Re: McCain. What a poor advert for America

OK. He's a senator from Arizona. Do you have any idea what that means, RJ? It means that the people of Arizona, and ONLY the people of Arizona, can either vote him in for another term or vote for somebody to replace him. The people of the other 49 states don't get to vote on the issue.
Now, while we're about it: Do you mean to tell me, RJ, that only America has ever had clowns in office? The UK has never, in all of its long existence, put a person in office who should not be there? Nobody from the UK has ever publicly embarrassed your nation? That would be remarkable if it were true. It's not, as it happens. You probably have office-holders right now that you would gladly pay to keep their mouths shut so they wouldn't say anything else that's foolish. It's the nature of human government regardless of the form it takes that sooner or later a clown gets into public office and embarrasses both himself and his office.
