Busted: John McCain admits playing on iPhone during Syria hearing

Please tell me John McCain didn't tweet his last tweet. Just looks woeful.

As Twitchy noted earlier, an eagle-eyed Washington Post photographer spotted Sen. John McCain playing poker on his iPhone during today’s hearing on Syria. Word spread quickly through social media, and it didn’t take long for the news to reach McCain himself. The senator was unapologetic, though; it was a really long meeting, after all, and John Kerry was doing most of the talking.

Exactly. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, as long as you had fun.

amazed that @SenJohnMcCain had the nerve to play games on his phone during senate hearing and then smirk at Rand Paul

Wow, 3 hrs @SenJohnMcCain? Nothing more tedious than discussing life & death & putting everyone in harms way to save Obama's reputation.

RT @michellemalkin: Obama played Spades during bin Laden raid. McCain played iPhone poker during Syria hearing. #matchmadeinhell

Every week, Sen. John McCain makes it clearer and clearer how little difference the 2008 Presidential Election actually made.
