John McCain
Town Hall Meeting
Denver, CO 07/07/08
QUESTIONER (in wheelchair): "Senator McCain, [...] my friends and I—we are members of a group called ADAPT. We were in Washington in April. And 40 people with disabilities were arrested. We came to your office to ask you to support our national legislation, the Community Choice Act. What that would do is it would end the institutional bias and allow people with disabilities to choose where we would live and would receive services. [...] We come from all over the country [...] Will you sign on to support the Community Choice Act?
JOHN MCCAIN: "I will not because I don't think that it's the right kind of legislation. [...] The Community Choice Act is not a piece of the legislation that I support [...]"

To me it sounds like he's saying "No. Fuck off!" to that poor woman's reasonable request. Heartless self-serving bastard!
