America was never going to default. What scares McCain and his fellow criminals is they might have to furlough their own staffs because of the massive cuts required by hitting the brick wall of the debt ceiling.
The only time he gets energized, even emotional is when he is fighting with conservatives.
This freak has lost his mind. Typical of Democrats but a Republican? Wow!
No kidding. These *******s have been running amok with our credit cards spending like drunken sailors for at least 20 years and all of sudden THEY are the geniuses with all the answers?? PLEASE
Look, the reality is that the elected Republicans and the Democrats are in fundamental agreement on the following: The Money Power of Congress includes the creation of fiat, credit-based money; the proper function of the Federal Government is to expand the monetary base, tax incomes, and fund “programs” that redistribute incomes from work and employ otherwise unemployable people.
The reason the “Tea Party” is under such concerted attack from both elected Republicans and Democrats is that they (possibly) do not share these fundamental premises, which are the foundation of the post-1933 American state.
The elected Republicans, and the Democrats, also share the belief that even a reduction in rates of increase in “programs” will trigger violence on an almost unimaginable scale.
The reason they don’t do what normal, psychologically healthy people would do under threat - say, “Bring it on and we will shoot you down in the gutter” - is because elected Republicans and Democrats also share the belief that socialism is basically RIGHT and that capitalism is fundamentally WRONG.
So, it is wrong to say that the Republicans are “folding” - they do not share your fundamental beliefs and they never did.
They are just doing what they must to keep their dying world alive for a few more years.
Can you say Bob Michel? But, it's more like 50 to 70 years.
LOL...It didn’t take McCain long to stab the whole R party(and country) in the back. Do you have Palin’s tea party quote regarding McCain?
fire the old fool
Nothing new. McCain has been stabbing Republicans in the back for decades. Dems can always count on him as a utility player for their team.
McCain gives a good recommendation.
“John, I respect what you did for our country, but it is time to retire”

With all due respect; I’ve grown weary of folks always feeling the need to preface their comments to this A$$hole with: “I applaud his service, but...blah...blah...blah”
I could give a rats A$$ about his military service! It has nothing to do with this back-stabbing creeps attacks on our free speech and borders!
You and others can feel free to continue giving this creep kudos for his service, but I no longer feel the obligation.
FUJM!
I don't know but I hear old McAmnesty's favorite drink these days is vinegar and water.
>Former GOP presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, who this week referred to Tea Party lawmakers as “hobbits,” publicly criticized Pennsylvania’s Pat Toomey Sunday during an unusual unscripted debate on the Senate floor.<
IIRC, the Hobbits won.
Col. Bui Tin, a former Senior Colonel in the North Vietnamese Army (he had actually interrogated McCain and other U.S. prisoners) testified before the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs in 1992. At least 55 American POWs were murdered by their interrogators and guards while in North Vietnamese prisoner of war camps. During a break in the hearing, Sen. McCain moved to where Col. Bui Tin was seated and warmly embraced him as if he were a long lost brother.
Not everyone who wore a uniform is worthy of admiration.
Yeah! He did a lot for the country. Destroyed 5 planes and even got shot down .
He was shot down because we was not supposed to be where he was, if not for his Fathers rank he would have been thrown out of the service long before he was a “hero”
