(81,220 posts)I think we should all hang this around mccain's neck. Forever. You said it, Senator. You built this. And thank you for delivering two more new Democrats to us! And one of them is from the older white male category.
Let's never forget this. And anyone who stands with him - like their little GOP girlie kelly ayotte and certainly lindsey graham! Their next Democratic opponents should use this over and over and over. Immediately following a clip or montage of them standing at the mic or side-by-side somewhere in public with john mccain. He could well become a Typhoid john.
This is reprehensible. VIVID living proof that the GOP loves to sneer. To kick 'em when they're down. To grandstand REGARDLESS of the discourteous or heartless optics it creates. Because the rigid ideology, and indeed the grandstanding itself, is more important to these assholes. mccain should have to pay a price for this. It's just simply disgusting and reprehensible and an OUTRAGE that he would speak so cavalierly and cold-heartedly to such a citizen. Well, hell, to ANY citizen whether they were personally impacted by gun violence or not. But to a grieving mother - I mean, HOW DARE YOU, john mccain? SHAME on you!!!
The following well-known quote applies quite aptly to john mccain now, too: "Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?"
