What ever happened to respect for the dead?

What kind of low life idiots can't respect the person they came to honor and spend a few minutes of their time NOT bashing their political opponents?

It's obvious that McCain even while he knew he was dying was focused on political paybacks and giving the finger to his supporters that made his life one of wealth and power which is amazingly sad for a person about to die.

Ignored our differences? Liberals are ALL about exploiting differences and using them as wedges and bludgeons to divide people. Everything they do is about dividing the country, their actions prove they have absolutely no intention of bringing anyone together. Either you're 100% on the plantation liberal or you're the enemy.

McCains funeral was a great display of hypocrisy. The only reason the left has had anything positive to say about him is because he opposed Trump. In 2008 they called him a Nazi and a fascist.
^^^^^This!

It already has imploded for the most part. He still has the job title. For now.

Right now he's helping the Democrats for November.

It was as it was, a time for a man who spent his life in Politic's and for those speaking to speak of his devotion to politics, and that includes standing against an imbecile occupying the white house with his ongoing criminal mentality and his incessant disrespect for American governance and its governing institution.

A great moment and platform to call out a Wanna be Tyrant like Trump and the blind minded who support him.

Those were his last wishes you can take it anyway you want it but his funeral for the most part has been mostly unifying. It would have been uncomfortable for Trump to attend the funeral, I think McCain took the pressure off him.


Seems that on CD there are some very rabid people that choose this moment to make a case as indicated in this thread in others.


McCain's biggest legacy

Do you live in Mayberry? Funerals, like weddings and child birth, have always served as places for people to get their jabs in against those they don't like. If you've never seen it firsthand, consider yourself lucky.

Thumbs down ‘OUTRAGED’ Americans Disgusted With Hyper-Politicized McCain Funeral

Lets see.
  • 3rd most unpopular war mongering Senator dies.
  • Big Televised Funeral given by establishment.
  • 1st & 2nd most unpopular Presidents in attendance. both also war mongers. 7 wars of choice between them.
  • Accused rapist and only impeached President in modern times in attendance.
  • People were "uninvited" to said funeral.
  • MSM fawns over Senator like he won election in 2008.
What do they all have in common? They hate Trump with a passion. Use funeral as platform to push that agenda. Rest of USA sees right through it.

I wish there would have been more anti-Trump rhetoric. The more The Establishment hates on Trump, the more popular Trump becomes.

because you cant run from the funeral, you cant argue, you cant fight, you cant debate, you have to stand there and take it, and also preachers are always right no matter what they do
