warning: this person is unstable....

1. He sees things, he hears things

[DURHAM D]

2. Jonathan Alter was just on Tweety.

He tried to say this trumped up mess by McCain has to do with Petraeus but Tweety (as usual) talked over him. I really want to know what Jonathan was trying to say.

[spanone]

6. yea i saw that....i hate the way he talks over people.

they showed matt lauer asking about condi rice this morning on the today show and mccain just blew it off....pulled the old 'everybody thought they had wmds' bullshit

[DURHAM D]

13. And added - 4 people died.

Seems to have forgotten about Iraq deaths.

[patrice]

23. Someone also needs to ask Republicans AGAIN about April Glaspie's little "mistake". nt

[TahitiNut]

54. Funny how that just disappeared "down the emery hole" huh?

That STUNK to high heaven! They set up their FORMER PARTNER big time!

[patrice]

57. That's what they think diplomats do, hence they can't believe Susan Rice isn't like that.

[Cracklin Charlie]

47. I knew they didn't have wmd

And I was a Missouri housewife at the time. If I knew...they knew.

How I knew? WMD are not built to sit on a shelf, and use when needed. They are built and used right away. Components, yes. Weapons, no. It just doesn't work the way they claim.

McCain proves himself to be just a hack, over and over again. Don't they get tired of us making fun of them?

[TahitiNut]

55. The notion they had the capability to MANUFACTURE WMD was an even more obvious LIE.

It never made ANY sense that supposedly 'smart' people bought into that shit! Years of an inspection regime and we're supposed to believe that he just had them tucked away in one of his many closets? Fucking nonsense!

[Bucky]

8. Alter's great. Watch this space here over the next couple of days

click here on Saturday or Sunday. ==> http://www.bloomberg.com/view/bios/jonathan-alter/
Something new & worth reading will be there.

[sandyshoes17]

9. Saw that

Maybe someone will have it later. Sounds like he said its about Petraeus, but he's his guy or something like that. So they're going after her. She got the intel from the CIA. So it falls on Petraeus not her.

[LSK]

51. I am thinking that Rice got her info from Petraeus n/t

[Lucinda]

3. Hey! I guessed right. But it could have been several others...

[spanone]

25. you're right, the options are endless...bwahahahahahaaa

[Rider3]

4. He's been like this forever...

[madinmaryland]

5. I wonder if he speaks to empty chairs, also. Hmmm.

[Arugula Latte]

7. He needs to go away. When is his term up?

[starroute]

35. Not until 2016

So we're stuck with him for now.

[Arugula Latte]

40. Aww, crud.

The dude's gonna be 80 by then ...

[Dalai_1]

10. Kick

[Grammy23]

11. Let him keep up the crazy talk. Even people in his own party are starting to

disagree with him. So let him talk his way out of his Senate seat. Won't be too long before even his constituents doubt his sincerity and his thought processes. Kind of sad to see him come to this but I, for one, won't shed a tear when he is toddling on back to Arizona. He has pissed me and many others off one time too many. All of the regard people had for him has faded and has been replaced by disgust for his nasty attitude.

[Helen Reddy]

12. As well as his profoundly obvious

mental instability, his lump is back on his left cheek. What the heck is that?

One other thing, his daughter Meaghan needs to not be given any more passes about her father, she is a political pundict isn't she? No more kid gloves about dear old dad.

[struggle4progress]

14. "Why should I have to go to scheduled briefings to learn what's known about Benghazi?"

[louslobbs]

15. Once thought of as a hero, always known to have a bad temperament, part of the Keating 5 debacle

fails to get elected President (even with the former star of reich wing politics, Sister Sarah on board), flip flops like crazy to keep his Senate seat after his failed Presidential run against "that one," gets nastier and crazier as the years pass, and finally, will go down in history as just another unstable, lying, corrupt, extremist lunatic Republican politician like so many before him.

Lou

[Little Star]

17. What you said...

[louslobbs]

46. Yeah, it's really disgusting to watch and listen to all the BS and garbage they spew each day. They

turn my stomach.

[Baitball Blogger]

16. I liked the John McCain that Ed Harris portrayed in Game Changer.

What happened to that guy?

[dchill]

44. Apparently, it was an act.

[Carni]

18. His depends are too tight! eom

[eyewall]

43. He should try Magic Underware™

Romney should be able to fix him up.

[hifiguy]

19. Ten or twelve years ago he was an honorable man.

These days if he had any sense of decency he would let Cindy lead him back to one of their countless homes where he could marinate in his bitterness about getting trounced by the Black Guy and play with his mush in peace.

[beac]

34. John McCain was NEVER an "honorable man." NEVER.

He's been a miserable sack of scum since his days at the USNA. How he ever conned anyone into thinking he had a honorable bone in his body is one of the great political mysteries of our time.

John McCain is scum and always has been.

[jaysunb]

39. Amen !

I still don't understand all the "honorable guy" crap.

