McCain Ought To Get A Clue Here.....

McConnell only was thinking about getting this passed today - he did not care one iota about the health of McCain. McCain just had brain surgery. He could have died on the plane ride into D.C. McConnell was willing to take a chance on that happening just to get this passed today. He pressured McCain to take that chance. McCain's ego got the better of him and he bought McConnell's line of flattery. You can just imagine what McConnell said to McCain to take that chance.

so the old hero in him thought - one more chance.

Meanwhile anyone who thought highly of that is an idiot and the rest of us hate him and his legacy.

Never forget his choice for Veep for instant perspective.

He does what he's told.

It wasn't McCain's ego, it was McCain's ideology. McCain is a far right republican, and anyone who believes otherwise need only look at his voting record
