Yes, it was completely swept under the rug. Although actually it’s likely the original tumor that grew back. Surgeons are famous for saying “we got it all.” Yeah, right.

Cochran has not worked with a full deck for a long time, Melanoma or not...

He is mentally gone also...just a matter of time for that old dude as well.

We shall see.

K Street wants the corporate tax cuts in bill. Rubio and Corker won’t betray them.

McCain never has been a Republican team player.

If he can’t do the job he should resign, and let someone else do the job.

That should have been done months ago and shows poor planning on McCain's part ... or outright contempt for the country.

John McCain has placed his ego ahead of the country's interests.

Not a McLame fan (AT ALL), but there is something seriously wrong with our “system” when Senators or Congress-critters stay in office literally until they die.

Definitely not what our founders intended, and a big part of what is wrong with the way things are and have been for some time.

Now, Juan can leave at any time and I’d be a pretty happy camper. (Let me count the ways I absolutely despise him).

If I recall correctly, years ago there was a custom among gentlemen called “pairing.” If a senator on one side couldn’t be there for the vote, he would “pair” his vote with someone on the other side. Both would be among those not voting, so the outcome would not be affected.

OK I do not unload often but HG prepare.

So your big beef is people that spend their time making posts of interest to Freepers and excerpting them. You claim it is to make them rich. So number one. Numero uno..1# you hate wealth.

Numero 2. What it takes to write a coherent post that isn’t copied and pasted is work. Your posts are one or two sentences with questionable intelligence behind them. Yeah, you are dumb.

Shù 3. You are a jerk. You are a jerk to anyone on a thread you enter. If your mother did not beat you she should have.

Idadi 4. You are dumb as a stump.

Well we couldn’t get worse than McCain. He sucks. I hope God is more forgiving than me. McCain has caused so much death and destruction with the Muslim brotherhood and isis. Ban me if they must but I hope he rots from the inside out then rots in hell.

I can’t think of another politician I hate more.
