McCain slams Cruz's call for religious test for refugees
MSN News ^ | November 17, 2015 | Alexander Bolton

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Tuesday panned the idea of favoring Christian refugees from Syria over Muslims, delivering a rebuttal to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), a GOP presidential candidate.

McCain said using a religious test on Syrian refugees, especially children, makes no sense.

“I don’t think any child, whether they are Christian or whether they are atheist or whether they are Buddhist, that we should make a distinction,” McCain said. “My belief is that all children are God’s children.”

McCain is far more upset with Senator Cruz than with ISIS and other Muslim terrorists.

John McCain IS THE ENEMY.

Remember, this ass-hat was for helping the Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda.


After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding
this to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our
turn is coming again soon. We stand united against
Islamic extremists.


Some music for reflection if the mood strikes you.

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

Who is McCain? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of him. Is he someone important? Should I listen to what he has to say ?

Put it to a vote McPutz. We’ll see how many Americans agree with you.

This is more proof that the establishment hates and fears the outsiders far more than they do Obama and the progressives who are destroying this country and leaving us all in danger.

Given the amount of contempt Obama heaps on the establishment it is really pathetic.

Take a hike McCain, do the country a favor and retire.

We’re not being attacked by terrorists that are Christians, atheists or Buddhists, they’re radical Islamists you idiot.

Fine we will take the Christian children and any orphaned children and place them in Christian homes.

Happy Crazy McCain

Of course McCain has a wife worth hundreds of millions of dollars and never has to worry about radical Muslims moving in next door to him.

In short: STFU McAmnesty and STFD!
