Stand Up Then, McCain

Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.) revealed Monday that he had written to Vice President Cheney the day he was first briefed on the program in July 2003, raising serious concerns about the surveillance effort. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said she also expressed concerns in a letter to Cheney, which she did not make public.
The chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Pat Roberts (R-Kan.), issued a public rebuke of Rockefeller for making his letter public.

In response to a question about the letter, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) suggested that Rockefeller should have done more if he was seriously concerned. "If I thought someone was breaking the law, I don't care if it was classified or unclassified, I would stand up and say 'the law's being broken here.' "...

If McCain really means that, the time for him to stand up is now.

It's getting to the point where Chipmunk Cheeks is starting to look like a ventriloquist dummy, being held by a bigger dummy, being held by Dick Cheney.

I think McCain is a pimp to the chimp I dont care what comes out of his mouth. I will never trust him.

He says what gets him the most press and he hopes votes in the next presidential election.
