---the Arizona Republican said the U.S. has had a long history of defending disenfranchised citizens across the world, and that the violence apparently inflicted by a government upon its citizens makes this a "human rights issue."

The Republican Party disenfranchises citizens all of the time. While the Republicans held us in their grasp these past years, many American people have suffered and are still suffering a great deal. The party still hasn't admitted to all of the wrongs they have committed. These guys don't deserve to show their faces in America.

God Bless Senator McCain, he is on the wrong side of history himself.

McCain Liberman

Willing to sell out American lives and treasure for the sake of Israel

any comments McCain has on the middle east should be viewed in that light!

He has sold out!

Rejoice that McCain is not the President (and that Palin is not our vice-president). The man either is a cheap political opportunist or a fool. Either way, rejoice that he is now reduced to making cheap shots from the sidelines.

Mr. Bomb-Bomb-Bomb-Bomba-Iran is now chiding Obama for not grandstanding the issue?!!! What a fall from grace McCain has had -- from war hero to hypocritical political opportunist with only his dimmming memory of possessing a genuine (vs. oft-claimed) integrity. He is now SO upset over the carnage. What the heck did he think the bombing of Iran he JOKED about with his core would do -- cure the sick and raise the dead?

Putting America first was NEVER offering up Sarah Palin for vice-president. And strength is something other than making grandstanding noises about how repulsed we all are over Iran's "supreme leader". Sometimes strength consists of passing up the easy shows of indignation and taking the political hits from the likes of McCain for the sake of avoiding the appearance that the genuine Iranian protests are somehow U.S.-inspired.

Unfortunately the peoples of the World do not share your philosophy. If you look closely many, many Countries have a very strong Church State and it works very good for them. Don't export American Democracy it won't work.

What you say is true and perhaps one of the better posts on this site. Thank you. However, we cherish Democracy so much that we want to share with the World's People and as in Greek Literature that is our Tragic Flaw.
