Mr McCains death is also a metaphor for a dying United States of America.
With PEOPLE like McCain gone, we're left with AMERICANS who are either corrupt, incompetent, shady, radicalized, unprincipled, crooked, or all of the above.
Can't wait for this run-away train with no engineer to finally wreck.
Yeah sure. Now the folks who slandered McCain mercilessly during his presidential run suddenly miss the good ol' days of genteel politics? Cry me a river. The reason you got Trump for President is because conservative voters got sick of the opposition using, say, the death of a prominent Republican senator as an opportunity to let them know what awful people they are and rallied behind someone with the guts to fight back.
This has been talked about by many political candidates and others here.
In the heat of the battle --it gets heated..it is part of the campaign process. But at the end of the fight -- both parties move on.
There is a difference.
This kind of reaction is the way we use to behave before we decided that being respectful, honoring someone even if we disagree with them was such bad behaviour.
McCain's greatest opponents will speak at his funeral because he respects them as men. He disagreed with them and fought a hard battle but they are the ones he wants to talk about him at his memorial.
That speaks to McCain's character and if some folks are just discovering it -- so what. How can that be wrong.
Anyone who would be cynical or resentful of the respect being shown McCain is reacting like Trump -- childish, spiteful, resentful, partisan.
You’re the one who claimed that he volunteered for 23 missions that he could have rejected and picked his targets, supply your facts if you can.
an officer pilot can reject bombing missions, It has been done in the Vietnam and Iraq Wars. He could have resigned as officer.
but let stop ignoring the elephant in the room. John Mccain was a warmonger in the 60's, 70's. The 80's. 90's. 2000's all the way until his death. He was ok killing masses of people.
He did after he came back from Vietnam, he did it by publicly defending Senate funding to carpet-bomb Cambodia which killed half a million people. He did it in the 80's by supporting the Contras in the illegal wars in Central America that killed masses of civilians. He did by supporting the Iraq war and Afghanistan wars.
Countries, where John Mccain wanted military intervention (blood and deaths), Thank God this nut never became President and it's a shame that most don't expose his true record out and falsely praise him just because he died.
1) Russia
2) China
3) Nigeria
4) Mali
5) Sudan
6) Libya
7) Bosnia
8) Kosovo
9) Syria
10) North Korea
11) Iran
12) Iraq
13) Georgia
I left other countries out.....do you see a pattern here? the guy was ok killing masses of people anywhere and he got worse the older he got.
Nope, recently saw the coverage on TV with all the covers pictured. I saw many of them myself at the check out lanes during the election. Of course they weren’t true, but voters saw them, even if they didn’t buy the publication. Remember the Enquirer stories about Elvis being alive years after he died?

This is why many on here have you on ignore, just so you know.
If you are calling McCain a terrorist then you are also calling the entire US government terrorists. Not surprising coming from you being a self described far left wing anarchist
All you have to know is that McCain was a Senator since 1987. If you’re not part the solution you are part of the problem. He had become parrot the swamp. Term limits is the solution.
Did you by any chance see the 12-15 covers of the National Enquirer with false stories about Hillary on the cover, placed strategically in check-out lanes of stores? Plus the lying tales from Fox News, and the Russians working on social media against her. That’s why she didn’t win.
She lost because she was a boring old bat that people, on the right and left, disliked.
maybe you should have refused to fly those missions..... you may have alarmed a soviet sub enough for them to launch a first strike...……..
I rather bomb Soviet Nuclear Submarines pointing their nukes at our cities than bombing poor civilians from 3rd world Asian countries that pose no threat to us.
even a low IQ fool knows the difference........there is an old saying in Spanish " Dios No te dio la cabeza para solamente hechar pelos"......"God didn't give you a head just to grow hair"
