Thank You for your Service Sir
Gotta love it, JohnR starts a thread about McCain's passing and some people just couldn't NOT make it about Trump.
you know, a quick RIP, T&P's or "Thank you for your Service" would have sufficed.

Sorry but it angers me that such disrespect could be shown, his sacrifice of five tortuous years in captivity and decades of service to this nation deserved so much better. Actually I’m surprised you too won’t see that as a sign of disrespect.

It’s actually a Trump like move. He honors American Indians and at the ceremony decides it is the right time to mock Liz Warren.

Never said that, never even inferred it.

I'm not especially interested in what Trump or Obama or the New York Times has to say about a man they loved to kick around when it suited them.
I'm sure it was a celebration up there when McCain was welcomed home. When I think of him the last few days, I keep thinking of an Irish blessing often said for people who spent their lives serving others.
May the road rise up to meet you.
May forever the wind be at your back,
The sun shine warmly upon your face,
The rains fall gently upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of his hands.

Yes - McCain is gonna kill us all, War Monger, We're all gonna Die, he is a rascist. Bet they'll say how honest Romney was and a guiding light and all that when it is his turn.

NT Times Obama endorsement Oct 2008
"Mr. Obama has met challenge after challenge, growing as a leader and putting real flesh on his early promises of hope and change. He has shown a cool head and sound judgment. We believe he has the will and the ability to forge the broad political consensus that is essential to finding solutions to this nation’s problems.
In the same time, Senator John McCain of Arizona has retreated farther and farther to the fringe of American politics, running a campaign on partisan division, class warfare and even hints of racism. His policies and worldview are mired in the past."

john, political expediency is all that matters to these people, they have no principles. none.
that mccain forgave obama, doesn’t mean obama didn’t hit him below the belt. it just means McCain was the better man.
