Anti-Tea Party John McCain sides with anti-gov't Ukranians
Publisher's note: Could someone please help me out here?! Senator John McCain has a history of being on the wrong side of God fearing, Constitution loving, peaceful, American Patriots and the Tea Party and everything we stand for concerning our realistic and justifiable grievances with our over-reaching government, and he has outright blamed us for a lot of bad things. However, suddenly he has the gonads to support the Ukraine's version of the Tea Party as they protest against their hardline government?! In the humble opinion of this publisher, it is high time for this senile old jackass to retire.
Fox News: U.S. Senators John McCain and Chris Murphy joined around 200,000 anti-government protesters in the central square of Ukraine's capital Sunday, threatening sanctions against the government of President Viktor Yanukovych if authorities use more violence to disperse demonstrators.
Anti-government protesters have set up an extensive tent camp in Kiev and erected barricades of snow hardened with freezing water and studded with scrap wood and other junk.
McCain, R-Ariz., and Murphy, D-Conn., joined the anti-government demonstration to express support for them and their European ambitions. The protests began Nov. 21 after Yanukovych announced he was backing away from signing a long-awaited agreement to deepen trade and political ties with the EU and instead focus on Russia, and have grown in size and intensity after two violent police dispersals.
"We are here to support your just cause, the sovereign right of Ukraine to determine its own destiny freely and independently. And the destiny you seek lies in Europe," McCain said during a speech, according to Reuters.
"We ... want to make it clear to Russia and Vladimir Putin that interference in the affairs of Ukraine is not acceptable to the United States,” he added.
