Republican Sen. John McCain became so fed up with a Republican colleagues efforts to block the National Defense Authorization Act on Monday that he suggested in a floor speech that perhaps Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reids push to change the rules of the filibuster was not a bad idea.

For the precious few who might not already know, the NDAA allows the govt to snatch American citizens off the street without charge, without legal representation and they can hold you indefinitely. Traitorous, soulless filth. Who cares? The goons on this thread don't care about that. They're all for it! To this thread, McCain would be right if "WE" had the Senate. Barf.
Remember when only ponytailed commies used the term "fascist" to describe an American politician? Well, in 2012, about 75% are flaming fascists. Both parties.
I started reading this thread disgusted @ McCain. Now, I'm just depressed. There is no hope. Even if "we" win. Barf again.

He was primaried and won - remember J.D. Hayworth and the voters in AZ just love them some Rino McCain. Makes me scratch my head. The old coot needs to retire. I think his seat is good for another 4 years - not sure, so someone correct me if I’m wrong. Senators are elected for a 6 year term - House members have to run every 2 years. That hardly seems fair.

Forget the GOP, RINOs, all that.
McCain is a puppet of the MSM, that’s who owns him.

That might have been our other wishy-washy Senator, Voinovich. DeWine was voted out in ‘06.
