McCain - "I Never Considered Myself A Maverick"

[geekUSA101]

I think the dementia has kicked in with McCain, time to retire....

[MrOnlinePsychology]

Oh come on "ive never considered myself a maverick" could of just been an extract - like "I call myself a maverick but never considered myself a maverick until it came time to stand up"

[echosixnoble]

if I remember correctly "Maverick" was a fighter pilot... not an old creepy man.

[OmniDude90]

Because he is trying to speed along evolution, and evolution requires sacrifice!

[KangaKucha]

JR, you a calgary flames fan? snice when? whe the Jets come back, I stongly consider changing sides.

[markvanslam]

I love TYT....keep it up you guys

[mgallant01]

Dont worry Mr Mcain! Thanks to Obama 2009 was a DEBACLE with elections for Dems are 2010 is looking WORSE! THANKS B HUSSEIN!! HAHHAHAH!!!

[TheEggNOSSTic]

you guys are ignorant, and taking it out of context Hes a Maverick out of the Senate and the senate is Left Wing hence Maverick..... and He said he didnt say hes a Maverick in the context of Conservatism... The only thing McCain is guilty of is assuming you guys are intelligent.

[tsruikk]

@TheEggNOSSTic The Senate is left wing? O.o

[MasterAdam100]

A Maverick is someone that does not carry a brand. IN a nutshell pretty much.

How are McCain and Palin mavericks again?

[Subrick]

I think the Alzheimer's has finally set in on Bush v2 over here.

[datniggami6]

Senile son of a bitch!

[UBER069]

Earth to John McCain; NO ONE FUCKING GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOU> you are an "also-ran" and you torpedoed yourself trying to balance the black demographic against your backdrop of the brain-dead hockey mom from the stix. Next time, if you get one, at least try to have a qualified running mate instead of some idiotic MILF eye-candy.

[TheSirJecht]

Kinda sucks to see McCain get whipped by his own party just to get elected again.

Or like LittoMoonLight said he might have forgot he called himself a maverick, I mean he is very old. lmao

[LittoMoonLight]

maybe he forget lol

[DaytonaRoadster]

No one ever considered you anything more than another racist cuntservative McCain

[BloggerMusicMan]

Politicians are hypocrites. What a shock.

[calimar28]

Time for McCain to retire

[MrCallipygous]

McCain also announced that he is not old, was never in Vietnam, didn't have cancer and didn't Palin.

[meetreality10]

McCain should retire already. He gets more and more senile every day.

[Joxman2k]

The word Politics is derived from the Latin word "Poly" which means many, and "Ticks" which means blood-sucking parasites.

:P

[aarondavid826]

have you seen his wife, she is probably wearing his old ass out lol

[faething]

Politicians have always lied, but now we have the interwebs to confirm things. The politicians with Old Fart Syndrome keep forgetting this. They are all too comfortable saying whatever BS falls out of their mouths.

[RightWingTV]

John McLame is History. Progressive Republicans who lie and pay lip service to the Constitution will be defeated just as badly as all the Progressive Democrats in Congress.

[MrOphiuchus1]

i'm not sure whos a bigger joke, palin or mccain

[041744]

1:07, am i the only one who heard fucked corruption... lol

[Domzdream]

@041744

I actually heard 'thought corruption in both parties'.

[BioCapsule]

In fact... Palin stole the whole Maverick line from him... and she got where she is by stepping on the corpse that is his political career... lol

[jotunobsidianeyes]

How interesting, I never consider you a maverick either McCain.

[SupremePenguinTone]

@jotunobsidianeyes haha

[obadhai03]

I'm 38 so I remember a time where bold-faced lying was far more secretive and hard to confirm. McCain JUST said all this stuff not even 2 years ago...do you think Congress truly comprehends that we can easily find the truth these days....I,too, actually like this guy at one point...

[tonysoprano216]

John McCain needs Metamucil.

[unincorporated1]

One of the only Republicans I actually respected going out like a bitch. I just feel bad for the poor guy now, because I know he didn't really want to say that, but the right wing is cracking the whip.

