ya well he ain't doing his job,and likely will not..it's just another indication our Congress is 99% dysfunctional

I’m sure his staff is fully operational, he’s just not voting. Eight months without a senator is not a big deal.

In my father’s last days I had to go to his office and tell everyone about the reality that he was not coming back. He was an engineer, many of his clients were being patient because they figured he would come back and get their projects done.

my father turned all his clients back to the marketing firm he worked for as well. it wasn't fair not to be able to work on their behalf, or bring in revenue
 
Maybe the Republicans should launch impeachment proceedings against McCain, I’m sure that would go over very well with the rank-and-file Arizona voter.

My father was the only principal at his firm, And he always believed he would be back.

The Republicans took full advantage when Ted Kennedy was sick.

A smart opposition is going to do that. But Teddy could have planned for such contingencies and asked himself how much he owed his constituency to not put himself in that situation.

So was my father. I don’t know if you have been close to a lot of people who knew they were dying, It’s not a common man who can except it, And take Career ending steps to minimize its impact.

I think John McCain truly believes he will be back in Washington.

he might very well. but he's not able to travel,and that's not going to improve in terms of working his duties.
There ought to be some way to have him medically discharged.

The loyalty isn't to the Senate (as I hear McConnel say all the time) -it should be to the people you represent.
and if you clearly are unfit to hold Office....

Sen. McCain returning to Arizona, will miss tax bill vote

McCain is unlikely to return to Washington this year, one of the sources said. But his ability to get on a plane to Arizona was a "good sign," a source said.
McCain left Walter Reed Medical Center "exhausted, but ok," a Republican close to him said.
McCain's daughter, Meghan McCain, confirmed that the senator would be in Arizona for Christmas.

has he even shown up in DC this year?. Go home and die in peace, but let the work of the Senate be done by a physically capable Senator

i remember when you used to post actual ideas..i think that was you
 
Scalise also literally received his injuries in the course of his Congressional career. McCain just got old and developed cancer. I like that McCain is disliked by Douchebag Donald and his sycophants, but, that's not enough for me to justify his hanging around.
