Republican Sen. John McCain says President Barack Obama is "directly responsible" for the mass shooting in Orlando, Florida, because Obama has allowed the growth of the Islamic State group on his watch.
McCain — who lost to Obama in the 2008 presidential election — made the comment to reporters Thursday while Obama was in Orlando visiting with the families of those killed in Sunday's attack and some of the survivors.

“Sen. John McCain says President Barack Obama is “directly responsible” for the mass shooting in Orlando,”
I’ll buy that.

A better charge would be that Obama is responsible because of what he has done to the FBI and other enforcement agencies so that they cannot identify an Islamic terrorist even after at least three reports and two investigations.

You need to look in the mirror, too, McCain.

He’ll get around to blaming Christians and ‘wackobirds’ just as soon as the last primary vote is counted.
To: McGruff
Look for him to walk this back in a day or so after the media onslaught.

Sorry, not “directly”. The Muslim piece of crap is directly responsible. bammy facilitated it.

Hell ya...its election season and this fart will say anything to get back in.
In AZ, a very large population is retired and vote for him en mass.

because Obama has allowed the growth of the Islamic State group on his watch. Absolutely true. Failure to take out ISIS emboldens jihadis worldwide. Muslims invariably retreat in the face of strength and advance in the face of weakness. Obama has been intentionally weak, as one would expect from a Muslim Bruthahoodie.

I think the world is coming to an end — McCain sounds like Trump.

Well, I don’t think that is fair.
The shooter is responsible for his actions and Islam is what Islam has been for 1400 years
Then again, maybe if he had a job, he wouldn’t have felt compelled to act on the murderous intent of his cult.../S

“Sen. John McCain says President Barack Obama is “directly responsible” for the mass shooting in Orlando,”
Was there any doubt?
