(AP) BENGHAZI, Libya - U.S. Sen. John McCain, one of the strongest proponents in Congress of the American military intervention in Libya, said Friday that Libyan rebels fighting Moammar Gadhafi’s troops are his heroes.

(snip)

When Obama acted with limited congressional consultation, McCain - who was the 2008 Republican presidential contender running against Obama - defended the president, saying he couldn’t wait for Congress to take even a few days to debate the use of force. If he had, "there would have been nothing left to save in Benghazi," the rebels’ de-facto capital.

McCain said the rebels were his ‘heros.’

Can we survive?

Well, I guess the only good thing about Obama winning is that McCain didn’t become POTUS.

2008 was the worst election EVER.

I hope the peace sign flashing, pizza eating “rebels” continue to get their asses kicked. They can request the SEIU and AFL-CIO bring in some of their “brothers” for reinforcements. America could sure stand to lose some of those bastards.

Johnny McInsane needs to go home and sell beer for his wife.

Why the heck do these people not recognize when they are due to go home?

PLEASE send McAmnesty to an old-folks home.

Here he is cheering for the future Muslim Brotherhood/Al Queda leaders of Libya. Our terrorist enemies of the day after tomorrow.

Idiot.

“Certainly a no fly zone,” Palin said. “I hate to say, jeez, more troops on the ground. You know send more of our brave young men and women over there in Libya. When yes, 41 years of Gadhafi. He’s got to go.”

I will try to be kind. He is 75 years old and he has a lot of plaque on his brain. He has dementia.

Mrs. Palin was one of the first politicos to call for US involvement in Libya. She and McCain fit together nicely.

He got my vote but I’m not sorry McCain failed in his bids to become president.

Then his daughter “Megaton” McCaine needs to gently but firmly drag his tired old behind out of there.
