did nothing..

It’s really a shame that SAM didn’t have just a little better lock. Think of all the air crew we lost...and McKennedy makes it out. Damn.

Is John McCain now Obama’s personal emissary, going from one hotspot to another to convey Obama’s message? Why is he globetrotting now. Has he gone rogue, or is he doing Obama’s bidding. And if so, what is the tradeoff. What does McCain get out of it, other than media glory? What kind of quid pro exists here?

And what does Obama get in return from McCain. Is the immigration bill and how it is shaped or how it gets passed part of this McCain/Obama partnership deal? And/or shaping of foreign policy issues? Is McCain the silent partner of Chuck Hagel, with or without his consent? There is more here than meets the eye, methinks.

P.S., McCain is gone all the time. Another man with a sham marriage, just like Bill Clinton. A marriage of convenience. Cindy McCain has undoubtedly been so done with McCain long ago. They live pretty much apart. McCain is with Lindsey Graham way more than he ever is with his wife.

quid pro = quid pro quo above. Forgot the “quo”. Typing too fast.