[CRH]

41. Thank You. . n/t

[Ineeda]

42. Rolling Stone 2008, "Make Believe Maverick"

Very informative and revealing article here: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/make-believe-maverick-20081016
It confirms what you say. He, indeed, was never an honorable man.

[calimary]

53. Did anyone see this post, re mcsame becoming unspooled at a reporter's unfortunate question:

MOST amusing story in TPM - where he let his temper fly at a CNN reporter who dared to ask him a rather pointed question. But note the post below it - someone referring to "'Wet Start Johnny' in 1967" ?!?!? Sounds like some sort of military slang?


Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) flashed his temper on Thursday morning when confronted with questions from a reporter regarding the former Republican presidential nominee's absence from a briefing on the September terrorist attacks at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
According to CNN, most Republican members of the Senate committee in charge of investigating the attacks were absent from the classified briefing, which was led by Obama administration officials on Wednesday. On the same day, McCain held a Capitol Hill press conference to call for a special investigation of the attacks and also took to the Senate floor to issue a blistering criticism of President Obama's handling of the situation in Benghazi.
Approached by CNN's Ted Barrett on Thursday, McCain said he had no comment on his schedule or "how I spend my time to the media." When Barrett pressed McCain, the senator became agitated.

Don't go away mad, you senile old incompetent fool, just go away. the Navy was right when they decided to get rid of "Wet Start Johnny" in 1967 (a decision you only reversed by being stupid enough to get yourself shot down, going back over the target you'd just bombed, and thereby demonstrating the truth of the Navy's decision.

56. As a Viet Nam vet ...

... I sadly agree. He was an Academy bilge rat. He was a take-off-and-crash 'pilot' who ignored mission parameters and it got him time in the Hanoi Hilton. He dumped the woman who stood by him and married faux blonde money. He's sold his soul so many times it's nothing more to him than taking a shit anymore.

[PatrynXX]

20. So was mitt.

being helped off the stage on the last debate. not a good sign.

[malaise]

21. You're way too kind

[spanone]

26. hey malaise!!!!!

[patrice]

22. I am afraid about the "decisions" he will make about our country. nt

[Ivywoods55]

24. This man's actions have gotten very scary...

very scary indeed....together anger and hatred are two scary emotions... and ...wow, just wow...this man has gotten dangerous, and he doesn't even know it.

[oldtime dfl_er]

27. trying to lay the ground for an impeachment

Mark my words. This guy is all over TV trying to spread the idea that there was a "coverup". He's desperate to lay the groundwork for a trumped up impeachment charge.

Too bad. He really was a hero 50 years ago. Now he's just a bitter old man.

[left coaster]

30. Hero? I beg to differ... everyone should read this article...

http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/make-believe-maverick-20081016

[EverHopeful]

38. Thanks for the link

As I read through the comments talking about how he used to be an honorable man, I decided I had to search out that link. He also voted with W on torture 3 times but gave such lip service to being against torture that people thought he was. Scary, deranged, a**hole--always was.

[xtraxritical]

32. A hero? lol

He only made Annapolis because of Daddy's legacy. He was in the very last percentile of his Annapolis class. He destroyed five planes and an aircraft carrier with his ego driven braggadocio and risky show off behavior. He only got away with this bullshit because of Daddy. The best thing to ever happen to the Navy was when McCain was captured by the North Vietnamese. He "spilled his guts" in captivity according to fellow captors. No more lip stick on the pig please.

[santamargarita]

28. This asshole has been unstable all his life...

he was most unstable st the controls of Naval Aircraft.

[grasswire]

31. ++ nt

[patrice]

33. I read up on that in '04 & did not feel that matter was clearly resolved at all, too many questions.

[patrice]

29. They're trying to get PO to under-cut Rice, because that'd be THE WORST thing he could do to

U.S. foreign policy.

[napkinz]

36. yep!

[davidpdx]

37. I think he's having flashbacks

from his 2008 loss.

[glinda]

45. A TRUE statement and hope they are taking steps to protect people especially the First Family.

There are others also but Sen. McInsane has lost it. He is scary unhinged. This is no joke.

[The Old Creak]

48. I know this isn't PC

But I keep thinking........."Jawbone of an ass."

[azbillyboy]

49. John McAnus....

.....Is and ALWAYS has been a complete fraud. Most of you are fortunate. You only have to read or watch this troglodyte (with apologies to trogs); I have to deal with the fact that this moron is my Senator......NOT!

McAnus and the motley crew of Kyl, Brewer, Bennett, et al firmly establish that Arizona is nothing but a widespot in the road; the "land that time forgot," or my favorite, "Mississippi with cacti.....!"

[Iwillnevergiveup]

50. Oh, but they love him on MTP

So guess that's all that matters.

52. No shit!

We missed a bullet with him & Sarah Palin, and Mitt Romney & Paul Ryan.

We must never stop working to make these asswhipes irrevelant.
