Busted! John McCain caught playing video poker during the hearing on Syria

September 3, 2013

 Today the Senate Committee on Foreign relations met to discuss Barack Obama’s plan to attack Syria. One of the people who has been most vocal on attacking Syria, besides Barack Obama, has been John McCain. In fact the only problem John McCain has with Barack Obama’s proposal is that it does not go far enough. He apparently wants to deeply involve the United States in yet another war.

  John McCain is so passionate about this issue that during the meeting he was seen playing poker on his iPhone:

Syria Secretary of State John Kerry

  While it is true that his mind is made up and he is not going to change it, what kind of message does this send to the American people while such an important issue is being debated? The least that he could do is to at least appear as if he is interested in what is being discussed. After all, it is we the people who are paying his salary and I am pretty sure we are not paying him to play video games as he prepares to commit to attacking a foreign nation.

  Isn’t it wonderful to see that John McCain has his priorities in order?

    Nothing but a senile old fool. He was Just on o’reilly and his posturing arrogance was over the top.

    The operative word here is charade. This old bastard did the right thing since had he not amused himself he would have been copping zzzzz’s while Kerry droned on as he prostituted himself for the floppy earred one.

      A charade is exactly what this is, it appears as if the fix was in from the beginning. Still holding out hope for the House, however foolish that might be.

    Yesterday, the classes that I teach resumed, so I didn’t see this nonsense on the part of McCain until this morning.

    Anyway, I am really PISSED OFF! We conservatives excoriate the Dems for their many frivolities. Yet, here we have in McCain a man who ran for POTUS just a few years ago, and he doesn’t have any sense of gravitas during talk of war. Sheesh.

      Yep, he couldn’t be bothered to even pay attention, and this is what we are paying him for?

    If this washed up old buzzard had two arms of equal length he’d be on the golf course with his homie.

    Glory Boy McCain knows it doesn’t matter what Kerry says….McCain already knows what is going to go down….and that is WAR! He most likely has inside information on American forces and just doesn’t give a damn what horror is inflicted on our soldiers with the decision to putt boots on the ground!

      Boots will be on the ground and he knows it. Check out my latest post on this, the Pentagon has already estimated it will take 75,000 troops to secure the chemical weapons. This is the plan.

    McCain confessed on “60 Minutes” in 1997; “I am a war criminal,” … “I bombed innocent women and children.” If McCain is sincere when he said that, why isn’t he being tried for war crimes by the U.S .Government? What actually happened to mcCain in his POW camp that twisted him? Was it abuse, as he claims, or was it the fact that he collaborated and has to cover up?

    Clearly you guys are all retarded. That picture has a grey maybe brown suit holding the game. If any of you watch dogs had actually watched the hearing, Sen McCain was wearing a blue suit. Not to mention the fact that the screen in this pic is clearly photoshopped. Get a job and get a life.

      Retarded? Don’t think so! You attack because we did not have the pleasure of watching the hearing (as you did), then you turn around and tell people to get a job and a life. Well, which is it, you want us to watch the tube and suck off the government in the recliner OR work and pay our own way? Cannot have it both ways, Drew.

        Great point Lou! Apparently Mister Jones had enough time on his hands to watch the whole hearing. Something I did not have because I am one of the lucky ones who still have a job despite Obama’s attempt to crash the economy.

    McCain was being interviewed by Wolf Blitzer on his program, he admitted to playing Poker and losing a lot of money on it, when he was asked if he had done that. Rush was just talking about it now and playing the sound bite on his program. So guess it WAS him…hmmmm! Our tax money hard at work, it seems.

      Regardless of whether or not the picture is real the point still stands and McCain admitted he was playing poker while we were paying him to pay attention. That is the point that Mister Jones is willfully ignoring. And we are the retards…..
