I guess we should just be glad that McInsane doesn't see a viable "military option" here.
Of course, the fact that he regards the lack of such as a "tragedy" will surprise no one ...

McCain: "It's Tragic" There's No U.S. Military Option in Ukraine
http://thinkprogress.org/world/2014/03/07/3378371/mccain-military-option-ukraine/
Ben Armbruster (07 March 2014) [emphasis added]

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) on Friday lamented the lack of a military option for the United States in Ukraine against Russia and criticized President Obama for thinking the Cold War is over.

During a segment on MSNBC, McCain said that the Obama administration does’t understand Russian President Vladimir Putin. “They have been near delusional in thinking that the Cold War was over,” McCain said referring to Obama officials. “Maybe the president thinks the Cold War is over but Vladimir Putin doesn’t and that’s what this is all about.”

Later in the interview, when host Andrea Mitchell asked if there is a military option for the U.S. in Ukraine, the Arizona Republican sounded despondent. “I’d love to tell you that there is Andrea, but frankly I do not see it,” he said, adding, “I wish that there were. … I do not see a military option and it’s tragic.” Watch the clip:

[Sanctions could have an effect on..] The "kleptocrats of war, uh hem, the oligarchs and kleptocrats that are part, impartial of the power structure of Vladimir Putin"

The pot calling the kettle black doesn't even suffice.

I am getting really tired of seeing his face on the news 24/7 the MSM are treating him as if his irrelevant.

I'm tired of hearing McCain; not even angering or irritating anymore. Just tired, and a little bored.

I'd rather he'd just pass on from the limelight. :(

I know what he'll say on anything related to foreign policy, before it's said.

Kowtow or die. Bomb everyone. Bomb half the world. All conflicts anywhere, seek war.

He is a cartoon.

McCain, Graham and Bolton are relevant on FAUX News only. Those three guys should be in straight jackets.

Could you imagine this vampire as President? As the saying goes, everything looks like a nail to a hammer, and this rotting corpse of a human sees a whole lot of fucking nails around the world.

As for the Republicans itching for war, go ahead, pick up arms, and go over yourself. McCain – ... You came out of prison bitter and nasty itching for war. What is that? Revenge of the Over-The-Hill-Crowd? Stop sending kids to fight your deranged ideas of king of the mountain. This older generation cannot die off fast enough to save humanity.

Ouch.

The lack of a military option for the events in Ukraine don't bother me. The lack of any appearance of an intelligent foreign policy does.
