What did this McStain say this time?
“Anyone who is running for president and who gets to choose who the [debate] moderator is,” McCain said, using that ridiculous Solemn Voice of his. “That is the destruction of the free press, as we know it.”
First off, destroying the “press as we know it” is crucially important to our democracy. I’m all in favor of destroying the “press as we know it.” In fact, I’ve dedicated my career to it. The “press as we know it” is the most corrupt institution allowed to operate legally in America.
Moreover, Trump isn’t “choosing” the moderator any more than a trial attorney chooses the jury. Asking that a biased and unacceptable juror or moderator be removed is not “choosing.”
Riddle me this, Senator McCain:
We are in the second or third cycle of Democrats refusing to debate on Fox News, and somehow our democracy still stands.
The Republican National Committee has, for good reason, booted NBC News from the debates, and somehow our democracy still stands.
!snip!
This has nothing to do with Trump. That he happens to be in the story in order to illustrate the problems we have with a sitting senator is irrelevant.
McCain is an asshole.
“McCain is an asshole.”
And “despise” is not a strong enough word.
As horribly terribly destructive obama has been, I am not convinced McCain wouldn’t have been even worse.
McCain is an asshole
(I just like typing that;)0
Build the Dang Fence lied the fucking asshole.
Is he just about the worst?
“The Esteemed Senator Asshole From Arizona”
Someones in a generous mood.
As a V/Nam vet I can assure all, J Effing Kerry and McStain are two peas in a pod. Two losers used the media to become some kind of superstars. They just chose ideologically different fawning audiences.
Neither one is a “hero”.
No, asshole, your Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 was “the destruction of the free press, as we know it.”
Hey!!! “ESTEEMED” is RESERVED for ME! (I’m serving it up)
I’m torn.
does that photo of McCain
look more like
the “before” Bernie Sanders
OR
the “after” Zombie?!
This comment from the article says it all:
“Thank heaven our current frontrunner doesn’t take advice from those who lose presidential elections.”
The press has no right to destroy you, and they have destroyed thousands of people. Since when is it incumbent upon anyone to give an interview to the press or be questioned by them for them to twist what you have said. They are liars, every one of them.
Furthermore, it took balls for him to say that after the Press destroyed Sarah Palin and the continue to do so to this day.
Awww … well bless his heart …
eat shit and die, John … you’re a national disgrace.
I can only hope FDR in Hell persuades his host to crank up the fires when this shitstain McCain arrives…damn him for eternity!!
And take your bastard spawn Graham with you.
“The “press as we know it” is the most corrupt institution allowed to operate legally in America.
No, I think that would be the American Bar Association, but the “press” would definitely be near the top of any “most corrupt in America” list.
And when we destroy the Rino establishment as we know it, McStain will be out of a job.
McCain the master baiter, speaking as a master debater.
Funny John, your over inflated self esteem is laughable.
That “Solemn voice” of his is the result of hours of training.
It’s fake.
This is the douche who was having dinner with Obama and called Ted Cruz a “wacko bird”
He’s not a war hero. He got caught and that’s the way he became a war hero in the minds of non-thinkers.
Keep it up Aggie!
The more you type that, the more I up-vote you.
“E-steamed”? I prefer “e-baked”.
Isn’t that asshole pushing up daisies yet?!
I guess we must be patient.
What’s the OPPOSITE of a hero?
That’s what you’ve got with those two. No better than jane fonda they are.
Just like Trump said !
Aw, shut up McCain. We all know you suck the dick of the press..for free.
Agreed. But to tweak what you said, it took NO balls.
The only balls that half pint has been familiar with, he’s had to share with Reggie (and Boehner).
McLame gives assholes a bad name.
“Free Press” my ass.
Shit man, they’re not even reasonable!!
Whadya smoking John?
Lindsay’s pole?
McCain was the only person evacuated from USS Forrester fire (130+ killed) probably because they feared the crew would kill him for starting it with a prank wetstart on his jet.
merc. I heard stories that he was a bit of a wise ass, or asshole, or sumthin like that?
Meanwhile, Megyn Fonda is gunning Rinos with immigrants and muslims over at the FOX news “debate”
A free press? You get what you pay for.
John McCain is an affront to every Vietnam Vet who FOUGHT for his country.
Do you really think the Khmer Rouge mistreated little Johnny. they probably cut his meat for him while the rest of us ate dirty water rice soup.
Give me a break. This guy is a loser.
