Proposal to name Phoenix airport terminal after McCain
So much is wrong with this. First, a democrat mayor proposes to name the renovated terminal after McCain. Second, why would anyone want to name anything air related after McCain.

Sky Harbor's Terminal 3 could be named after Sen. John McCain

The Phoenix City Council is expected to vote on a new proposal to name Sky Harbor's terminal 3 after Senator John McCain.

12 News , KPNX 3:03 PM. MST November 16, 2017

PHOENIX - Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton is proposing the city name Sky Harbor's newly-renovated Terminal 3 after Sen. John McCain.

“Senator McCain has given so much of himself to our country, to Arizona and to Phoenix. Giving something back to an American hero, a former naval aviator, and a 30-year member of the U.S. Senate is the least we can do,” Stanton said in a release.

According to a release, Terminal 3 is in the middle of a $590 million "modernization." The "long-outdated" terminal is expected to have a new south concourse, 15 new gates and a remodeled north concourse by 2020. And when it's completed, possibly a new name too.

The airport's Terminal 4 is named after Barry Goldwater.

Stanton's proposal is pending a full city council vote and approval from Sen. McCain's office.

The vote is expected to take place on Nov. 29.

Can't they name a terminal 3 restroom after him instead? Preferably the restroom closest to McDonald's to facilitate the McStain jokes.

How about name it after him if he’ll resign?

He isn't fit to have a portable toilet named after him.

Is there an imminent Departure with no delays?

I don't think anything should be named after a person until after they are dead. Read that any way you like.

No, its an airline that says it is going somewhere, then when it comes time it refuses to go anywhere, and blames someone else.

Might there be perpetual delays due to obstructing the process?

What is so wrong by naming the airport after him. ?? I am no fan but he was a big deal in AZ.

I will point that your state elected him to the Senate SIX times. Someone out there must like him.

How about putting a little more history in the name, "McCain - Fonda" complex?

When our choice is McCain or an even more left leaning GDC, it isn't much of a choice. I remember thinking when I voted in the primary that the people I was voting against would be the people I would be voting for in November.

Back to the original, I'm reminded when I was the project manager for the expansion of Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City. No one from Oklahoma found the humor when I asked during a meeting if it wasn't a little ironic naming an airport after a man who died in an airplane crash.
