Not a day passes that I don’t hate myself for voting for him in 08. He is what solidified my determination to never again hold my nose, Palin or not.

Aw, shut up! The real story behind the picture is not one of a refugee family. But if a selfish father endangering his family on this hazardous trip from, wait for it....Turkey! Yup! Father wanted free dental in the west.

McCain has some connection with Syria that is not clear. He was the biggest proponent to overthrow Assad and he is all for taking in the refugees.

Someone needs to connect the dots so he can be defeated this next cycle.

I guess McCain isn’t paying attention, the father is a human smuggler and was driving the boat.

I red that the boy’s father put his family through this because he wanted his teeth fixed.

McCain is dangerous and despicable.

Again, I ask the same question concerning Arizona’s voters: JD Hayworth doing a stupid infomercial was worse than another six years of this garbage from McCain?

For a long time I’ve noticed that McCain has a curious affinity for getting along with the enemy:

Reaching across the aisle
You have nothing to fear from a President Obama
Now wanting to let in these people who won’t ever fit in
due to their religion

I’m sure there are many other examples but strange...isn’t it? He saves his vitriol for people like JD Hayworth who tried to primary him.

I’ve always suspected this behavior goes back to Viet Nam.

Well, as long as we're mourning dead children, let's not forget 4 year-old Juliana McCourt, who died along with her mother on Flight 175.

She would be 18 now, but for the blood-thirsty followers of the rapist war criminal Mohammed.*
