John McCain Won’t Apologize for Calling Conservatives “Crazies” – Says It’s a ‘Term of Endearment’
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 07/20/15 | Jim Hoft

Earlier this month 20,000 conservative supporters joined Donald Trump in Arizona at a campaign rally.

In response to this enormous crowd, Senator John McCain said Trump “fired up the crazies.”

McCain says he won’t apologize– On today’s Morning Joe, John McCain refused to apologize to the thousands of Arizonans attending a Trump rally that McCain called “crazies.” According to McCain, “crazies” is a “term of endearment” and a “term of affection.”

sorry dude, if you need a dictionary to tell you what a curse word is, you don’t know what it is. It’s NOT a curse word. It’s not a term of endearment either, but it’s not a curse word.

That idea is bullshit. BTW, that IS a curse word.

More fodder for Trump et al-— methinks this little tempest upon McLame is a little divine karma revisiting again. As I say ‘karma is rarely instant but it does eventually show up’.

Life or death is in the tongue. If it isn’t an edifying word about someone, it is a word curse. John McCain meant the word to be cutting and hurtful.

Okay, enough. Let’s stop feeding the Marxist Media wolf. I do have a question though. If McCain does love America & Americans, is he going to vote against Obama’s Iran Deal? Is he gonna take the lead in stopping it in the Senate? Or is he gonna side with John Kerry? So John, do you really love America and Americans? Your vote will show whether Don Trump is right about you or not.

McCain has mentioned his being a Hero about as much as Kerry.

Mccain is against lobbying because his hand was in the Keating cookie jar and he got caught.

All these years McCain has flirted with endorsing Kerry and Clinton. Working accross the aisle with Teddy K. and Chuch Schumer.

Has their ever been a war he didn’t want to risk our son’s lives in? Or was that just so his beloved Arms industry contributors could make more money?

MC Cain wanted to punish the Tea party and calls conservatives Whacko. Hey Mccain, you look who got elected to take back the house and senate from Democrats like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, mostly Tea Party people.

The GOP owes the TEA PARTY thanks not disdain.

honey, dear, sweetheart, pookie, and many other endearing terms of endearment. ‘Crazies’ is no way no how a term of endearment - affected with madness, insane. Now it may be possible that McCain suffers from senile dementia and should all instances retire immediately!

Another freeper suggested that if the citizens are hobbits, that makes McCain an Orc.

From now on to me he will be McOrc.
