RE :“In its current form, I do not,” McCain said Wednesday when asked if he supports the measure, the Associated Press reports.
McCain had previously said it would be “catastrophic” for Congress to turn down Obama’s request. While Obama won the support of House GOP leaders on Tuesday, McCain’s opposition could make it harder to bring other Republican foreign policy hawks aboard. On the flip side, it may make it easier for Obama to win support from war-weary Democrats.”

McCain wants either another Iraq or another Libya. He is demanding that Obama do regime change, obviously after bombing Libya was a great success in his eyes as was Iraq. Another McCain idea (Libya) ,

Tossing a few cruise missiles as Dems want to do isnt enough and he's scared a resolution could bind Obama later. (what if one fails?? Obama can still do what he wants)

No one has considered that Syria’s Air Defense systems were supplied by Russia, and probably manned by Russians. What will happen when we start killing Russians??

Rebuffing Obama, McCain a No-Vote on Syria

Sen. John McCain pulled his support Wednesday for the Senate resolution authorizing limited strikes in Syria, a blow to President Barack Obama’s campaign to get congressional approval for military action in the war-torn country.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

I question whether this is a blow and a rebuff to Obama. This may be more of the good cop/bad cop routine that Obama and McCain have been carrying on for weeks.

I got McCain’s number long ago.

Here’s how a phony conservative preserves his “conservative rating”.

If a measure is clearly going to pass, he votes with the conservatives. If a measure clearly is not going to pass, he votes with the conservatives. If his vote is needed, though, then he votes with the Democrats and concocts some phony conservative-sounding reason for doing so.

He will always sound like he is on your side and he will always stab you in the back when you most need him.

This man is insane. He’s withholding his support because the resolution is too weak.

Why does he want to constantly employ our military in every hellhole around the world?

This isn’t being hawkish, this is freakin’ weird.

[DoughtyOne]

McCain, McCain, McCain...
Looks down shaking head...

[austinaero]

WTH??? Geeez,,McCain has completely lost his marbles. How does he know what’s in the current bill,,he’s too busy playing poker...

Or is it ‘porker’?

[DoodleDawg]

The resolution, fleshed out Tuesday by Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez and Republican Sen. Bob Corker, who together head the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, puts a 90-day limit on action and forbids American boots on the ground.

So what's McCain's objection? That the war won't be long enough or that we won't be killing off ground troops?

[LibLieSlayer]

mcinsane wants full out thermonuclear war.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Preferably by a senile old man with a poker app on his phone.
