Seriously, do you know anyone, anyone at all who has created a 'Do Not Ivite' list for their funeral? How freaking petty can you be? This plus the idea he could change stance on ObamaCare just to get even with some minor slight of Trump saying mean things on Twitter. What does that say about the man's character?

With a Russian dissident as pallbearer, McCain takes a tacit swipe at Putin https://www.msn.com/en-us/news...r-BBMCQBI?li=BBnb7Kz I'm sure Putin really gives a shit. The liberal media is pathetic. | |||

There are a lot of people who don't quite understand that we are on the brink of, if not already in, a war. It isn't a shooting war but it is as serious and as real as any war this country has ever been involved in. Because they don't realize it they aren't prepared to treat some people, like McCain, as enemy combatants. Because they don't understand the seriousness of our situation they don't understand the seriousness of saying kind words about a dead man. You also have to remember that all members off the "swamp" are not evil leftists who hate us. Some, perhaps like Graham, are just people who have been in public service for so long that they don't remember how to do anything but. That is why Trump is so important. He will call a spade a spade because he doesn't bow to all of the traditions and customs of pubic service. “Everybody wants a Sig in the sheets but a Glock on the streets.” -bionic218 04-02-2014 | |||

I was watching a few minutes of a McCain special on public tv's "Frontline" last night. Their belief was that McCain's pick of Sara Palin as his running mate led directly to the rise of the Tea Party in 2010, and then to the rise and election of Donald Trump in 2016. She was far more popular on the campaign trail than he was, was far more conservative than he was, and she didn't always follow the MaCain script. In the 2 years following the election, she helped a lot of the Tea Party candidates that got elected in 2010. Thus, the spotlight that she gained from being his running mate helped launch the movement that led to the election of 2016. Of course, Frontline made it sound like it was a terrible thing that McCain did in picking Palin since it led eventually to a President Trump. I can certainly see their logic. He always blamed her for losing the election. And it would help explain why he "disinvited" her to his funeral. | |||

Consider a person who would shit on more than 320 million people to spite one man. It speaks to the one man, of the person, and (should) to the 320. The only other person in written history to have done such a thing, was Judas (the) Iscariot. No matter your religious position, the historical reference carries some significance. One "American", turning and screwing all Americans, and their descendants. And yet, so many still see Trump as the enemy of the state. May our eyes be opened.

Just the fact that McCain would specify that Slow Joe Biden deliver his eulogy shows what a POS he was. | |||

Yes, and why this would need to be explained to anyone paying attention is beyond me. All this fawning crap- 'he's war hero and a great statesman'. Sorry, no. Get your head out of your ass and stop falling in love with pretty-sounding words and cloying emotional claptrap. The guy was a fraud, a traitor, and INCREDIBLY petty and it is a VERY GOOD THING for this nation for him to be gone. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||

Folks tend to forget that the media was not kind to McCain in the past. But things are different now. I read only the first paragraph of Matt Bai's "tribute" to McCain, and the first two words are "DONALD TRUMP". And this is what this whole farce is all about.

To blame her is pretty harsh (and I see that from some people on our side, too). Could he have picked a better running mate? Maybe, but the old bore was never going to win no matter who he picked, because he himself was a terrible candidate and campaigner, almost to the point of making one wonder if he wanted to lose. Moreover, in the wake of the recession, no Republican could have won that year. | |||

Petty... even in death: Sarah Palin, Loyal Running Mate, Excluded from John McCain’s Funeral Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, who was Sen. John McCain (R-AZ)’s running mate in the 2008 presidential election, has been excluded from his funeral. Breitbart News has independently confirmed an earlier report in People magazine, which reported that Palin was not sent an invitation, and was told through intermediaries to stay away from the ceremony. McCain fundraiser Carla Eudy confirmed to People that Palin had not been invited — possibly, People speculated, at the behest of the McCain family. The news comes on the tenth anniversary of the date in 2008 when Palin was announced as McCain’s pick for Vice President. Palin now joins President Donald Trump on the list of those barred from the funeral. But unlike Trump, Palin never feuded with McCain and never criticized him. When news broke on Saturday of McCain’s passing, Palin said: “Today we lost an American original. Sen. John McCain was a maverick and a fighter, never afraid to stand for his beliefs. John never took the easy path in life — and through sacrifice and suffering he inspired others to serve something greater than self. “John McCain was my friend. I will remember the good times. My family and I send prayers for Cindy and the McCain family.” Last year, when McCain was reported to have said that he regretted choosing Palin instead of Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT), Palin described the news as a “gut punch” but refused to blame McCain personally, telling the UK Daily Mail that she blamed his “ghostwriters” for such reports. When McCain selected Palin as his running mate, the two had both built reputations as corruption-busting “maverick” leaders who were not afraid to buck their own parties. After the 2008 election, they moved in separate political directions. Palin became an inspirational figure for the Tea Party and for grassroots conservatives in general. McCain campaigned as a conservative border hawk in his 2010 re-election race, but became a harsh critic of the Tea Party, calling Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rand Paul (R-KY) “wacko birds.” Many in the Beltway blamed Palin for McCain’s loss in 2008 — even though Barack Obama had benefited from a sudden financial crisis and a biased press corps. That view seemed to have seeped into McCain’s own thinking. Still, Palin never took offense, and always honored McCain. Even after being excluded from the funeral, she declined to criticize him. People quoted a source close to the Palin family: “[O]ut of respect for Sen. McCain and his family we have nothing to add at this point. The Palin family will always cherish their friendship with the McCains and hold those memories dear.” McCain will be laid to rest on Sunday in Annapolis, following several days of memorial events and ceremonies. https://www.breitbart.com/big-...ohn-mccains-funeral/ "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

I know that mccain's staff blamed Palin, though I honestly never heard him do it. They weren't the type to make honest introspective assessments, anyway. The way I saw it, the ONLY reason zippy the wonder turtle didn't win in a landslide is because of the passion and energy Palin brought to the campaign. NOBODY was 'fired up' over mccain. He was as bland as unflavored oatmeal. She had YUGE crowds at her events. He did not . I think the family making all these "uninvitations" for people they don't like is utter lack of class. As if people are dying to get in to pay their 'respects' to the old dead white RINO. It's a funeral; not the royal wedding. Fear God and Dread Nought Admiral of the Fleet Sir Jacky Fisher | |||
