Was just on NBC morning show to talk about the rabble, rabble going on over in the House IC committee meeting, how it looks bad for Trump, and there are more shoes to drop, and suspicious of changes to the Rep. platform at the convention
Then at the very end . . . .
Q: So when there other shoes drop, is that a fatal blow to this young admin?
McCain: I don't know? I just said there are always more shoes dropping in big events like these. I just don't know what they are at this point
Q: You said that the comments by Dem. Schiff are looking bad for Trump? Have you seen this new information that he is claiming to be beyond circumstantial?
McCain: No, I've not seen it. We have nothing new on the Senate side
Phouc that carpetbaggin' SOB, and whatever the source of misfortune that brought his sorry war loving azz to Az. I "owe" him jack schiddt.

No, we don't really owe him schit. He owes us, or more accurately, he owes the people of Arizona. If his past negatively affects the way he does his job, he owes it to them to step down.
He lost something like five aircraft in a relatively short career. Had he not been and admiral's son, he never would have been in a position to get captured and become a "hero". He would have been flying rubber dogshit out of Hong Kong or flying a desk somewhere.

Forget about the aircraft ... what about the lives of 134 sailors and numerous others that were injured on the USS Forrestal? See:
I fully appreciate what he went through and sacrificed for this[our] country. He NOW chooses[ of his own accord] to be a U.S. Senator. Is he above reproach? I don't understand why if so? Please explain. My comment above was in reference to his having his azz handed to him 8+ years ago by Obama. IMO he never has gotten past that. If he isn't a fan of the current admin that's fine, but when he says stupid sheit like he did this morning he is undermining his own party.
i live in his district i remember him when he moved here from virginia i remember him even as a congressman it is a protected district in that people will vote in the majority of a republican candidate over what ever demcratic scum is running against the republican. a lot of money, lot of old boy support, and noone has been an effective challenger in the primary. i had hope this last time around with a very good candidate running against him, but she couldn't quite make it. he has been an embarrassment for years.
McCain and Bob Dole both need to be put out to pasture. Losers both in failed runs for the presidency, both banked on "war hero" status being their key to success.

Kelly Ward WON the primary here in Cochise, Ron,...he's in no way popular hereabouts.

Bob Dole hopped on a grenade. I bet his buddies hold him in high regard. McCain rode his father's status around quite a bit, and sold out his fellow prisoners. I don't hold it against him that he broke under torture, but it doesn't make him a hero. At this point, he is an enemy of the President. That makes him my enemy too.
He went through 5 1/2 years in a hell hole prison in Viet Nam.
He was tortured daily and I'm pretty sure that 5 1/2years seemed like 500 years
I read his book about the time he spent there and it is scary as hell. And I'm sure it seemed like hell.
I dealt with him directly when I was with the Navy and he was very impressive but also very edgy, all of which is understandable.
I think we can justifiably give him some slack. We owe him big-time.

While nobody appreciate those that served more than I. McCain is long past his usefulness in the Senate. At least as long as he has a R next to his name. A Republican or a Conservative...he is not.

Hitler served with distinction in the German army. He doesn't get a pass for his sins and neither should McCain. He is conspiring with the progressive fascists toviolate the will of the American people as expressed in the 2016 election.
I can't stand the sumana bitch but do you believe that you wouldn't read that if you had a knife on your neck after they dislocated your shoulders? I give him a pass on this one.

Bogus. McCain volunteered to stay a POW even though he was given the chance to go. Even a mental midget, given the NVA would give zero credibility to that video.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

That's fair enough. "not believed" so why are we to believe that he chose to stay? To many lies connected to him to believe anything except what we see now. Fug John M. trader SOB!

rumor has it kelly is going to go after flake, you can only hope and pray. I wish i could tell the story of mccain etc., it is an interesting one. I have no respect for him at all.

Because Medal Of Honor recipient VADM Stockdale said as much. Works for me, and I hate the SOB as well.

No reason to support some old POW vet when we have a perfectly good, self made, hard working, patriotic, selfless, New Yorker who deserves our support and, indeed, our admiration. GD

Without a doubt, neither should we support other war heroes like Benedict Arnold..

Yes thanks for your sacrifice but your time is up and you need to get the hell out of D.C.! You are a stuttering old fool who is trying to remain relevant.
My home is the "sanctuary residence" for my firearms.
Senility is bad but enough .... but these guys are claiming that John (Insane) McCain may actually be responsible for some of the White House leaks. See:

With respect, no sir. We owe him nothing. The service he gave is out weighed and over shadowed by what he has been and done the last 10+ years. McCain has fallen far.
He's done much more TO the USA than he did FOR her. Using his time of service/suffering to enable a career of wealth/privilege doesn't make him a hero, for life. There are plenty who suffered greatly in the Southeast Asia War Games, but very few have been on easy street ever since, and even fewer have done it through self-serving political position.
