Video: John McCain sidles up to Chuck Schumer on Gun Control

There is so much wrong with John McCain and much of it is on full display in this clip of his appearance on CBS's Face the Nation with Chuck Schumer. For starters, McCain obviously didn't learn anything from the backlash he received after calling Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Justin Amash, et. al. 'wacko birds' for Paul's filibuster.

Now, with several Republican Senators pledging to filibuster any gun control bill, McCain is apoplectic and does not 'understand' why they would filibuster. It also says something about McCain that he is more comfortable around someone like Schumer than he is around someone like Cruz.

At another point during this clip, McCain says something about everyone wanting to achieve the same objective. That is a completely incorrect statement. The Democrats want gun confiscation and conservatives want their second amendment rights protected.

McCain is clueless and should just become a Democrat. Period.

Also noteworthy - and instructive as to why McCain is such a sycophant with socialists - comes at the end of this clip. Host Bob Schieffer heaps praise on both Schumer and McCain for their civil discourse, which only serves to reinforce McCain's paradigm that he's "above the fray" and better than those 'wacko birds'.



As for McCain being wrong, this clip from October of 2008 says it all:

Audio: Mother of Benghazi victim says she is being told to 'shut up'

In an interview with Sean Hannity, Pat Smith, the mother of Sean Smith - one of the four killed at the Special Mission Compound (SMC) in Benghazi, Libya on 9/11/12 - said that she is being told to 'shut up'. However, when asked, she said she wasn't being told that by government employees.

Some might remember that Pat Smith spoke out in the weeks after the attack that killed her son.

This is a compelling interview.
