Why was it necessary for Senator John McCain to use profanity when replying to Senator John Cornyn’s comments about his absence in the Senate, especially on the “compromise amnesty” bill? Remember when citizens sent bricks to Congress to build a wall on the border? Perhaps it’s time to send a bar of soap to the Godfather of Amnesty, John McCain. A little bit of soap in his mouth just might calm the old guy down. He says he may be the “last man standing” regarding the war in Iraq. He soon may be the “first to go” of the GOP presidential candidates. It’s not nice to use profanity, especially the “F” word in front of your contemporaries. One has to wonder if he was perhaps having a senior moment and just lost it?

McCain can use the F word; he is not god's mouthpiece; Bush is god's mouthpiece and is precluded from saying "It just a goddamn piece of paper," alluding to the Constitution.

McCain did go to bed with Falwell to garner votes recalling that Jesus in John 13 was interrupted by Judas with a man on his "breast," giving Judas "sop" and sent him out of the room.

To each his own; I respect "To each his own." See ya'll June 2 at the People's Fair when I will park your bike between noon and three.

Too bad that F-bomb was not picked up on live T.V. so John could be fined with the same legislation he voted for during the Janet Jackson Nipplegate hysteria. Now that would be ironic and funny.

The F bomb is the straightest of the straight talk aboard McCain's Straight Talk Express. Few words are ever more clear than F%$# you.

It pained me to see John McCain in the GOP prez debates, with so many draft-dodgers in attendance. With the exception of John, it looked like a draft-dodgers reunion. I was surprised John didn't seek the definition of "Good Mormon". Mitt's dad (cabinet member in Nixon's administartion), arranged for him to "cut and run" from Vietnam, but he gleefully scampered off to his Mormon Mission. I want to know what tasks in the presidential sworn oath of office, that a "good Mormon", is excluded from doing.

McCain is a dinosaur and should fade off into the sunset WITH the other dinosaur Ted Kennedy!!

He did serve his country well, POW status.

But now he is trying to sell out his country with his pro-amnesty stance!!!