[tishhead]

you people don't understand. his target isn't the well-informed or the morally consistent. it's republican voters.

[jeddah91]

You sold out! Greed fo position of Power and wealth suceeded where [imprisonment & torture Failed .

John , see how powerful greed is? Now you will make promises you know you are not ALLOWED to keep, you know the president doesn't fight the Bankers, those who CONTROL ALL WEALTH. They can bring you up, or bury you. The queen bee has a long sting.

[Forsakenguitarist90]

just proves that John McCain is getting old and senial...why he can't be president

[Arancaytar]

John McCain has never considered himself a maverick, and also has always been at war with Eastasia.

[gimmethegepgun]

@Arancaytar No no no, he's always been allied with Eastasia, and has always been at war with Eurasia

[Anon11674]

Of course McCain never considered himself to be a maverick. That was just a cheap attempt to gain voters who weren't already faithful, braindead republicans.

[ReaperSin]

Let us raise a toast to the old McCain. *21 gun salute*

[turboboy68]

McCain has become just another typical republican. The old McCain has sold out and is long gone. Sad.

[eeddssxx]

wow 282 up and 1 down. I haven't seen many videos with th at level of agreement

[nomis101uk]

2:47 the penguin! LMFAO!

[MrCherryGhost]

This is equivalent to Obama saying "I never endorsed 'change'!" Too funny.

[blackdove123]

So he was lying in his entire campaign, that or his age has finally caught up with him, if he had won the presidency I shudder at what could have been.

[connecttro]

its sad and to see this greedy pathetic old fart trying to act like he is not going senile.he will say any bullshit lie like no one has a memory of what he really stands for. how could any one think he has any credibility they would have to be low in the IQ area or a liar. a man should know when its time to retire instead of getting in the way of everything.

[VocabWord]

I love the voice for the campaign ad, it sounds like a phone sex commercial. . . .

[Coraxuss]

John McCain kinda reminds me of Michael Jackson: "Before and After". Before, he was probably awesome enough to deserve respect, but After, he's just losing it and he doesn't even knows he is.

[DangerousTalk]

I also heard that Obama never said that he was going to bring change, lol.

[Ectharias]

I used to have a lot of respect for McCain because he wasn't afraid to cross party lines to vote for things he thought were right. But now ... pathetic.

[stigger91]

That's what happens when you suddenly need more votes.

[bigjstokes]

He's just SO mavericky that he goes against mavericks.

[JerezJulio]

Surprice surprice.

Soon we will find out MaCain was a Tea Party Bager all alone.

[JerezJulio]

Surprice surprice.

Soon we will find out MaCain was a Tea Party Bager all alone.

[miketwo345]

I feel sorry for McCain... I really do. The Rove's, Limbaugh's, Hannity's and Beck's just have him whipped like a little schoolgirl. I used to have so much respect for him, too... Sigh.

[Ivan951]

@miketwo345 school girls whipped? hm

[franknitti100]

Funny how I don't see any trolls on this thread. They even know there is no defense.

[upabittoolate]

I think the Ty toys should make a McCain Pander bear doll. They'd sell like hotcakes.

[DillonDee1]

He;s just an ole senile fart now...cut him some slackc.

[Diatonic5th]

It's sad watching McCain get more and more pussy-whipped by the GOP as the years go on.

[satbir129]

they just cant stop lying, its like a disease

[xyzoneon]

The cartoon villain robots from megaman have more political value than this fake maverick.

[ViolentRiC]

@xyzoneon

Even Sheepman?!

[xyzoneon]

@ViolentRiC Yes

[ViolentRiC]

@xyzoneon

This troubles me.

[Kyanlikethepepper]

maybe McCain finally learned a lesson in humility

[midgetman433]

he is soo much of a maverick that he doesnt even label himself a maverick!!! *pun intended*

[audadvnc]

Hey, Senator - how's that "Freedom-ey, Maverick-ey" thing working for you now?

[pbmdh]

Lulz

[Opiman000]

@CarnardP

They do. They have their web site posted on their youtube channel.

Every nite, Monday to Friday from 7 to 10 pm EST

[Opiman000]

@Opiman000

And I tried to post the actual site address...but apparently the new and improved youtube had different ideas.

I find the big red error message vaguely offensive. Just saying.

[harr77]

McCain's flip flops ah how I've missed them.

[pritcute]

Oh, I guess he just Forgot all that "Maverick" showboating was caught on tape! You know he's an old Guy. One that needs to retirer!

[AGrandt]

He forgot?...Maybe it's just the dementia kicking in :)

Probably a good idea he didn't win the election.

I can just hear it now..."What did this button do?..."

[Coraxuss]

@AGrandt

Agreed! Already reforming Health Care has reared its ugly and literally stinking up the place, much like trying to clean out the sewer. I don't even wanna know what would have happened if it was McCain and not Obama tackled Health Care.

[SupaAmi]

LOL. This is so typical. Love it, TYT.

[fai1t0liv3]

John McCain used to be an awesome guy. Out of the few Republicans I respected he was top of the list, but damnit, his values have been hijacked by the Tea Party. He's no longer the man we knew and trusted. Seeing how far he has slid has just highlighted the growing divide this country is facing.

[calimar28]

@fai1t0liv3 He was never trusted by us conservatives. He always was a very dependable liberal...we conservatives could depend on McCain to show his true liberal colors, hence "the Maverick". Now he lies and says he is no Maverick, to try and get elected. I have a better idea: why doesnt McCain just join the democrat party, he will surley get elected!

[WonModeerf]

@calimar28 Don't try to throw your trash in our lawn. You religious barbarians like people like him. You created the monster, you keep the monster.

[mlking213]

How do you run a campaign where every other sentence he says maverick now..................."I Never Considered Myself A Maverick"

wow....

[BionicDance]

Aww, he just never considered himself to be Tom Cruise in "Top Gun"...that's what he never meant! :D

[glamourknight]

McCain was well liked back when he was a moderate. Shifting with this evil wind thats blowing through the USA is a big mistake.

He should accept that the racist teabagger candidate is probably going to beat him in the primary. And then wait a few years for people to regret it and for history to judge

[Coraxuss]

@glamourknight

"McCain was well liked back when he was a moderate."

I think I remember at one time long time ago he was so frustrated with the Republican policies that the Democrat had actually offered him an opportunity to switch over to the other side.

[mrbadguysan]

I may disagree with the man on damn near everything, but you've got to admit that either:

1) John McCain has the largest set of balls in all the history of man kind.

or

2) John McCain's old age has caught up with him, and he doesn't remember running for the presidency in 08.

[LiberaLib]

@mrbadguysan i agree, there's something about this that makes me like mccain more. he's basically blowing the whistle on how phony the electoral process is.

oliver stone is gonna do a biopic of john mccain someday. mark my words, you heard it here first.

[bumfire007]

@mrbadguysan option 2

[megagagnon1]

You can point to govt power doing some good, not much lately, but in any case it's an expensive way to "fight" Big bizz. Imagine you have cockroaches in your house, and to fight the problem, you bought a sledgehammer. You manage to kill some of the cockroaches, but in doing so you destroy your home. That's how Big government works.

[Darrinh1965]

@megagagnon1 what is your point, we are talking about john mc cain and his lies....

[hahaNO56]

It's like a scene out of Top Gun, except now Goose(Palin) doesn't die and is comming to help him. ;)

[shielakay]

I love you guys. you are the only ones reporting on stuff like this!

[spinnersmetal]

Maybe you shouldn't pick the most unqualified government official in the history of the united states to be your VICE PRESIDENT running mate, and someone will take you seriously

[zundey2000]

John McCain, open mouth, insert foot.

[zundey2000]

McCain is just a rich old white guy.

[zundey2000]

@zundey2000 Dosen't get more unMavrick than that.

[yourmomdidsayyourean]

McCain is a maverick's ass.

[jonvidmusic]

lmao Cenk is hilarious!

[megagagnon1]

McCain is pathetic, but Obama is more pathetic in some ways. Big govt and big spending is killing us. If you believe the way to fight big bizz is with big govt, that cure is worse than the disease.

[SgtSprayin]

@megagagnon1 Big government is the only thing with enough power to kill big business. Unfortunately I'll have to agree with you that Obama hasn't tapped into that power enough and has been a wimp for most of his term.

[megagagnon1]

@SgtSprayin Big government is killing us. Anyone who votes democratic or republican is voting for big govt, is voting for endless wars, is voting for the warfare state and the welfare state. Big govt is in the pocket of Big bizz and always will be. Anyone tired of war is ignorant if they think democrats will end anything.

[Darrinh1965]

@megagagnon1 u need to take a break from fox news, and find out the truth

[mrx0066600]

So basically then he was being insincere when he said he was a maverick, because he never considered himself one when he called himself one...

Way to lie then.

[ViolentRiC]

@mrx0066600

Zactly. He isn't lying now, he's just admitting to many many lies from his campaign run.

[like2seeit86]

McCain is such a clown and sellout. " I never considered myself a maverick" lol.

[TromboneUSAlabama]

Credibility destroyed in 3...2...1...0

[TheTruth006]

Politics is a world were nothing matters and the time line is 5 minutes before or after what you've said.

[lex811117]

Alhimers is kicking in i think...

[DarkStar1O9]

LOL fool

[jo05dk]

I'm equally impressed and digusted by how often republican lie like madmen, and never get called out on it. They just say whatever, and get away with it.

Man that's something..

[rollsthepaul]

McCain is the man that had his war record classified a top secret, forever. People with him in Vietnam, say he was a traitor. He abandoned his first wife because she had a car accident and lost her looks. John McCain is rich trash.

[Suzahi]

I thought he literally went senile due to old age and alzheimer's disease when I first read the title. I want my 3 seconds of sympathy back.

[rjbonacolta]

You see this isn't the real McCain, this is the T-1000 set back in time by Sky-Rove to replace him and kill John Connor.

[fu3ar25]

65 should be retirement age for Govt "officials"

[philhale]

Mr McCain, we appreciate the your continued support for the Party. It's free thinking individuals like you that this country needs. Now, here's your script for today.

[MrGish1]

Whats with the wide face? Get it, because they widescreened this making the characters allocated in the video stretched out. Now laugh. Laugh. Laugh now. Laugh. LAUGH! LAUGH YOU JENKINS!!! LAUGH LAUGH LAUGH!!!!! RAWR!!!!!!

[Ardenwolfe]

Just goes to show politicians will say and do anything to gain votes, money, and power.

[TOTCD]

McCain is a joke

[InsideTheMirror]

Soon as I read the title I laughed my ass off.

[medaa25]

Did i say maverick? No, i meant

ma veri ck....a ma veri ck...a man very rick....A man very rich! that's what i meant.

[OLDBEATERSIX]

lol!!!!! i saw the title and couldnt believe it!! didn't he have maverick written on his bus? i remember when bill maher called mccain and palin the "maverick and the milf". thats like....the WORST.... thing john mccain could have said.

[dangerouslytalented]

"maverick" was never a way of life for McCain.

"Maverick" was more of an advertising position.

[Ericthereddy]

his version of coming out of the closet....

[9Ghostly9Fish9]

However, knowing the right wing, do they usually follow facts that goes against agenda no matter how much video evidence is backed up? No. So don't worry John, you'll probably be taken back by your party in no time.

...And the republicans will just pathetically crumble a little more underneith his weight.

[sindefeatist]

he just did it for the votes bs we all no he not a maverick

[agroves120]

Highway to the....

[Thebeautiful11]

a Maver-er-wha?

[Deadwright]

Poor old John McCain, he looks real sad.

[77Aussie]

There's only ever been one Maverick, and he was aided by Goose, not Palin. RIP Goose.

[dangerouslytalented]

@77Aussie I thought it was James Garner...

[dfrutled]

McCain is an senile man. THANK MY LUCKY STARS HE DIDN'T WIN THE PRESIDENCY. We would have this senile man in the WH with the door knob conspiracy theorist as his VP.

