McCain admits that the shutdown was intentionally the GOP's fault

[OnePercenter]

Weren't the Republicans willing to pass ACA if environmental regulations were lifted and 'that pipeline' OK'd?

What do they have to do with the ACA?

Nothing.

Holding up funding to the ACA on condition that completely unrelated issues are addressed is not good faith negotiation.

Spot-on. It's called moving an agenda.

McCain should pull a Specter and walk across and come out of the closet finally as a Democrat.

Just cause he's a little too smart to be a Republican doesn't mean he's smart enough to be a Democrat.

McCain is really a conservative, but he acknowledges reality and isn't caught up in the partisan/tea party circlejerk bullshit.

It was a day after this article came out that the Koch brothers and other large donors from the business sector abandoned the effort to shut down ACA and the government by shutting down their financial help to..well we all know now!.

One would think that the truth would have finally sunk in!
It's kinda Ironic that Palin and Cruz were at the protest at the WWII Memorial, when in fact they support the shut down that closed the WWII Memorial. So these whores used the Greatest Generation for political gain. Fucking hyprocrites.
