Senator John McCain lashed out at fellow Republican Ted Cruz on Wednesday over a Nazi appeasement comparison he made during his all-night, anti-Obamacare marathon on the U.S. Senate floor.
McCain, a Vietnam veteran and former prisoner of war, said the comparison was inappropriate. He said he had taken Cruz aside privately to tell him, and got a response he did not like: Cruz told him his appeaser reference applied not to distinguished members of the Senate but only media "pundits."
"I resoundingly reject" Cruz's comments, said McCain, a senior Republican and former presidential candidate.
"I think it's wrong and I think it's a disservice to those who stood up and shouted at the top of their lungs that we cannot appease and that we must act," he said.

What a POS. How does he keep getting elected?
Sure sounds like satire....
John McCain didn’t, can’t, and will not lay a glove on Ted Cruz. Just that simple.
Ted Cruz listened to America. John McCain listens to the voices in his head.
How did we nominate this fool in 2008?
So why does McC want to appease Obama now?
One can only hope the good people of Arizona throw this
turncoat out come the next election.
McCain can’t take Ted Cruz to the woodshed. McCain is washed up, done.
McCain knew his only chance to win in 2008 was to swing for the fences, so he selected a true conservative, Sarah Palin, as his running mate. She gives one of the best convention speeches ever in American politics, and for a brief time the GOP ticket takes the lead. Then McCain’s inner circle of hacks works incessantly to undermine Gov. Palin with the political opposition, the media, and the American people. And the predictable result is a defeat at the hands of a weak, unqualified, homosexual Communist and his village idiot VP pick.
McCain graduated fifth from the bottom of his class at Annapolis. His claim to fame is that he is the son & grandson of admirals, was shot down over Vietnam, and spent 5+ years as a POW. Oh, and he was the only ‘Pub who shamed himself in the Keating Five scandal, yet managed to avoid prison time.
As a human being and a politician, he has been an abject failure. How he fools the citizens of Arizona every six years with his B.S. is beyond me.
Arizona obviously has its share of low-information voters.
McLaime should change parties and be done with it.
This old man needs a large fenced pasture.
“I resoundingly reject” John McCain.
TC
MCCain, a vietnam traitor and vietnamese john...
...but the American people embrace them, you senile old coot.
Juan McLame never took his own daughter to the woodshed, and could NEVER take Sen. Cruz there. McLame is a lost cause who needs to either retire, or be replaced.
McCain is a dangerous fraud. There is no law that prevents the good citizens of Arizona from organizing a recall. His fervent desire to support the rebels in Syria and lead us into war is enough reason to remove this man from office.
McCain is an angry wacko-bird.
The consequence of 'open' primaries...
And boringly typical of Rooters.
