Massive fail on the part of the participants. Trump had more mentions than the deceased and he wasn't even present!

Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin attended the funeral on Saturday. In 2008 Bill Clinton said: "She and John McCain are very close. They always laugh that if they wound up being the nominees of their party, it would be the most civilized election in American history," "They're afraid they'd put the voters to sleep because they like and respect each other." xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx liking and respecting Hillary Clinton. Good summary of why McCain lost in 2008 | |||

 It wasn't too long ago that libs were calling him a warmonger, for supporting the invasion of Iraq, calling for airstrikes on the NORKs nuclear program, holding Obama's feet to the fire in surging troops to Iraq and ultimately handholding Mattis' nomination to became SecDef. Now they want to appear as fondly reminiscing of a model citizen, a friend across the aisle they could sit together at the lunch time cafeteria. ...how their memories are short and full of it. | |||

I know that liberals, democrats and even some in this thread were saying that Trump is petty and vindictive. I think this funeral has exposed that lie. From speaker after speaker and even McCain's daughter it was one petty, vindictive speech after another. Here's what Trump did:  “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

They simply cannot put their hatred for Trump away even to bury someone they loved. That's the disease of liberalism. If you aren't with them, you're the enemy. RMD TL Davis: “The Second Amendment is special, not because it protects guns, but because its violation signals a government with the intention to oppress its people…” Remember: After the first one, the rest are free. | |||

OK, we have had a week to mourn, piss on his grave, make him a hero, villian, whatever. Can we now let this topic fade off into the dustbin of history. “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this.

That is an excellent choice. Hope he plans to run in two years. "I don't shoot well, but I shoot often." - Pres. T. Roosevelt | |||

I really don't know anything about him. But really? 76 years old? In any case, won't this seat be contested in the upcoming midterms? ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

No. That is Flake’s seat Kyl will serve until 2020, there will be an election to fill the remaining two years at that time. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "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 | |||

Now in Florida |
A good choice for the short-term, but I am curious why Ducey didn't go for a younger conservative that could use the 2 year term to build a record to run on in 2020. | |||
|
| Thank you Very little  |
Hmm I wonder, now why would a one term R governor that wants to move up in politics appoint a short timer to a position they might aspire to hold..... | |||

Well, it is said that the Mccain family approved his replacement. That's a black mark on the guy right out of the blocks in my book. | |||

I don't remember a single mention of him or his successor on The Five or Bret Baier tonight, so it's at least easing a bit. I'm keeping my finger on the channel change button, though, just in case they try and sneak something in on us. Sorta like waiting for an SBD, isn't it? It occurred to me last night that in the nearly 10 years I've been here, and the dozen or more threads I've started, this is probably the longest-lasting one, and the only one I want to see grow old and die.  -------------------------- Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H L Mencken I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. -- JALLEN 10/18/18 | |||
