Dear John, Please read the Constitution

Sen. John McCain is a war hero and all, but I think he seriously needs a refresher on the Constitution.  The conduct of foreign affairs is squarely in the domain of the Executive branch of our government, and to conduct a visit with a "side" in the Syrian civil war as a representative of the US Government (particularly a side with as shady and doubtful a makeup as the Syrian rebels) has been construed as treasonous in other times and circumstances.
