McCain: Republicans should've stopped booing (McCain attacks Republicans)
Politico ^ | 2011-10-02

Posted on 10/02/2011 7:56:51 AM PDT by rabscuttle385

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Sunday the Republican presidential contenders should've stopped the crowd at a recent GOP debate from booing a gay soldier.

McCain, certainly no stranger to presidential debates, added that in the heat of the moment, candidates often have a tough time reacting.

"I do," McCain said on CBS's "Face the Nation," when asked if the candidates should've stopped the reaction. "But a lot of times, when you’re in a debate, you’re thinking about what you’re going to say, what the question is going to be. It’s hard to react sometimes. But I’m sure… I would bet that every Republican on that stage did not agree with that kind of behavior."

Charlie Crist is a John McCain Republican.

Both do whatever whenever necessary to support left wing freaks when they need it the most.

It doesn’t matter. The MSM wouldn’t make a big deal out of it if a Dem debate questioner id’d themselves as a NAMBLA member and got applauded I bet.

....

Apparently one person boo’d and others told him to shut up.

In other words it was a non-event.

I'm glad you brought up the economy Mr. Obama.   Isn't your campaign's National Finance Chairwoman Penny Pritzker -- and didn't her Chicago Family-owned bank FAIL in 2001 from doing sub-prime lending for ACORN?
--NOT Juan McCain
 
FAIL.

It’s time for McCain to take his Haldol and sit on his rocking chair in the nursing home.

Has anyone asked the question if the people who booed were even Republican? I didn’t watch the debate so I am unsure of the context of the situation, but even from this distance, I smell a Rat.

I HATE FACEBOOK!!!!

I don’t want any part of that crap, they are following people. They work closely with Obozo.

 
"...Same way as in a small town of Hua in South Vietnam; several thousands of Vietnamese were executed in one night when the city was captured by [the] Viet Cong for only two days; and American CIA could never figure out - how could [the communists] possibly know each Individual, where he lives, where to get him; and [in order that they] would be arrested in one night basically in four hours before dawn, put on a van, driven out of the city limits and shot.
 
The answer is very simple.  Long before communists occupy the city, there was extensive network of informers; local Vietnamese citizens who knew absolutely everything about people who are instrumental in public opinion - including Barbers and Taxi Drivers.  Everyone who was sympathetic to United States was executed.  Same thing was done under the guidance of the Soviet Embassy in Hanoi, and same thing I was doing in New Delhi. To my horror, I discovered that in the files were people who were doomed to execution.  There were names of pro-Soviet Journalists, with whom I was personally friendly."

Can't criticize a queer because he wears a uniform?

Since when does does someone become immune from criticism because he's wearing a uniform?

If he stood up and praised Osama bin Laden, are we all expected to bow our heads, bite our tongues and accept that too?

And the media is STILL missing the point

The audience was reacting to the idiocy of THE QUESTIONS more than the answers from on-stage

Guess John McCain, son of a four star admiral and grandson of another four star admiral, doesn't like getting negative feedback.

The Republic has gotten itself in dire straights because of political correctness and protected subspecies. A biological term to this problem is lack of negative feedback.

Negative feedback? That is the term that is applied to neural signals that tells you where you are in the world. Case examples of failed or lacking negative feedback range from Parkinson's disease to a young child learning to walk.

Want to personally experience lack of negative feedback? Get some serious dental work and go out for a steak dinner before the Novocaine wears off. You don't know where your tongue and interior mouth are and bite down on them accordingly.

IMHO that lesson also applies to our body politic. Give me more boos and less PC so those running for high office understand where the bulk of the nation is; not just the loud, obnoxious, minority that the LMSM is pushing.

Well ole Faux RINO (he can now be called a full fledge Leftist Dummie) has finally slithered out from under the rock.

Guess who REALLY pushed the end of DADT.

I still have my doubts that the guy was REALLY in the MILITARY.

I hope all of the people (1) that booed are happy the lefties have yet another NON-issue to hit us with.

No one booed until the soldier asked about a law that had been passed at night during a lame duck Congress against the American peoples’ will. They were booing the law, not the soldier.

I have posted this link elsewhere, but I think it is a very important (brief - 6 or 7 minutes!) video which reminds us of the danger we are in. It is about the subversion of America’s moral fiber for over the past 50 years. Many here are familiar with many of the points made, but it is an excellent recap by a credible source.

When I saw the words of McCain quoted in the article regarding the treatment of a homosexual soldier, I knew I had to post this, because this issue is directly addressed in the video. Draw your own conclusions after viewing this, where McCain stands.
