First Harry Reid, Now RINO King McCain Is Praising McConnell’s Debt Plan…

Kiss of death part deux.

(Briefing Room) — Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) praised a backup plan by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to raise the debt ceiling.

“I strongly support Senator McConnell’s efforts to avoid a default on our nation’s debt, and the last-case emergency proposal he outlined yesterday to ensure that Republicans aren’t unduly blamed for failure to raise the debt ceiling,” McCain said in a statement on Wednesday.

McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, criticized President Obama for warning that unless the debt ceiling is raised, Social Security checks for seniors might not go out on Aug. 3, a day after the Treasury Department projects the government will default unless a deal is reached.

“The President is stoking fears among our seniors by falsely asserting that Republicans’ position on the debt talks endangers their Social Security checks,” McCain continued. “The President’s obvious strategy is to convince Americans that Republicans are to blame for the current impasse and any worst-case scenarios of default.”

    GOP aide tells Fox today’s WH meeting was “most tense of the week.” – Cantor says it “ended abruptly with POTUS walking out.”

    Cantor says POTUS became “very agitated.”

    Cantor said POTUS got agitated and said, “Don’t call my bluff. I’m going to the American people on this.” – per Fox

    Dems fire back against Cantor – say his account of meeting is not accurate – per Fox

    Dem aid tells Fox: “Congressman Cantor is the last guy who should complain about people abruptly walking out of meetings.”

    McConnell tried to explain this goofy idea to Laura Ingraham today, but didn’t convince me too much. It’s good to throw the whole mess in Obama’s lap, but giving up congressional authority is just dumb.

    Besides, it’s a little early to be making any “deals.” The Prez is about to P his pants over this; you can tell by the false rhetoric and flat out LIES he’s spewing on a daily basis. Let it get a little hotter – he’s the one who stands to get burned the most.

    CUT, CAP, AND BALANCE!!!

    FOX News just reported that Barack Obama walked out “abruptly” on Republicans today during debt talks.

    Barack Obama walked out “abruptly” today on the debt talks with Congressional leaders.

    The President wants to raise taxes and Republicans won’t let him.
    So Obama picked up his toys and walked out.

    Since 2007, McCain has just turned into the biggest douche bag ever. The old RHINO fart needs to retire.

    @Roadmaster
    You are quite correct. Why would anyone willingly give this president any more power to spend anything more money. The “old bulls” need to retire if they don’t have the guts to stop this abrogation of their responsibility. It will be interesting to see if Marco steps up.

    I’m not surprised. Where’s Lindsay Graham on this one too? It figures all the RINO’s are saying wave the white flag. Sometimes I despise McCain as much as Obama. To think, he was smart enough to choose Palin as VP pick. Go figure.

    The Pesident’s wild spending on government is the cause of the problem, but he wants to make us pay for his reckless and excessive ways. He’s destroying the US economy by saddling it with a bloated, prosperity consuming leech of a government and wants us to pay for it.

    McRINO has been nearly as instrumental as BHO in bring our country down. It should not be long now. As long as these guys are going to drive us over the cliff then they might as well put the pedal to the metal.

    BHO + McRINO = Thelma and Louise

    i hate these fossils. there is a reason the democRATs call the Republican Party, “The Stupid Party”… they’re forever with a minority mindset even when holding a majority. i’m disgusted by them.

    this is getting humorous now. people angry at juan mcsame. face it that is your republican party…mccain, mcconnell, lindsey graham, scott brown, olympia snow,ruby julie-annie (rudy in drag), gingrich,romneycare, o-boehner, log cabin republicans, the list goes on and on …rinos are the republican party!!!!! time and time again they betray you but you keep voting for these idiots. this party aids and abetts the enemy.
    as long as you keep voting for them they will continue to screw you over and over.
    they know you have been convinced that you have “nowhere else to go”… it’s a wasted vote…blah blah blah

    you complain that these people don’t have a spine. they do. they lie to you, betray you. you tell them what you want and they yell back “no”. they have a spine. when will you get a spine and stand up to them.? i know, i know the sheep have been conditioned to think it’s the lesser of two evils. but the lesser of two evils is still evil.

    you don’t have a constitutional govt because you haven’t demanded it. you keep settling for the mcains, romneys, the bushes (please don’t tell me he was a conservative look at his spending and the social issues be honest).

    feel free to fire back. i’m always attacked by commie libs and party loving republicans.

    @ tina and grizz

    those 30 yr in office blue hairs didn’t appoint themselves the office. they were voted in. perhaps even ran against someone who was an actual conservative but as it happens so often those people are deemed “unelectable”. don’t have the right name, the nice hair, the smile, the pedigree, the backing of the party, or the ability to lie to your face. it’s better to have someone with an R next to their name no matter what the cost.
    if you’ll vote for them they become electable. we need to stop holding our noses when we go into vote. vote for someone/something not against someone. look where it’s gotten us.
