In a new book, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) writes that his battle with brain cancer has given him a sense of liberation to vote and speak his mind.
“This is my last term,” McCain writes in his upcoming book The Restless Wave, which he co-authored with former adviser Mark Salter. An excerpt of the book was posted Monday on Apple News.
“If I hadn’t admitted that to myself before this summer, a stage 4 cancer diagnosis acts as ungentle persuasion,” McCain continues. “I’m freer than colleagues who will face the voters again. I can speak my mind without fearing the consequences much. And I can vote my conscience without worry. I don’t think I’m free to disregard my constituents’ wishes, far from it. I don’t feel excused from keeping pledges I made. Nor do I wish to harm my party’s prospects. But I do feel a pressing responsibility to give Americans my best judgment.”

Jihadi John McCain friend of headchoppers
Mr. Keating 5 speaks....
Fasten your seatbelt, Juan. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
A cousin of yours?
Here’s a thought:
Do you realize this idiot is eligible to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery?
What a country!
Not that I wish death on any soul, but, I’m already cringing thinking about the fawning, sycophantic press and media 24/7 sobfest and unhinged tales of the greatness, service and honor McCain will get....
In the end he was a bought and paid for corrupt politician most of his career...
Just like Arlan Specter, the dark spirits moved in while he was under general anesthesia and all drugged up.
I wonder who wrote the book for him.
They sent Gunny. R Lee Ermey on ahead to kick thay Navy Pilots ass all the way to hell!
Speaking his mind? Pamphlet length, at best.
How about showing up to vote? Or just go ahead and die.
We need your vote you selfish bastard.
When you die John, I’m going to hire an entire Home Depot parking lot to piss on your grave!
The Man Who Did Nothing for Arizona
Whatta fraud
We all voted for him back in the day cuz we thought he was patriot
Then we found out he was just nutz
Forgive me Dear Lord, for what I’m thinking.
Tick tock.
Take Meghan with you.
How was he able to write a book but not able to be in DC to represent his state? If he couldn’t represent his state, then why didn’t he resign?
He hasn't represented this state for many decades, health issues or no
The 2008 elections were a setup, a heads we win, tails you lose
game set up by the globalists.
I thought this was obvious:
