Angry McCain ups ante, calls Paul, Cruz 'wacko birds' | WashingtonExaminer.com »
Elder Sen. John McCain, who this week engaged in friendly fire when he launched his maverick missiles at fellow Republicans seeking clarification on the administration's drone policies, has upped the ante, deriding Tea Party-backed GOP lawmakers as wacko birds. McCain, who hit the Senate floor Thursday to belittle Sen. Rand Paul's filibuster, which succeeded in getting an answer from President Obama that drones won't be used to kill Americans on U.S. soil, even suggested that the Kentucky senator and his allies, like Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Michigan Rep. Justin Amash, don't represent the GOP mainstream. It's always the wacko birds on right and left that get the media megaphone, McCain told Huffington Post's Jon Ward in a story titled John McCain: Getting Back To Maverick, With An Eye On Retirement.
