Behar Hits McCain Who 'Thrust Sarah Palin Onto Me and This Country'

May 4th, 2010 7:12 AM

Catching up on an item from last week from the Joy Behar Show on HLN, during a discussion of Arizona's new law that tries to enforce federal immigration laws, host Behar accused Republican Senator John McCain of "flip-flopping" by supporting the law, and complained that he had "thrust" Sarah Palin "onto me and this country" by choosing her as his runningmate. Behar: "Why should I believe anything John McCain says when he thrust Sarah Palin onto me and this country? I don`t believe anything he says anymore."

Below is a transript of the relevant portion of the Tuesday, April 27, Joy Behar Show on HLN:

JOY BEHAR: What about Senator McCain flip-flopping around all over the place. This is what he said supporting the law. Take a look.

SENATOR JOHN MCCAIN (R-AZ): This law is a response to the President`s and administration`s failure to secure our borders. The federal government has a responsibility to secure the borders. They have not.

BEHAR: Why should I believe anything John McCain says when he thrust Sarah Palin onto me and this country? I don`t believe anything he says anymore. He flip-flopped, he criticized John Kerry for flip-flopping. This guy`s out of control.
