Sen. John McCain, the man who in 2008 put losing like a gentleman above doing what was necessary to keep then-Senator WrightAyersRezkoPleger out of the White House, appeared on CNN Wednesday with a fistful of red herrings designed to seek favor with his friends in the media by “othering” Donald Trump as a threat to all that holy and virtuous in America.
Speaking to CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, McCain once again proved that he had what it took to defeat Barack Obama but that he’d prefer to save his blistering rhetoric for his fellow Republicans.
McCain also proved that he knows absolutely nothing about the American Constitution. In his establishment-addled mind, only the DC Media has rights. The rest of us are required to dance to their tune:
“Anyone who is running for president and who gets to choose who the [debate] moderator is,” McCain said, using that ridiculous Solemn Voice of his. “That is the destruction of the free press, as we know it.”
First off, destroying the “press as we know it” is crucially important to our democracy. I’m all in favor of destroying the “press as we know it.” In fact, I’ve dedicated my career to it. The “press as we know it” is the most corrupt institution allowed to operate legally in America.
Moreover, Trump isn’t “choosing” the moderator any more than a trial attorney chooses the jury. Asking that a biased and unacceptable juror or moderator be removed is not “choosing.”
Riddle me this, Senator McCain:
We are in the second or third cycle of Democrats refusing to debate on Fox News, and somehow our democracy still stands.

What a dangerous old fool you are John McCain.
doesn’t McCAIN REALIZe there is no real Media.
if we had a media obama could not have destroyed as much as he did.
Are you kidding?
McCain doesn’t even realize that HE’S McCain!
No, he declared all MIA’s to be dead and labeled their relatives “arm chair Rambos”. John McCain and John Kerry won the war anyway.....
I have held my nose and voted for the GOPee person the last two times. Never again!
Trump is sending the media a message, and they better listen because he is going to be president. He is the ONLY one willing to jab them right in the eye. He understands this media is the first line of defense of everything we need to be rid of.
He says that like it’s a bad thang..................
John, John....if you want to know why we lose just look in the mirror, then look at your RINO pals that join you to reach across the aisle to fellate the demwits.
".....ooga boogah!"
Retire John. Sticking your nose up the MSM’s butt is very unflattering.
JUNE 24, 2013
Fox News has notably changed its tone since the election. A Democratic policy staffer who worked on the issue in 2007 and has helped write the current bill said, “NumbersUSA and FAIR” - two groups that want to dramatically limit immigration - “managed to convince Fox News back then to be their twenty-four-hour news channel of the anti-immigrant point of view. Fox has now totally bought in to the idea that we just need to figure something out.” Rush Limbaugh, who fiercely opposes the bill, has come to sound resigned. “I don't know if there's any stopping this,” he said on January 28th, the day the Gang held the press conference announcing its framework for the legislation. “It's up to me and Fox News, and I don't think Fox News is that invested in this.”
McCain told me, “Rupert Murdoch is a strong supporter of immigration reform, and Roger Ailes is, too.” Murdoch is the chairman and C.E.O. of News Corp., which owns Fox, and Ailes is Fox News's president. McCain said that he, Graham, Rubio, and others also have talked privately to top hosts at Fox, including Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, and Neil Cavuto, who are now relatively sympathetic to the Gang's proposed bill. Hannity voiced support for a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, which he previously dismissed as “amnesty,” on the day after the 2012 election. “God bless Fox,” Graham said. “Last time, it was ‘amnesty’ every fifteen seconds.” He said that the change was important for his re�«lection, because “eighty per cent of people in my primary get their news from Fox.” He added that the network has “allowed critics to come forward, but it's been so much better.”
If McShamey is upset I am happy
Who the hell is John McCain? Some idiot on dope?
Take note McCain. Trump is what happens when Conservatism does not work for Conservatives!
Someone both the Cruz & Trump supporters can come together to revile and ridicule.
Retire already you senile old goat!
That is a despicable thing to say.
You say "there are times"...please tell me the others.

John Nolte doesn't suffer fools... especially blowhard fools like McCain..
Instead they give him gobs of air time to flap his jaws for free, control topics of discussion, and starve his opposition.
