Can someone help me out here? I'm trying to figure out which one is McCain, which one is Napalitano and which it the other one!

Arizona Sen. John McCain and his Republican colleagues have long said they will only join Democrats on a comprehensive immigration reform deal if and when the southwest border is secured.
Now McCain says he wants to develop a mutually-agreeable set of benchmarks with Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano for what level of security is sufficient and how to determine when that goal has been met.
“We have to agree on certain criteria on what is successful securing of our border,” McCain said today during a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing. “I think it would be very helpful to all of us if you could lay out what is necessary, what assets need to be devoted and what statistics could show us that the border is being secured, and at that time I think we could move forward with comprehensive immigration reform.”

Juan use to say “when the border state governors certify that the border is secure”. But NOW he says there must be a mutually agreeable set of benchmarks with DHS and Big Sis.
Why the change. Oh yea, now we have different governors of Arizona and New Mexico whose standards for certifying the border as being secure might be much higher than their predecessors: Bill Richardson and the already mentioned Big Sis.
This is just more disingenuous maneuvering and head faking by the lying weasel Juan McCain. Typically pathetic.
Reform is not needed, John. Enforcement is.
Ping!
And, McVain sells America out again.
What a surprise.
i’m convinced that he was brainwashed by the communists in Nam!
He’s working to destroy this nation one small step at a time!
I always loved that graphic. It defines McCain to a “T”.
The election is over, and he’s gone back to his mavericky ways.
Durn it...but I’m not surprised.
