Senators Head to Ukraine Empty-Handed (McCain mouths off)
National Journal ^ | March 14, 2014 | Sarah Mimms

The infighting has been particularly vexing for McCain, who took to the Senate floor Thursday, after senators had wrapped up their votes for the week, with an impassioned screed against his colleagues who are planning to vote against the aid package over the IMF provision.

"You can call yourselves Republicans," McCain continued. "That's fine, because that's your voter registration. Don't call yourself Reagan Republicans. Ronald Reagan would never—would never—let this kind of aggression go unresponded to by the American people." snip

McCain was later joined on the floor for a lengthy, heated exchange among several of his GOP colleagues, including Sens. Jeff Sessions of Alabama and Ted Cruz of Texas, who oppose the package because of the IMF inclusion, as well as by Murphy and Corker.

McCain also took Republican Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming and others to task for arguing in favor of bringing up the House-passed legislation, which lacks sanctions against Russia.

comparing senators to a president is how useless this man is.

He should compare RR to BO and quit attacking republicans.

Last week McCain won the award as the least trusted senator, he he continue to prove it.

I guess McCain is going there to look for more Muslim Terrorists he can fraternize with. Typical ‘maverick’

Ronald Reagan wouldn’t try to have Ukraine join NATO. He wasn’t that stupid.

Had to read that twice. LOL!!

McCain is in full rant mode on the Senate floor right now.
Correction: I believe I am hearing a replay of yesterday (CSPAN radio)

Don't worry about it. McCain, quite possibly the worst airplane driver ever, will be unable to find the Ukraine. If someone else is driving, he'll get off at the wrong stop.

Remember, this is a guy who used to get lost over the Chesapeake.
