Sen. John McCain, Ill With Brain Cancer, Tells Western Allies 'I Am Counting on You (trunc)

Cindy McCain accepted an award on behalf of her husband John McCain, who is ill with brain cancer, on Saturday night at the Munich Security Conference. She read a letter from her husband in which the Republican Senator and longtime foreign policy hawk urges America’s allies to stand by the values that won the Cold War.

The Ewald Von Kleist Award is given for service to international peace and conflict resolution. It is named for a German who volunteered to wear a suicide vest in the attack on Adolf Hitler, and who founded the conference conference in Munich.

McCain’s call for unity came as many at the Munich conference criticized President Donald Trump for questioning the value of America’s post-war alliances.

Juan will likely find out he should be reaching out to God rather than European communists.

This stuff really blows my mind:

Ewald von Kleist-Schmenzin did try to assassinate Hitler.

But the Award seems to be named for Ewald von Kleist.

This is Ewald von Kleist:

Nazi Field Marshall. Died in prison.

The West IS NOT headed in the right direction.

These nations are hell bent on destroying themselves.

Trump tries to shake them up, get them to reevaluate their actions and goals.

Then the misguided and destructive McCain steps up to reassure them they don’t need to pay attention to Trump, short circuiting a process that very much needs to take place.

McCain is still the little child on the playground starting fights because he doesn’t know what else to do.

He cannot grasp adult level concepts, the strategy of applying pressure to effect change.

He in effect becomes the ally of Western nation’s in their suicide of nations.

McCain is an excellent example of what is wrong with Washington. We have roughly 535 people who think they are president.

McConnell, Ryan, the GOPe, the RNC, the DNC, the MSM, these entities are not only screwing up our nation, but are willing accomplices in the destruction of the West and the ascension of dark forces that will oppress the world in ways these misguided fools only thought the U. S. could and was.

Danger ahead...

Anyone with half a clue, please fight against McCain’s heir apparent, Mitt Romney. The man must not become the evil force in Washington he is almost certain to be.

I wonder if somewhere in the leftist cancer riddled brain, McLame believes by staying in the senate and not stepping down like he should, he will be dying in the line of duty.

He is a leftist after all so who knows...

Crazy McCain has done nothing for peace but has been itching for war.

Von Kleist was died in Soviet hands in 1954. I guess Stalin and his people wanted to stand up for their old ally, Adolph.

Does McCain know that he represents the state of Arizona and NOT the United States of America?

At. LAX today, a big magazine on McCain the “hero” was displayed right up front. Wonder if they know he’s about to pass away very soon?

Does McCain know...

He doesn't know much of anything these days. He's been off his rocker for a minute.

Haha, yea he has. But he’s thought he was running foreign policy for at least an hour and a half. :)

Funny. Cindy was kept drugged and muzzled for most of her life appearing with him. Now he wants her to talk? She was a chemically induced Stepford wife.
