He most certainly is. That has nothing to do with his statement today regarding Graham-Cassidy. Always been a political idol of mine and it really was an honor to speak with him and pick his brain when I was a Senate intern. When he leaves the the Senate or passes away, this country will be losing a good one.

No idea what you are talking about. But I say again. It isn't a statesman's job to only represent the majority. What the hell?

And where are the Democrats who want to come to the table? They talk talk talk about "bi-partisanship," yet we got Obamacare. Democrats obstruct, they don't have solutions. Single payer?

Never thought you'd be part of the swamp. Very sad.

Once this officially dies we will see something take shape.

And where is your link to support this? I would love to hear what Democrats are doing to help solve this crisis besides obstruct everything. Give us a link.

So 5 people that want something should get what they want, no matter that the other 95 people don't want it? Damn man, what kind of government is that exactly?

You can search for bi-partisan healthcare push if you like. It isn't my job to keep hyper-partisan right wingers current on news.

I like people who don't lie to their voters. You should too.

I commend him for stepping out of the partisan hell-hole that Congress has become and voting his conscience. He is one of a handful of conservatives that I respect because the rest of them only care about "winning".


You're happy that he's preserving Obamacare. Nothing more, nothing less.

Our government system isnt pure popular vote on every issue. We elect representatives to make decisions. The constituents can vote him out or nominate a primary candidate who they think will better represent them.

Im happy that a purely political hail mary intended to undermine a potential bipartisan solution was scuttled by a man who wasnt willing to push it through with no analysis.

Want to know how this is bullshite? You keep bringing it up without giving any details. No, I won't look it up myself because you made the claim yourself, it's your job to back up your claims.

Why in the holy hell do you respect the biggest warmonger in the senate who wants endless war in every shithole country on Earth including Iran and Russia?

You really respect someone who wants countless men and women and dying to satisfy his sick lust for endless war?

You are embarrassing yourself now. You know McCain mentioned the bipartisan approach in his statement right?
You have spent more energy repeatedly begging for a link (that you will then *lolzfakenews*) rather than educating yourself on the issue.

I am enjoying the melt so feel free to carry on.
