McCain To Fox News: No, The Shutdown Is The GOP's Fault

Posted on 10/11/2013 9:54:23 AM PDT by Arthurio

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) channeled his inner-maverick Friday during an appearance on Fox News Channel, repeatedly reminding the conservative network that the government shutdown was brought about by the quixotic effort to halt the Affordable Care Act.

Biggest blackest mark on Sarah’s record is that she actually went and campaigned for his reelection.

He should be booted out of the GOP, if there were sane people in charge

This political hack seems to think he is a peer of the realm. Being stupid is not a admirable trait.

McCain is just a total POS. The son of a bitch should just join the Democrat party or get the hell out of Washington.

He is useless to the party.

Never happen. He should be actively marginalized in the GOP until he self-destructs.

Of course it the GOP’s fault!

They should take a couple of reams of new blank paper, all of them sign the last sheet and lay it at Royal Feet of Hussein The Master.

The only good think McCain ever did was to introduce us to Sarah Palin. He probably regrets that also. Can't believe I had to pull the lever that that old fool.
