It is perhaps my greatest hope, Mr. President, that some day
we'll consider tax and spending measures with no one else in

a millstone of debt around their necks, and it is a grave mistake.

They [the French] remind me a little bit of an aging actress
of the 1940s who is still trying to dine out on her looks but
doesn't have the face for it.

On France's stance on Iraq, February 2003. |
Only the most deluded of us could doubt the necessity of this
war.
John McCain
On war on terrorism, in speech to Republican
National Convention, August 2004. |
Our armed forces will fight for peace in Iraq, a peace built
on more secure foundations than are found today in the Middle
East. Even more important, they will fight for two human conditions
of even greater value than peace: liberty and justice.
John McCain
Writing in New York Times, March 2003. |
Our political differences, now matter how sharply they are
debated, are really quite narrow in comparison to the remarkably
durable national consensus on our founding convictions.

Remember the words of Chairman Mao: 'It's always darkest before
it's totally black.'.
John McCain |
Thank God for our form of government. The media won't let
there be any cover-up.
John McCain |
The core political values of our free society are so deeply
embedded in our collective consciousness that only a few malcontents,
lunatics generally, ever dare to threaten them.

Like every other 13-year-old in America, she's in love with
Leonardo DiCaprio, who I think is an androgynous wimp. You know
what he does throughout the whole movie Titanic? He smokes.
John McCain
On his daughter, quoted in 'The Washington
Post' June 1998. |
War is wretched beyond description, and only a fool or a fraud
could sentimentalize its cruel reality.
