Mike:  Let’s go to the digital media files today because we have more John McCain hissy fits.  McCain appearing on CBS’s Face the Nation yesterday, [mocking] “We gotta get in there.  We gotta get in there and bomb.  We gotta help our rebel buddies out.  Assad is killing people the rebels are great people.  I met with them.  They’re wonderful.  The heart eater is a good guy.  The heart eater is a good man.  I didn’t know he was a heart eater.  That’s all right.  He’s a rebel.  Screw everybody.  Screw all of you.  We gotta get over there.”  Get this, McCain accusing the American citizenry of aiding and abetting the Assad regime because we won’t aid and abet the Al-Qaeda-based rebels that oppose them.  I really think that McCain is just losing his mind.

John McCain: We are seeing, unfortunately, a battlefield situation where Bashar Assad now has the upper hand and it’s tragic, while we sit by and watch.

Mike Church Show Transcript: McCain And Co. Are Determined To Make War In Syria

Mike:  “While we sit by and watch.”  Every time someone has the upper hand against someone else, the United States either helps the upper hand or it aids and assists the hand that is not upper.  That’s what we do.  That’s why we have a military.  That’s why we have a Navy that’s a force for good in the world, because there are upper hands and lower hands.  We can’t as Americans sit idly by while lower hands are getting clobbered by upper hands…

John McCain: Anybody that believes that a Bashar Assad is going to go to a conference in Geneva when he is prevailing on the battlefield, it’s just ludicrous to assume that.

[end audio file]

Mike:  AG, sometimes I just don’t know what to say when I hear him.  Does he think that Al-Qaeda is going to show up at the Hague and negotiate with Assad?  Is that what he thinks?  [mocking] “I’d like to negotiate a ceasefire.  Let’s all go to Switzerland.”  There is a legitimate government in Syria.  The government of Syria is run by Bashar Al-Assad.  Whether we like it or not, that is a legitimate government.  The lunatics that are trying to unseat him do not like his partially secular regime.  They’d like to replace it with an Islamic, a Sharia law regime.  What does that mean to the remaining Christians in Syria?  We’re going to go over this again.  That means they’re either dead or they’re on the run.

My good friend Petras sent me a gift about nine months ago of a St. Joseph’s daily missal.  One of the things I like about the missal is that in the back, day by day, you can read the canonization of all the saints and martyrs that have been canonized by the Catholic Church.  I know all of you aren’t Catholic so I won’t bore you with the liturgy.  Let me just say to you that it’s probably about once every other week or so, someone that was a saint or a former pope just happens to also have been a Syrian.  The idea here that we’re missing out on something by not aiding Al-Qaeda or aiding the Muslim Islamic, the Jihadis that are trying to unseat Assad, knowing that there are Christians in Assad’s protection is just reprehensible.  It’s beyond noninterventionism, which we should practice to start with.  But should we participate in and even lend a hint of a helping hand to the persecution of Christians, the few that remain in the holy land?  Syria was part of the geographical area known as the holy land.  That’s another thing.  Whether you like it or not, that’s part of the record.  Yet McCain just can’t be stopped.  McCain says that Assad is the one that must be stopped.

John McCain: There’s no good options here. The options were better a year to two years ago than they are now, and every day it gets worse. There is no doubt that this is going to become a regional conflict if it continues like this.

[end audio file]

Mike:  It will become a regional conflict if you and your buddies Lindsey Graham and Kelly Ayotte and Joe Lieberman keep destabilizing every stable regime in the entire region.  You’re the one that’s destabilizing things.  Why did it become unstable in Libya?  Why did Benghazi happen?  Because we helped kill Muammar Gaddafi.  Now you want to go and you want to help kill Bashar Al-Assad.  What could possibly go wrong?

By the way, the Washington Compost and the rest of the East Coast elite media, they are fashionably trying to influence the American sheeple into this war.  Jennifer Ruben, running alleged conservative interference in the Washington Compost over the weekend, writing about all these atrocities, [mocking] “We know that the Russians are providing weapons to the Syrians.”  So?  [mocking] “And we know that the Iranians are providing weapons to the Syrians, too.”  So?  [mocking] “We’re the only people that are allowed to arm the rest of the world.”  Am I the only one that sees the hypocrisy of this?  So only United States weapons, if they’re not stamped made by Boeing or Raytheon or whoever, if they’re not stamped made in the USA, weapons to kill, weapons of mass destruction to kill, maim, destroy private property can only be sold and used by us.  We are the armed trader of first resort in the known universe.  Anyone else that sells weapons is a bad guy, except us.  Again, faced nose to nose, eye to eye with whether or not you really are pro-life or not.
