Fair point. And if there's no video, this may be like a tree falling in a forest when there's no one around.

From what I've heard McCain is legendary for having a nasty temper.

[Rummyfan]

No it does fit his demanor and character exactly. It's not the first time he has verbally lashed out at a Congressional colleague in such a manner.

And it's not very presidential!

[Jim Robinson]

I heard the same report on FOX News.

Let me say this in a nice way.

You don't know what the F-word you are talking about.

Have a nice day.

There IS no article. This was reported minutes ago on FOX by a correspondent.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Freepers that have seen McCain in person at Townhall meetings say he’s off the wall and that he loses it.

LOL   You don't know McCain very well.

One cannot link to a comment in a live news broadcast.

This completely fits his character, demeanor, and temper. I'm sure there's lots of folks on this site that remember McCain's meltdown and angrily hanging up the phone during an interview by Rush Limbaugh during the 2000 primaries. Only someone with ZERO control over their temper would lose it and hang up on Rush Limbaugh during an interview. McCain's next adventure will be the "fairness doctrine" to get rid of those pesky talk radio jerks that make the peasants feel uppity and start asking hard questions of Senators.

You don’t know McCain.

Sure it fits his character and demeanor.

His anger issues are legendary and dogged him in ‘00 too.

Did you just fall off the turnip truck?

You’re kidding right? McCain is RENOWNED for this type of behavior!

I also saw Major Garrett report this on Special Report with Brit Hume.

[Political Junkie Too]

I heard the report, too, but I think the #1 post got the story backwards.

I thought I heard Garrett report that McCain was mad a Cornyn because McCain felt the bill had changed from the original McCain-Kennedy bill that he worked on. Cornyn said that it was McCain's fault for missing all the negotations because he was too busy running for President. That's when McCain dropped the F-bomb on Cornyn.

His outburst was witnessed by multiple U.S. Senators and staffers, and is well documented. The Drudge Report also has a story about it, as well as the Washington Compost.
