John McCain
The Public Record
John McCain was a prominent American politician and military officer who served as a United States Senator from Arizona from 1987 until his death in 2018. A member of the Republican Party, McCain was known for his bipartisan approach and commitment to national security.

The money that is now going to them has increased to $4.7 billion in 2010 alone, and they call themselves small business.
GAO has called upon OMB's Office of Federal Procurement Policy, the very office that you are nominated to head, to amend Federal acquisition regulations to require Federal agencies to closely document compliance with the new SBA…
I think you have to be more definitive on this issue. It is a very important issue to us.
No, I can't accuse the president of that. A lot of people both here and in Congress including Senator Lindsay Graham and Senator Lieberman worked on this strategic partnership agreement and it's important that we send a message to friends…
I think it's a good thing. I think it's always good when the president goes to where young men and women are in harm's way.
I wish the president would explain more often to the American people why Afghanistan -- it's important that Afghanistan not return to a base for attacks on the United States of America.

Remembrance without resolve is a hollow gesture. Awareness without action changes nothing.
The killing stops when U.N. observers go in and then starts up again when they leave.
That's a direct repudiation of al Qaeda, who believes in acts of terror. So the fundamentals of this movement have nothing to do with radical Islamist individuals.
But I think also we should point out the longer it drags out, the more likely it is that foreign fighters and radical Islamists come into the fight.
We have to act in a fashion of leadership of the United States of America with other countries, and the first thing we need to do is get these people some weapons so they can defend themselves.
I do not. And worse than that, Anderson, it gives the people who might be helping more pause while the assurances are given by the U.N. that we ought to give this a chance, et cetera.
It's really sad to see the rhetoric of this administration not only not matched but making almost a joke out of the fact that we are really literally doing nothing.
Remembrance without resolve is a hollow gesture. Awareness without action changes nothing.
