SEN. McCAIN: Mm-hmm.
MR. GREGORY: ...that was passed for healthcare reform in Massachusetts. How is this a partisan bill?
SEN. McCAIN: I have been part of bipartisan negotiations for many, many years, and I have a record of bipartisan results. This was not bipartisan. The way you have bipartisan negotiations, you sit down across the table, as we did with Ted Kennedy, as I've done with many other members, and you say, "OK, here's what I want, here's what you want. We'll adhere to your principles, but we'll make concessions." This bill was written by Democrats, for Democrats, and then they tried--and I understand power--what they tried to do was peel off a couple of Republicans, as he did with the stimulus bill, and call it bipartisan. It's not bipartisan. I know bipartisanship, and with all due respect to any of our other observer, let's start over, then. It's not too late.
MR. GREGORY: Is there one thing...
SEN. McCAIN: It's not too late. Why don't we sit down together and say, "OK, let's start with medical malpractice reform"? We agree, I think, fundamentally on that. Why don't we address going across state lines? Why don't we go across many of the positive proposals that we Republicans have had, too, and maybe we can find common ground?
McCain is such a nasty politically correct little ass.
I hope the voters of Arizona FINALLY rid us of this s.o.b.
Mccain is a big government socialist himself not a radical.
If the good people of Arizona elect Mccain we are cooked ...
Surely you don’t expect Juan to criticize the guy he ENDORSED!!
RINOs like McCain are Socialists. Obama is a Communist. Both are Marxists and support the centralization of power away from the individual. The only differences are how the plan is executed and how much they take from the individual to be able to “serve” us better.
No prob!
"Communist" works for me!
“I’m, I’m not ready to do that”
Of course not, unless it is another Republican, especially JD Hayworth.
Progressive brothers don’t call each other Socialists...they just go about getting there in different ways and means. =.=
McDemocrat and Soetoro are two sides of a two headed coin called Socialism. McLoser can’t call out Barry ‘cause they BOTH are SOCIALISTS.
I wish this could reach the millions of voters it will take to STOP this from the results at the end of this POWERFUL POWERPOINT! We have little to go!
