Senator John McCain had harsh words for Great Britain Friday following that country’s decision to not participate in a coordinated attack on Syria.

Appearing on NBC’s Tonight Show, McCain said, “I feel badly about the British. They're our dear friends, but they're no longer a world power. It's just a fact of life.”

McCain having a hissy fit because Britain won't bomb Syria.

Britain...

Nuclear Weapons
The 4th biggest military budget in the world
6th largest economy in the world
Owns islands and small territories around the world
Is a permanent member of the UN Security Council
Is home to the Queen of 16 different countries
The place where American/Canadian/Australian/New Zealand's culture originates
Is a member of both NATO and the EU

Yet not a world power?

He mad.

[VIDEODROME]

Apparently, a nation has no worth in McCain's view if it isn't ready to bomb the shit out of other random nations.


I mean really, what if McCain visited the UK? Would being in another culture even make an impression on him? Or would he only want to tour British Naval Yards and Military Bases and visit with Generals and Admirals having "Shop Talk" about attack readiness?

What if he was President during the 90s? He probably would have suggested they should attack Ireland.

Is this Great Britain, 'cause tell me what makes Britain great?
If you're from Diego Garcia, Britain isn't very great.
Many driven from that place, for a military base.
And they can't go back, 'cause there isn't any space,
and the bombs kept there, turn into killings everyday.

Dear Mr. McCain... If we go into Syria and end up kicking a hornets nest via China and Russia and leading us into WW3, we will no longer be a world power.

How old is this fart now anyhow?

Young enough that his mom is still alive.

[AngryCanadian]

Does John McCain believe the world is moving around him? whose he trying to be?

[Natural Citizen]

Young enough that his mom is still alive.
Yeah? Well... shit. I guess I should just go ahead and get on that Mars One list (http://applicants.mars-one.com/)then. Fuck.

John McCain is no longer a relevant Senator. Maybe he should move to the U.K.

[heavenlyboy34]

attn: John McShame- The Sun Never Sets On The British Empire. 'Nuff said....except that the British Empire is almost as evil as the American...and I'm pretty sure what Quigley said about the subject is true. http://www.amazon.com/Anglo-American-Establishment-Quigley-Carroll/dp/0945001010/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1378001575&sr=1-3&keywords=tragedy+and+hope

[heavenlyboy34]

IDK...he seems more fond of Iraq and Afghanistan...

[paulbot24]

So the UK is no longer a world power anymore and it's time to re-initiate the Cold War with Russia since they didn't observe our execution orders for Snowden. Time to retire to Qatar McCain.

He's drinking that Dick Cheney immortality juice. I swear it's like the more corrupt they are, the longer they live.

[Cap]

I'm curious, anyone heard what Lindsey Olin Graham has to say on this? He's being strangely quiet, no?

[RickyJ]

In a normal society, John McCain would be getting help for his insanity instead of being a US senator.

Money has something to do with longevity!? Lol. :p

Wait until immorality is earthly feasible.

Never mind, I see there is another thread that states he most emphatically does support a strike. I knew he would not disappoint.

[anaconda]

He mad.

Title should be "John McCain: No Longer A Senate Power."

[quezkittel]

Bwahahaha tack on a President to the beginning of his name, i.e. "President McCain said, "I feel badly.... " and see how pathetic that looks. Thank goodness he lost.

[eduardo89]

Is McCain stuck in 1945? The British ceased to be a world power after WWII.

Hey, now. One of the fastest growing ...biillion dollar industries, btw...is in the field of transhumanism. Nobody ever talks about it though.

But that's another topic. A few actually...

Old news. back in the 1980s, a US Air Force general caused some controversy by being quoted as saying the modern Britain was a tragedy be cause the once great British Army had nothing left but generals and marching bands. The controversy died down when many of the generals of the British Army were asked to comment, and agreed with the assessment.

In other news..McCain slams Babylon and Sparta for not joining the coalition.

And...?

[69360]

so the US will no longer be a world power when congress votes no? Good

[anaconda]

And...?

Strikes me as a tad surreal for a Hollywood talk show host to be discussing bombing strategies. Like you could maybe make a SNL sketch with this as a premise.

It was empire that destroyed Great Britain just like it is empire that will destroy America.

[T.hill]

Is McCain stuck in 1945? The British ceased to be a world power a
fter WWII.

Britain lost it's status as a pre-eminent power after WWII, but its still a 'great power' with a large global presence.

Well. I don't know about you S_F, but I shall finish the game. I heard that in a movie some where.

When you're talking about a strategic nuclear power, the U.S. and Russia are the last two (since the 1980s). McCreap is a little late.

They were the only two, right?

They could scrap their entire MIC in the UK and they would still enjoy enormous global power from just their humble little ideas and musings at Chatham House that they enjoy over cigars and brandy.

Thought so....
