Schumer: McCain Ranks as Great as Ted Kennedy
By Bridget Johnson July 28, 2017

WASHINGTON -- Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) today declared Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to have joined the ranks of late Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) when it comes to greatness in Congress.

The senator who was defeated by President Obama in his 2008 quest for the White House stepped in to cast the deciding vote to kill Senate Republicans' last-gasp effort to repeal Obama's signature healthcare legislation. Audible gasps arose from the Dem side of the chamber in the wee hours this morning when McCain walked forward and cast a loud "no" vote -- the 51st vote to kill a "skinny repeal" bill also opposed by Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Susan Collins (R-Maine).

He has a point, Ted Kennedy was a great liar too, just like McCain.

LOL hahaha, just what I was thinking. In Lefty-land bubble world this is a compliment. In the rest of the 'real world', comparing McCain to Kennedy is about as far from a compliment as you can get.


It is like saying, 'McCain is a wonderful lying, duplicitous, weasel! The best there ever was!'

I can find nothing positive to say about this man.

Epitome of the rationale to repeal the 17th Amendment.

The only legacy McCain cares about is to be well thought of by the statists in DC.

Report: Clinton-Linked Company, George Soros Donated to McCain Institute


A foundation bearing the name of Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), the McCain Institute for International Leadership, has reportedly accepted contributions from left-wing billionaire George Soros and Bill Clinton-linked company Teneo — the latest donor controversy to hit the non-profit.
The Daily Caller reports that the institute accepted donations of as much as $100,000 from Soros and from Teneo — a company co-founded by businessman and Clinton-ally Doug Band — raising concerns of similarities to the controversial Clinton Global Initiative. The Caller notes that Band helped President Clinton pick up well-paid speaking gigs.


The Caller also reports that among the donations to the group is a $100,000 gift from a Moroccan state-run phosphate company operating in the Western Sahara, territory which Morocco seized in 1975 in defiance of United Nations resolutions.


Morocco has been accused of violating human rights and claims that its state-owned companies exploit natural resources and treat its workers inhumanely. But the outlet reports that in 2011, McCain praised the King of Morocco and called the country a “positive example to governments across the Middle East and North Africa.”

We should not of course, take pleasure in anyone's demise but over the long run, it's difficult to see McCain being there, a year or two from now.

Governor Ducey will appoint someone, most likely a staunch conservative like Kelli Ward, to fill in McCain's spot when he is no longer able to do his duties.  This is something to watch and perhaps, this healthcare fiasco can be dealt with.

that is not the way it works.  Just because he is no longer 'able to do his duties' does not disqualify him from his Senate position.

There are 4 ways he is no longer in the Senate

1.  His term ends and is not re-elected.
2. He is removed by the Senate.
3. He voluntarily steps down.
4. God calls him home.

So, Chuckie, what were you saying about McCain back in 2008 when he was running against your God, Obama?

McCain should never have had the opportunity to become a prisoner of war he should have been booted from the service before he had a chance to take that last flight.

And the only reason he wasn't is his lineage.
