mcCain repulsed by health care bill ‘euphoria’....anything that repulses mccain!!!!

WASHINGTON - Sen. John McCain said Monday morning that Democrats have not heard the last of the health care debate, and said he was repulsed by "all this euphoria going on."

Appearing on ABC's "Good Morning America," McCain, who was President Barack Obama's GOP rival in the 2008 presidential campaign, said that "outside the Beltway, the American people are very angry. They don't like it, and we're going to repeal this."

McCain, who is in a tough Republican primary fight in his home state, said the GOP "will challenge it every place we can," and said there will be reprisals at the polls, in Congress and in the courts.

On the cusp of succeeding where numerous past congresses and administrations have failed, jubilant House Democrats voted 219-212 to approve legislation that would extend coverage to 32 million uninsured Americans, reduce deficits and ban insurance company practices such as denying coverage to people with pre-existing medical conditions.

4. He said more than that ...ABC news interview here
Don't forget he gets complete Disability monies from the government and has a full time job as a joke

From George Stephanopoulos
When I asked John McCain what he would say to his old friend Ted Kennedy this morning, he smiled and said "Congratulations."

But he had nothing good to say about the legislation that passed the House late last night.

Calling it "a massive government takeover of the health care system," he promised the GOP would fight it on all fronts: challenging the reconciliation "fix" bill in the Senate, moving more broadly to repeal the bill later this year, questioning its Constitutionality in the courts and, of course, hoping to reap electoral gains come November.

Watch the entire interview here

5. He's probably more repulsed at that young upstart who
overcame the odds to slay mcsame in the election. I doubt mcsame would like anything positive coming from this WH.

BTW, Isn't it time for him to retire? Doesn't he need to enjoy some down time?

8. Good, we can add the "party that took away health coverage" to their label
Assuming that the Republicans could gain a majority in both the House and Senate:

1) They'll need a Republican in the White House, because a Democrat would veto it.

2) They'll need 60 Republicans in the Senate because we can filibuster too.

14. And the false rhetoric will continue from a hollow man
He forgets that his former running mate repulses much of America. That is solely on him.

15. Last I checked, my friends, family and I don't live inside the beltway...
...and nearly all of my friends, family and I are euphoric.

Certainly, there are a few who aren't, but they buy the line that health insurance is a privledge, not a right.

16. The Sound of Grandpa (abbreviated from the Simpsons)
The Sound of Grandpa (tune of Sounds of Silence)

Hello Grandpa my old friend

Your busy day is at an end

Your exploits have been sad and boring
They tell a tale that's worth ignoring
When you're alone, the words of your story will echo down the rest home hall

'Cause no one at all

Can stand the sound Of Grandpa

19. McCain is repulsed by the euphoria surrounding him?
Maybe he and every other hypocrite Republican't in Congress should void their government supplied and taxpayer funded "Cadillac" self and/or family healthcare coverage.

20. He had that, "Oh crap, we're fucked" look on his face
That fake little smile he gets when he's trying really hard to make this look as if the Republicans somehow won this. I just started laughing.
