Here’s why Collins and Murkowski voted against skinny repeal.

“Another reason the two senators opposed the “skinny repeal” — it would have eliminated funding for Planned Parenthood and similar providers, which both of them made clear they would oppose.”

“... just ended his career. “

He was just re-elected after barely winning his primary. He has another five and a half years or death to take him out.

Why did Mcshamejerk voted no on Rand bill fully repeal? He probably had a senile moment.

For what it's worth, patients with high grade gliomas rarely last more than 1-2 years. I don't wish this kind of end on anyone - I would have much rather seen McCain's political career come to an end by being voted out of office.

Two things. First, McCain will be dead in a few months.

Second, I believe it was Wall Street Journal reporter John Fund who was on Stuart Varney on Fox Business Channel this morning who brought up an excellent idea. He said that when Congress passed Obamacare, Obama ordered that Congress be provided an exemption to Obamacare. He suggested that President Trump reverse that exemption order, thereby bringing every member of Congress under Obamacare. That move, if Fund is correct, surely would get their attention.

Put him in Medicare to see how long he will survive?

How many paragraphs do we need to say “because he’s a demon possessed duochebag”?

It's all about the show. He just loves seeing his picture on the news.

The op is wrong. McStain voted the way he did because he is a miserable, scumsucking, degenerate, bought and paid for D bag.

Of course that is just my opinion. I could go on but he is not worth the effort.

Personally, I’d rather have seen him drug through the mud, destitute and broken.

Instead, I’ll be content to see him waste away, hopefully in the same pain he’s put We the People through. Let Hell dish out the last of his just desserts.

IMO, not enough peeps on the ‘low road’ to do what needs be done.

A sign reading: “Do Not Resuscitate” should immediately be placed on both!

“We must now return to the correct way of legislating and send the bill back to committee, hold hearings, receive input from both sides of aisle, heed the recommendations of nation’s governors, and produce a bill that finally delivers affordable health care for the American people.”

And you've had seven years to do that. "Mañana," eh, John?

McCain hates tax paying Americans and loves democrats, illegals, Isis and companies which make weapons of war.

Has he done any any of us as a $inator?

He’s been voting with the Democrats for years. Can’t blame this vote on brain cancer.
