If it’s coming out of Juan McQueeg’s mouth, it’s a lie.

To a neocon, everything is vital to U.S. security. Therefore, we must intervene in all matters great and small, everywhere in the world.

The concept of individual countries looking out for their own interests is so quaint these days.

If Juan McNasty is against it, I’m for it.

I was taught in college in 1979 that the days of the nation state were numbered and it was time to begin getting your head around the idea of globalism.

You just knew at some point McCain would have to come out with the anti-conservative, anti-limited government, pro-empire statement, even on something irrelevant to him.

I predicted back in the early 2000s right after the Euro came out, that the Euro would crash and the EU would shortly after. The Euro is crashing (Thank you Greece) and UK is potentially pulling out of the EU. The EU is crashing. Socialism is so predictable.

Is this old fool so senile now that he doesn’t realize that its none of his business to be commenting on what Britain does or doesn’t do?

If having the UK in the EU is vital for the US, can we bomb them into submission if they try to leave?

Well now, I wasn’t too sure Britain should get out of EU - now I am positive getting out is in the best interest of England and the US.

Don’t forgot: ‘at whatever the cost, be it blood or treasure’.

John, it is well past time for you to STFU. You’ve had your 15 minutes, now begone. If you had anything worthwhile to say, we’d be in YOUR Presidency’s 8th year but, alas, you never did.

Stop interfering in the internal affairs of another nation.
