Watch McCain completely embarrass himself on Republicans' favorite channel:

John McCain did not have a good Sunday morning on the Fox News program Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo. The 78-year-old Republican senator from Arizona, who recently announced he was running for a sixth consecutive term in the Senate, did a good job at showing his age and/or incompetence. The show became embarrassingly awkward when he could not, for the life of him, remember a fourth country Iran is supposedly occupying.

He is an arrogant, spoiled, demanding prick.

But, at least he didnt politicize Benghazi as Romney did, who owes this country an apology

he was an Academy educated Navy flyer who saved several men while sustaining serious burns on the Forrestal in an incident that killed 120 sailors.

He's much more qualified to do more substantial things than wash cars, the arrogant, spoiled, demanding prick thing not withstanding.

his three "mishaps" (or more commonly known as crashes attributed to pilot error) were overlooked. If he had been anyone else he would have been considered a wash out and he would never have been shot down over vietnam. As for the forrestal he did what every other able body sailor was doing that day. No criticism of his courage, just his flying skill.

aircraft just because someones grandfather and dad were salts. My biggest problem with McCain comes from how he treated his first wife when he came back from Viet Nam. How he got caught with Keating's money. How he pandered to the Teapublican extremists.

POTUS Magoo???

Really sad that Maria offered up Saudi Arabia as a country occupied by Iran. She's obviously well-versed in that part of the world where we have been warring for the last 25 years.

To think this stupid stupid man could have been our president. Time to hang the oat bag around the ol' nag's neck, open the gate to the pasture and give him a swift slap on the ass to join old Grumbler under the trees.

That people watch this stuff to feel informed is astonishing!
