Trump should have sent his personal 757, with the Trump name emblazoned on side to pick his carcass up for the flight back to DC. The ultimate parting FU.

I think dignity and grace in the face of pettiness is the best parting shot. Any fair minded person, even those who are not so fair minded, can see the contrast and know who each man was.

That’s true. You don’t want to really piss off the other Rinos by pulling a stunt like sending the Trump 757 for McCain. Razz

Damn near impossible to completely avoid, even if only for a moment. Biden dabbing at his eye, maybe a half second, burned in my mind now.

What is it, exactly, about this guy that demands this type of response to his death?

So, he was a Senator for 30+ years. There have been a lot of 30+ year Senators who have died and none of them received this type of response (that I am aware of...other than perhaps that other piece of shit Kennedy).



The janitor cleaning the Capitol crappers for 30 years deserves more reverence than that little man John McCain.

And yeah, i haven't had any news on the television on for over a week now.

It is very simple. This is all a dig at Trump.

Once McCain became an opponent of President Trump, the press became much kinder to him. Add in his thumbs down on the reversal of Obamacare, and the RINO became the left's favorite Republican. He became what the press deemed as the perfect Republican; a Trump opponent who espoused leftist ideas.

I haven't watched a thing, but I have expected nothing else from the media. Sounds like a shitshow.

I tried to tell y'all the other day that the US Open (tennis) is on ESPN. Just don't turn on the TV before 11:00 am Eastern... Razz I haven't seen one second of that front-hole's funeral proceedings.

That's all true.
John McCain is the poster child for what the Big Media Press thinks all Republicans should be: someone who moves the Republican Party to the left.

It sends a message to every Republican:
You want accolades? You want to get along? You want life to be easy?
Move to the left.... and Join us in the swamp.




"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."

This thread is taking on the joyous qualities of a New Orleans funeral. We're not laughing with you, John, rather at you.

The best coverage of this debacle is the fact that Trump is doing a rally in Evansville if I'm not mistaken

at least he has his priorities right

McCain deserves respect for his military service and as a fellow vet I salute him. But politically the man was a damn RINO. He was one cell short of being a full blown liberal.

Classic case of the left trying to show how warm, tolerant, and embracing of a political opponent they are. Except he was really one of them. Any tears are because the replacement may not be a "maverick".

I respect his military service but, Thank goodness I have a TiVO with a bunch of John Wayne movies saved so I don't have to watch the non-stop canonization show on this rainy week.

It's almost sad that what looks to be only about 37 people showed up outside the cathedral or along the "motorcade" route.

Maybe you weren't as well-loved and respected as you thought, eh Johnny?

And an invitation only funeral? Who does that? "I'm dead now, but I'm giving you permission to have the honor of coming to stare upon my corpse."

I don't want to disrespect anyone's service to this country, but it seems as though he lived off this for the last 50 years. It's like the guy who peaked in high school still wanting to talk about his great exploits as the high school football star decades later.

McCain rode his Vietnam horse until it fell over from exhaustion, then he fed off the carcass like a giant maggot.

Enough.
