Amid a speech on Washington’s self-inflicted debt crisis, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said Wednesday that the tea party’s political strategy is essentially bogus and plays into Democrats’ hands, and urged tea party Republicans to support House Speaker John Boehner’s plan to extend the debt limit for another nine months.
Describing the tea party’s strategy to force a rewrite of the Constitution by triggering a default, he concluded that their thinking was along the lines of something from “Lord of the Rings.”
“And the tea party hobbits could return to Middle Earth having defeated Mordor,” he said. “This is the kind of crack political thinking that turned Sharon Angle and Christine O’Donnell into GOP Senate nominees. The reality is, the debt limit will be raised one way or another.”
This video is from C-SPAN 2, broadcast Wednesday, July 27, 2011, as snipped by Mediaite.

McCain never misses an opportunity to side with the enemy.
Obama is the single best President I have ever seen in my lifetime, says McCain. Of course, he would say the same thing if Kermit the Frog or Rosie O’Donnell was President. The man is a pathological butt licker to whomever is in power. (sometimes I wonder if he even knows what he is saying....or, even where or who he is, for that matter.
The man needs retirement.

McCain is an idiot! Republicans to blame? Tea party to blame? Give me a break!
We’ve been warning the big spenders that a day of reckoning will come. We warned them against big spending. We warned them against stealing from our grandchildren. When Obama came into office the US had at least four trillion dollars in borrowing power. He burned through it like there was no tomorrow. Now it’s gone and he wants to burn more? And what do we have to show for it? Nothing!
The day of reckoning has arrived.
To hell with Obama! To hell with McCain! Time to put Obama in receivership, though a straitjacket would be preferable.
The man is a certified lunatic and McCain is no better.
From this point forward the Republican House should make Obama come hat in hand for every damn dollar he wants to spend!
No blank checks! The House should tightly control the spending, period!
Obama has proven he can’t be trusted with a credit card.

We laugh at you. You have a party/movement filled with traitors. I guess that means the party and ideology in question is not viable or much liked or workable or no one would betray it......

EXCELLENT retort!
Funny how McStain waited until Palin endorsed him and he got re-elected...
Hmmm...What will Palin's reaction be? When will she reject this POS? I guess if she's running for Prez, she'll remain mute about it.

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said Wednesday that the tea party’s political strategy is essentially bogus...
Once again, RINO mcStain (Mr. USS Forrestal fire) proves why this picture applies:
It used to be the leftists that had bumper-stickers that said things like "Question Authority.' Today they follow slogans from 1984:
War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.
They blindly LOVE Big Brother. They believe competition, pride & profiting from ones labor, are evil things to be banished.
Stephen King observed, "The beauty of religion mania is that it has the power to explain everything... [so] logic can be happily tossed out the window.
This describes socialists. They will ignore logic and "common sense." They will ignore REALITY. Because THEY are religious zealots...
THEIR God... is the STATE.

Wrong. McCain is mainstream Republican, and their Presidential nominee in '08. He's the face of the GOP, deal with it.

Platitudes are all you have.
You certainly don't have anything approaching an intellect.
Do you pay your bills or are you a deadbeat?
My guess is that you're on some sort of fixed income because of you own sense of entitlement but don't want anyone else to "get" there's as you do yours...

Goober, having traitors in any "movement" is a HUMAN thing, you gibbering libTURD FOOL.
But I certainly do appreciate the absurdity of a libTURD whore such as YOU talking about any OTHER set of kool-aide chugging phuckheads!
YOU libTURDS are infamous kool-aide chuggers, who have set the kool-aide chugging bar for at least a century!
BTW MORON, Jim Jones et. al. were of the LEFT.
LOL! Goober you are so F ing stoopid that you couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were on the sole.

If she wants to win. She should say that she tried to respect him. But he has gone to far. Something along those lines.
McCain and his stupid daughter can go take a flying leap.

If you see that, you're blind.
And since you refused to answer whether or not you pay your bills, the answer is obviously "no" and you're a deadbeat.

I guess that it's OK to be a "fantasy racist"?
I guess that these "fantasy racists" forget the in Tolkien's morality tale, it was a HOBBIT who SAVED the entire middle Earth?
So what person who supports SAVING CONSTITUTIONAL AMERICA would be offended at being called a HOBBIT?
I'm SURE that the tea partee movement would WELCOME ALL AMERICAN HOBBITS, just as it welcomes ALL AMERICANS NOW who love and support traditional CONSTITUTIONAL government, and individual LIBERTY.
So ...
This attempt to slur and insult the tea partee just shows how vile and STOOPID the enemies of AMERICA and AMERICANS really are.
So ........ FUCK you libTURD FILTH.
I'm PROUD to be a "HOBBIT"!
And you filth had better understand one thing, we HOBBITS are on a quest for CONSTITUTIONAL government and we will NOT fail.
