| Senator John McCain appeared on Friday’s Studio B and took Rand Paul to task for his 13-hour filibuster targeting the Obama administration’s policy on drones. “No one is going to be struck by a Hellfire missile from a drone that is not an enemy combatant. That’s just a fact,” McCain said. The senator believes Congress should be focusing on more important issues, including the massacre in Syria and North Korea’s potential nuclear arms capability. “That’s what we should be discussing. That’s what we should be debating. Not the impossible scenario.”

Comments: All of this interview was unbearable. However, the worst part of it was when McCain had the audacity to say he was a Reagan Republican. He´s delusional if he thinks he´s a Reagan Republican and further delusional in saying that no one from our government would ever fire a drone in the United States. He doesn´t know the capabilities of the 0bama regime very well does he.

Will someone please tell this loudmouth Obama loving Senator McCain that the use of armed drones in the United States by Obama is only impossible.... until... Obama in fact uses it.
A few years ago it was impossible to imagine that the U.S. government would give automatic guns to Mexican drug cartels...until the Obama government did just that.

If "no one is going to be struck by a Hellfire missle...", why be afraid to say so? When the income tax amendment was being debated they said it would never go over 7%. When someone suggested that be put into the amendment, they were told it wasn´t necessary as it would never go over the 7%. Less than 20 years later it was in the 70% range.

It seemed to be an impossible scenario until Holder kept squishing on his answers. Thereafter, what seemed impossible was his ability to admit that there are any constitutional limitations on the power of this president. Had this been a jury trial, the judge would have informed the witness that Rand Paul´s question called for a simple "yes" or "no" answer. The disturbing reality is that it took the President 13 hours of non-stop news coverage to throw in the towel on an obvious point of constitutional law, namely that life, liberty and property cannot be taken without Due Process.

If John McCain was as concerned about the problems in Syria and North Korea as Rand Paul was about the possibility of drone strikes in America, he would have held a 13-hour filibuster about those issues.
But can anyone imagine John McCain being able discuss anything for the length of thirteen minutes, let alone thirteen hours, except himself or the wacko-ness or wrongness of fellow Republicans he doesn´t agree with?
The men in the white coats are doing a great disservice to America and to John McCain himself by not intervening and taking him to a suitable treatment facility before he has a major public crack-up.

I know Sen McCain went to the Naval Academy, and can´t be stupid. I know he Was a war hero. I know he is probably an honorable man. But, somewhere along the way, the brains are deteriorating.
FTA: "No one is going to be struck by a Hellfire missile from a drone that is not an enemy combatant. " I don´t think Rand Paul was talking about enemy combatant drones.

McCain is just being McCain. He doesn´t get it. He never really did. There has always been something wrong, something out of sync, something slightly out of balance with him. It is time for him to fade away. Republicans like him are a luxury Americans can no longer afford, not when a highly organized, well-financed, media backed cabal of radical Leftists is laboring "to fundamentally transform the United States of America."

McCain thinks he is the "leader" of the Republican Party and thus cannot tolerate anyone taking the "media megaphone" (as he referenced Paul´s filibuster) when he should be the only one with the megaphone. McCain´s naval career was not as "honorable" as it should have been----selling his POW peers for cheap, crashing many planes; his political career not so sterling----remember Keating 5; Anger and vindictive against GWB after 2000 election----blatantly so with his words and actions. He is long past his sell date.

President Obama is eager to build public support for his health care overhaul in the few months remaining before its implementation, but waning enthusiasm from Democrats threatens his effort right out of the gate. Two-thirds of Democrats now believe Obama´s health care reforms will either hurt them personally or have no effect on their daily lives, a Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday shows. In comparison, just 27 percent of Democratic respondents said the reforms would help them. The president has long struggled to convince independent and Republican-leaning voters that his health care blueprint would lower premiums and expand insurance coverage.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank
