Staring at the specter of a partial government shutdown, Sen. John McCain says he's never seen anything like the harsh partisanship pervading much of Washington politics.

The Arizona Republican, serving his fifth term, says "we are dividing the Republican Party rather than attacking Democrats."

Good, John. Your idea of “bipartisanship” is rolling over and playing catcher.

Sen. John McCain

Sir, with all due respect, you are not a conservative republican...never was and never will be. Since the death of you conscious, Col. Bud Day, you have sold your soul to the left.

“we are dividing the Republican Party rather than attacking Democrats.”

At least he’s being honest about his intentions.

McCain is a Democrat.

He can call himself anything he wants to, but he is a Democrat.

He is a vital part of the Democrat party.

Probably Obama has him on his contact list in his blackberry.

The worst partianship ever was when every democrat senator and every democrat congressman, without exception, voted with Obama to pass the health care bill that the majority of people here in this country didn’t want. Now that’s real partisanship, wouldn’t you say?

I love to be lectured about civility and getting along with others by a guy who wants to start about six wars.

McCain and the RINOS divided us by their Democrat-lite passive governing. Why isn’t the media framing their articles like they did with Bush? Remember, “bush must get along and compromise”....Obama just said he will not negotiate with terrorists and he meant republicans. WTF?

Wouldn't attacking the Democrats be a partaisan act?

I don't think his complaint is the excessive partiasanship. His complaint is that he's been unmasked as the irrelevant non-entity that he is and nobody gives a damn what he thinks or says. He equates bipartaisanship with the Republicans in the Senate following his lead.

Every time this turkey opens his mouth I think of the gang of 14 where he, Graham, and other turncoats managed to strike an agreement with the opposition to give away the Republican majority's advantage in a tiff over judicial nominations.

And here he is once again, pulling for the other side.

When clearly defined, issues can be resolved.

Then an ass like John McCain comes in to cause some to wonder if the Conservative efforts are sane or not. His actions concerning Cruz and the Tea Part are excellent examples.

There is massive partisanship and confusion, in no small measure because of John McCain. If he and a sellect few others had fallen in behind Cruz, these issues would be black and white.

Instead we are left with subtle shades of gray for far more members of our populace than there would normally be.

So John, if you are truly tired of the partisanship, go back to Arizona and let saner men lead.

You have been a total disaster. From your childhood to your adulthood, to your senile years, you have been one big massive F-up. And frankly, it’s getting worse by the day.

Go away!

"We are attacking Republicans instead of Dems....

Doesn't it occur to you John, that it is YOU that's guilty of what you claim ? WTF is wrong with you ?

I heard Sen Cornyn say yesterday he "would take every option available to stop Obamacare"....in his defense of NOT taking the option that he has available to him today 9.27.2013. WTF ?

Now that G-d has “cleaned out the “elders” in the Senate (”The Hawaiians,” The Lautencorpse etc.), Dianne Fineswine is the oldest at 80. Just wrote and “reminded” her that “she’s next.” There are fourteen now serving that were born before 1940 and in that group you have Levin, Reid, Mikulski, Hatch, McCain, Rockefeller, and Harkin. If you add up their current ages it equals more than 1300 years! In the “on deck circle of 1940,” you have three more POS, Leahy, Alexander, and Babs Boxer. No wonder that they’ve “opted out of Obamacare! Time for them to all go!
