Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Thursday walked back comments that President Obama was "directly responsible" for the mass shooting at an Orlando nightclub that left 49 people dead. "I misspoke," McCain said in a statement. "I did not mean to imply that the President was personally responsible. I was referring to President Obama's national security decisions, not the President himself."

You were right the first time you cajoneless dweeb...go back to gazing at cacti and retire...
McInsane must be senile.
Coward.
I figured either his handler was in the head or he was off his meds when he made that comment.
It also occurred to me that his polling in AZ was bad.
If Trump ever apologizes, I’ll be crushed.
Reeling in what you've said makes you look weak and ineffective, like you have poor control over your thoughts and words. It leaves one wide open for a counter-punch, which will no doubt be coming.
McCain should've doubled down, and accused Obama of doing all but pulling the trigger.
Those policies of Obama's administration can be blamed on hillary or Obama. The only other possibility is Hillary and Obama are equally responsible. So is the logical conclusion of McCain's statement clarification that hillary is responsible for the creation of ISIS?
Logically, shouldn't McCain be strongly condemning the possibility of hillary's victory?
And this is why our GOP-e politicians have failed utterly- they back away from the truth. The President is a disgrace, and failing to attack him for his failings is itself cowardice.
He might if he really felt that way. But, he doesn't!
F*ck John McNuts!
lol
This is why McCain lost.
It's the Islamaphobia cr** that he spews directly at "whitey".
It was stupid to say in the first place.
The Shooter was responsible. Not Obama, not the Gun, not the NRA, not Christians.
The lump in his left cheek has grown larger.
McCain is a sick man who should retire....
Gutless.
Funny how he doesn’t backtrack on his attacks on conservatives.
McCain just said “Obama is not responsible for Obama’s policies”, is that the gist of it?
So a person can say “Your Honor, I am not responsible for running up $3 million dollar debt.”
The father of the terrorist met with someone in the White House and I am betting it was obama himself.
I hope he croaks either way. He is evil.
The spineless bastard have a habit of backtracking and it’s getting redundant!
The gutless pussy.
He was only playing to the base in Arizona that is fed up with him. It was purely an act of self preservation. That will now backfire.
