My Friend,
Earlier this week when the Senate was asked to vote on confirming Loretta Lynch as the next Attorney General of the United States, I voted no.
During her confirmation hearing before the Judiciary Committee, Ms. Lynch stated her belief that the President's recent executive actions on immigration were "reasonable" and "constitutional."
My Friend, I could not support anyone to be the highest law enforcement official in America who supports the President's clearly unconstitutional actions. That's why I cast my vote "NO."
The job of the U.S. Attorney General is to represent the people of the United States and to "do justice." It is not to serve as a cheerleader or policy advocate for the president - that is what Loretta Lynch's comments show that she would be.
The security of our nation depends on the steps we take today. You can count on me to always fight for a better, stronger, safer America.
It has been the great honor of my life to work for our shared values in Washington. Thank you for your commitment to our nation and your continued support. I am most appreciative.
Sincerely,
John McCain
Get your BS straight. What do you have against Cruz? I’m guessing your a Paulbot.
You’re
I expect I’ll get that same e-mail any moment now from Juan.
He typically sends them soon after he’s done something that appears to be Conservative.
Cindy should have put him in a home long ago.
Exactly.
paulbot???
oh hell no...
i really liked cruz, he had my backing..
when the chips were down, he took his toys and went home..
no way to put a positive spin on that..
i want a guy that when the chips are down, he will roll up his sleeves, get dirty if he has to and FIGHT...
ted proved to me he is NOT that guy..
scott walker was my second choice..
he just moved to the front of the line.
I think Johnson voted Yes for both.
Yeah, he was assured that turtleneck didn’t need his vote so he covered his butt. Seems to happen every 6 years for some unknown reason.
You’re way off base on Cruz. He was the ONLY senator fighting against the cloture vote for weeks. Do some research and get Ted’s explanation of what unfolded. He COULDNT be there for the final vote, everyone already knew it wouldn’t matter and when you aren’t present it IS considered a NO vote.
To say Cruz isn’t a fighter is just ridiculous.
