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

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.

When anchor Martha MacCallum asked him about the White House's handling of the suspension of death benefits to military families, McCain said that while the administration deserves blame it was a GOP-induced shutdown that caused the problem in the first place.

Notice today that Senator McCain is carrying the water for Obama by saying on FOX that “- - - defunding Obamacare is a fool’s mission.”

Perhaps MCCAINCARE might be a better name for this Communist Box Canyon Law currently called Obamacare?

So Reid and Obama both saying “we won’t negotiate with the rest of government” doesn’t mean anything to him?

McAinal McQueeg is totally irrelevant with conservative republicans. He is only important to the gay rats, who control our media. These dregs of humanity, spend their semi sober hours in Gay hot tubs, writing bs about their hero while trying to make Ted Cruz look bad. In spite of their trash posing as journalism, we now have the totally irrelevant McAinal McQueeg and a stronger Ted Cruz.

This back-stabbing fool has been obvious in his purposes for a very long time. And now with crime being so in, in DC, he is just speaking up like the rest of the radical leftists.

Perfect poster-child for the RINO element.

And of course - and as John McCain has certainly calculated - every corrupt MSM news organization will now cite “Republican” Senator who agrees it’s all the GOP’s fault.

I believe McCain has done this with intended malice.

McCAin’s selling out Republicans just like he sold out POW’s. He’s a steaming pile of crap.

This is pathetic, thought something would happen, we’ve had so many govt. shutdowns in the past, no big deal.

You can always depend on a Republican to sabotage their own party.

Saw him this morning on that show. Still going on with his ‘Fools Errand’ remarks. I just turned him off. He is getting as irritating as Juan Williams and Colmes.
