I think it would be a terrific mistake to even reopen the issue. It is working, my friends. The policy is working.

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. He was a veteran of the Vietnam War, where he was a prisoner of war for over five years, an experience that shaped his political career and views on military and foreign policy.
This was a national security issue first and foremost. Ever since 9/11, it's a national security issue. People came to Fort Dix, New Jersey, from across our southern border and tried to kill our soldiers. For us to do nothing is silent and…
It's as long as 13 years -- 13 years before that they would be eligible for citizenship in this country.
And it weeds out those who shouldn't be here and it gives others a chance to remain in this country.
This war was very badly mismanaged for a long time. I believe we have a strategy which can succeed so that the sacrifice of your brother would not be in vain.
This is wrong and hard and tough, but I think we can succeed and God bless you.
I'm not running to do the easy things, so I defend with no reservation our proposal to offer the people who harvest our crops, tend our gardens, work in our restaurants, care for our children and clean our homes a chance to be legal…

When you have only been in the Senate for two years, I guess you can vote against the troops.
Maybe I should wait a couple of weeks and see if it changes. Maybe his solution will be to get out his small varmint gun and drive off those Guatemalans off his lawn.
Maybe he can get out that gun of his and chase those Guatemalans off his lawn.
And the need for us to do a much better and efficient job in our use of the taxpayers' dollars.
The battle over immigration reform heats up, and John McCain takes a shot at Mitt Romney.
Maybe his solution will be to get out his small varmint gun and drive off those Guatemalans off his lawn.
... is not serving the president well. And, it seems to me, out of loyalty to the president, that he should resign.
I think John McCain won that part of the debate by categorically being against torture, and standing up for what used to be a real moral ground of the -- of the Republican Party.
Is there anyone who believes there's not enough money washing around money in politics which has corrupted our own party?
As Dan Simon mentioned earlier, presidential candidate John McCain once called Jerry Falwell an agent of intolerance or at least referred to what we think was Jerry Falwell as that. Senator McCain is singing a different tune now.
I believe in evolution. But I also believe, when I hike the Grand Canyon and see it at sunset, that the hand of God is there also.

We will do whatever is necessary. We will track him down. We will capture -- we will bring him to justice and I'll follow him to the gates of hell.
