WHY MCCAIN LOST


SPECIAL POST

This is obviously about four years too late, but it underscores a point I need to make.

Senator John McCain, 2008 Presidential Candidate,  expressed bewilderment on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that GOP Senators Cruz, Lee and Paul would filibuster gun control legislation. “I don’t understand it,” McCain said. “The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.”  

Obviously, he never took a Civics course, either.  The purpose of the United States Senate is, my fellow Americans, to do the will of the people.  Like the majority of people in Washington today, he never got that message.  Some of these long-time politicians get so encrusted with their own power that they think the country could not exist without them.  They do not understand that under our Constitution, they would not exist without us. 

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
