    Exclamation McCain playing poker on his iPhone

    McCain playing poker on his iPhone


    McCain playing poker on his iPhone

    As the hearing continues, our ace photographer Melina Mara reports she spotted Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) “passing the time by playing poker on his iPhone during the hearing.”

    We eagerly await the photographic proof, but generally trust Melina’s sharp eye.
    John McCain proving to be a $#@!ing retard.

    What a useless douche
    "Power tends to confuse itself with virtue...conferring upon it a special responsibility for other nations—to make them richer and happier and wiser, to remake them, that is, in its own shining image. Power confuses itself with virtue and tends also to take itself for omnipotence. Once imbued with the idea of a mission, a great nation easily assumes that it has the means as well as the duty to do God's work." - William Fulbright

    I'm surprised the old $#@! could figure out how to do that.

    Irrelevant?
    Radical in the sense of being in total, root-and-branch opposition to the existing political system and to the State itself. Radical in the sense of having integrated intellectual opposition to the State with a gut hatred of its pervasive and organized system of crime and injustice. Radical in the sense of a deep commitment to the spirit of liberty and anti-statism that integrates reason and emotion, heart and soul. - M. Rothbard

    A savage barbaric tribal society where thugs parade the streets and illegally assault and murder innocent civilians, yeah that is the alternative to having police. Oh wait, that is the police

    @SenJohnMcCain 9m Scandal! Caught playing iPhone game at 3+ hour Senate hearing - worst of all I lost!
    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.
    --Albert J. Nock

    LOL some freaking pro-war tool on my fedbook called this 'nit-picking.' Dude can't even pay attention in a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing of which he is a member, during a debate on going to WAR fer criminy's sake. When I was on the Local Government Committee in the NC House, I would have found it obscene to do this during a hearing on ETJ Zoning, which isn't even a fraction of a percent of an issue as compared to going to damn war. I'm telling you, sometimes I really hate people.

    His playing video poker at this Committee Hearing -- IS -- screwing America over. This is a perfect example of his callous and heartless nature when it comes to the potential death of hundreds or even thousands of people. He's decided to commit to war, so he don't need to hear no stinkin evidence. This IS a prime example of exactly what is wrong.

    Blitzer just asked him about poker during the hearings. McCain said he was bored and lost thousands of dollars. What little mind he had left is gone. He ended up saying he wasn't serious, but I'm not sure he knows whether it was real money or not.
    In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes.

    He just said on CNN that after 3 hours he gets bored, but the worst part is he lost thousands of fake dollars while playing the game.

    McCain made up his mind long ago. He can play poker all day long and it won't change a thing.
