For starters, naming an airport after McCain is like naming a port after the captain of the Titanic. McCain was a really shitty Navy pilot but kept getting promoted despite crashing 3 planes and hot dogging through power lines in Spain. Never would've been a POW if Daddy (an admiral) would have pulled his wings.

As a resident and a conservative I am opposed to naming anything after him.

The GOPe wont support a real conservative here in AZ.

He crashed how many planes? No. You can’t name an airport after this jerk.

It is rumored that McCain caused the USS Forestall fire, he was quickly reassigned and it was swept under the rug by Daddie...

Sad if they named Sky Harbor after McCain. Sky Harbor is the least unpleasant major air terminal that I've been in. Like this SW art gift shops, and love the connected car rental garage.

Isn't there a hotel in Hanoi named after this shit-stain? Yeah...I went there.



"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

I am as displeased with McDick as any other AZ conservative but DID YOU EVEN READ THE ARTICLE YOU LINKED TO??

Sorry but sitting in a jet - A4 - that was hit by a missle launched from an F4 DOES NOT make the pilot of the A4 responsible for anything. Daddy may have covered up a lot of stuff, I don't know but this isn't one of them.

Personally, I'd prefer they name the terminal after Jeff Cooper or Buzz Mills.

McCain can be blamed for a lot of shit but the Forestall fire is not one them.
