Well, crap
Sadly - unsurprising
So I'm reading Instapundit and I come across this article quoting from an inteview Senator John McCain did. Go read the article and decide whether it's too harsh to say that the man has lost it...
He's a potential presidential candidate. And I already had issues about his "campaign reform". But a man who thinks "I would rather have a clean government than one where quote First Amendment rights are being respected, that has become corrupt. If I had my choice, I'd rather have the clean government," has no business being in the Oval Office. I would rather vote for Hillary Clinton (who at least has shown a little bit of understanding about the realities of national security), with all of her many faults, than a man who would trample the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.
My only hope is that he has so far been proven unsuccessful in running as a Republican for the office of President.
