"While our Party has bestowed upon him the nomination, it is not accompanied by unfettered license to defame those who are the best among us," McCain said in a statement Monday. Did Trump go too far?

<> I think that's obvious by his (their) inability to accept it. I think it is a deeper problem. The business-as-usual Republicans are not capable of even considering a world where they don't pander to the left, because they live in insulated worlds surrounded by advisers who don't know crap.

Neocon or military industrial complex,bank lobby or a nation of indentured servants, kiss the hand of the warmonger.