[classc63]

@dfrutled I was JUST going to write the SAME thing! LOL

[MaicoMoon]

Instead of ending and saying they're brazen, say they're brainless, because that's what they are. Stupid dumb shits running our country.

[MaicoMoon]

McCain is a fukin fagit. I don't give a fuck if he's from Arizona, I still didn't vote for such a dumb shit.

[TheDepreso]

wtf is wrong with video?

[7d7e7f7]

I mean come on were Mavericks what dya think? If someone has to constantly remind people they are a badass Maverick than they are anything but that.

[Silvertrine]

Yeah battle big oil my ass.

[7d7e7f7]

If a dude has 20 houses like McCain, I'm not gonna listen to a word he has to say.

[h8uall66]

That was the voice of Joe Estevez in that ad. He's the brother or actor Martin Sheen. He does a LOT of voice over work for republican TV spots. Sounds just like Martin, doesn't he?

[vwestlife]

The fake widescreen effect isn't showing up correctly. Everything looks stretched out.

[darealdjnutz]

American Hero my ass. John McCain is just a privileged, stupid, old racist. Fuck him.

[Elmaln]

No shit, he's just another cunt who went to war, like millions others did, and just happened to be captured by the enemy. FUCK YEAH HES A HERO!

[fiercefunky]

He should call himself a loser, because that's what his tired ass is.

[j3znz]

haha original because he is old...

[forgetititititit]

Is "calling" oneself a maverick the same as "considering" oneself a maverick? :)

[alizee2010]

McCain has become such an undeniable clown since 2000. Not that he was respectable prior to that but disingenuous acts have been 24/7/265.25 ever since.

[baddmanaz]

could newsweek have misquoted him? maybe he said: "i never considered myself a mad prick".

[SkreetGil]

He probably forgot he called himself a maverick...Alzheimer?

[m22k3yt]

He's running against JD hayworth, a guy who makes McCain look like a liberal.

[torak101]

McCain - "I Never Considered Myself A Maverick"

Don't worry, neither did we :)

[bumfire007]

@torak101 great response

[ViolentRiC]

@torak101

I've never seen so many thumbs up on a recent comment!

[KurtLang]

Maverick? He a comic book hero or sumthin?

[gan0nsl4y3r]

something wrong with the camera

[gan0nsl4y3r]

something wrong with the camera

[jshooper]

republicans don't care about the truth...facts...or being exposed as LIARS....and their base is too dumb to notice

[Navywxman]

Never considered himself a maverick huh. So in other words his campaign(s) and years of selling that 'brand' of himself has been total bullshit. That he has lied for years. That he is a loyal servant of the status quo of wealth and power.

What a sad little man he is. Just move to florida and retire with your plaid shorts, black socks and sandals. Just get lost sorry old fool

[hemlock10]

The "old" John McCain was awesome; someone I could have voted for. The new John McCain is a joke. He needs to head up legislation on term-limits and retire. He's doing nothing more than ruining his legacy. He has reversed himself and pandered to the right so many times I've lost count.  The last straw was the reversal of "Don't ask, don't tell". He said that if the military leaders said it was time that he would support it. Then he's in hearings fighting against these people. WTF?

[krustacean99]

IS that a Flames hat on Jayar?  Cool

[KataVideo]

this is the final slice in the castration of john mccain. how's that righty, paliny thing workin' out for ya, john?

[slade420]

he must be getting forgetful in his old age. after all he is 105

[dizzymasekela]

I confess: I used to consider McCain the only tolerable Republican. He's now a tea bagging piece of shit.

[Capng123]

You have to wonder how far gone someone has to be to become THIS divorced from reality. It's on tape John. A lot. A whole hell of a lot. You might as well say "I never considerd myself a white male."

[akusuijin]

@ecwaufisxtreme Dude, seriously...

[jumar1281]

@akusuijin

please don't respond to this douchebag dickhead ecwaufisxtreme.... if you didn't know, he is the biggest TYT TROLL on youtube. ALL of his comments are exactly the same. My theory, if you stop feeding a troll, it will die

[TheGiantRobot]

@jumar1281

No, trolls have amazing regenerative powers.
