The problem is that most members of Congress don’t pay attention to what’s going on.
John McCain
I don't know how you defeat an insurgency unless you have some handle on the number of people that you are facing.
John McCain
And we are in a strange conundrum. You can kill an American citizen overseas. But according to this administration, if you capture him in the United States, they've got to be read their Miranda rights.
John McCain
I have no rancor. I look forward, not backwards.
John McCain
The benefit of an open town hall meeting is one that you get to hear a lot of different views, and two it has credibility.
John McCain
There are 11 million people living in the shadows. I believe they deserve to come out of the shadows. The children who are brought here when they were children, they deserve that kind of consideration as well.
John McCain
We know that Medicare's going broke in seven years, but we need to start over. That's what the American people want us to do.
John McCain
What is good for my country is good for my party, Should my party abandon this principle, the American people will abandon us.
John McCain
...Sound foreign policy is more than arms control, foreign aid and paying (United Nations) dues.
John McCain
Bin Laden’s death and the debate over torture.
John McCain
We send cruise missiles and then we think everything's all right or we try to bring them to trial. My friends, this time they've gone too far. This time we're serious. This time we won't quit until they are gone, completely gone from the face of the earth
John McCain
America's image throughout the world is very bad.
John McCain
I would like to mention that a couple days ago Senator Obama was out in Ohio and he had an encounter with a guy who's a plumber, his name is Joe Wurzelbacher.
John McCain
Despite occasional policy differences between us, I have long respected Jim Jeffords' integrity, and his conscientious service to his constituents and to the nation.
John McCain
I guarantee you, as president of the United States, I know how to heal the wounds of war, I know how to deal with our adversaries, and I know how to deal with our friends.
John McCain
Suppose that climate change is not real and all we do is adopt green technologies, which our economy and our technology is perfectly capable of. Then all we've done is given our kids a cleaner world.
John McCain
The American people want us to stop spending. And so let's just give them some certainty. Let's extend the tax - the existing tax cuts. And then let's give some more tax breaks to small businesses and large. And then maybe the American people will have some confidence.
John McCain
The way you have bipartisan negotiations, you sit down across the table, as we did with Ted Kennedy, as I've done with many other members, and you say, 'OK, here's what I want, here's what you want. We'll adhere to your principles, but we'll make concessions.'
John McCain
It's a tough path to citizenship. You've got to pay back taxes. You've got to learn English. You've got to have a clear record. You've got to get to the back of the line behind other people who have come here legally or even waiting legally.
John McCain
That does not mean we won't experience the tragedy of the loss of some American lives. We will have an opportunity to instill a democracy in Iraq which will be an example and perhaps force other nations in that region to move in the same direction.
John McCain
