McCain to Fox News: “You were wrong about Libya” John McCain schools Sean Hannity

[_Kissy_]

On Sean Hannity’s show last night, Hannity tried to pretend he knew a little something about foreign policy, and Sen. John McCain, R.-Ariz., set him straight.

“It was you and people on Fox that said in Libya, ‘We didn’t know who they were and let’s not help these people,’” McCain said. “They had an election and they elected moderates. They rejected Islamists. And yes, there are al-Qaida factors and there are extremists in Libya today, but the Libyan people are friends of ours, and they support us, and they support democracy. So you were wrong about —so you were wrong about Libya.”

Amen. John McCain is a good man. I may not always agree with him, but I have always thought he was a good guy.

[Momniscient]

Finally. A voice of reason.

[JakeandEmmasMom]

He's a pretty good guy.

[nb34]

Good for him! I respect that man, and he is about the only Republican that I respect.

[LIMom1105]

He's one of the few who will break party lines to tell it like it is. If he did more of this in 08 he may have won.

Quoting LIMom1105:

He's one of the few who will break party lines to tell it like it is. If he did more of thus in 08 he may have won.

I really think that it is true.

 Sounds like the babbleing of an old man.

Hannity never said the people of libya were bad.  Not sure what he is referring too. 

Libya  in general is a terrible place with many terrible people.  

[Carpy]

I agree with Hannity.  And McCain also says he is not taking the side of the adm.  Hmmm

[Citygirlk]

Damn macain says one thing against other republicans and look how fast they turn on him. What a shame.

[Kmary]

That Palin VP pick aside, I have always had quite a bit of respect for Sen. McCain.  I disagree with him regularly, but he does not just tow the party line.  He calls it like he sees it.  This is not the first time and I pray it won't be the last.  The GOP is in desperate need of people who actually think for themselves and obey their own conscience.
