John McCain actually said...

"I just wanted to mention one other issue very briefly. The Portuguese are our great friends..."

"the issues in Iraq need to have a political solution, that military efforts will buy time but not ultimate and decisive success."

"there's a new hope and a new opportunity, and we have to move forward, understanding it's still a very fragile situation."

"Under sequestration, all of these efforts, both civilian, military, interagency, will be hammered if it is allowed to prevail."
