RIP Senator McCain

So... huh. Not sure what to think about this piece.

Magary on McCain

Yeah he supported a ton of shitty policies, but he did understand at the end of the day we are American's who disagree. (The campaign Obama video, etc). Compared to the rest of the party, I guess that says a lot.

Apparently some people feel he is a racist for how he answered the lady about obama

Who? Other racists? The majority of people are dumb as a fucking turnip.

Eh, the author comes off sounding like he wished that McCain was a democrat instead.

That's how I kind of read it.

So a racist, bigoted christian sexual predator and five time draft dodger doesn't respect a man that epitomizes what makes America great?

Shocking.

So the former host of the Apprentice finally got shamed into doing the right thing? Honestly, that's shocking.

It'll be fun watching these patriotic racists pretend to be outraged when ungrateful rich colored boys peacefully protest police brutality.

So the Prez wont respond when asked if McCain was a hero. We're talking about a guy who spent 5 years as a POW when he could have went home.......

There's really only one demographic left that supports this guy, right? I'm mean....if we're being honest.

I bet if a colored boy takes a knee during the National Anthem, he'll suddenly become "patriotic" and dig down deep and find a love for America.

Seriously, aren't his people running out of "angles" of support? You can't really use Merica anymore. He's basically shit on a war hero. Then again shitting on gold star families has no effect....

Friends since the 90's apparently. A mutual desire to see campaign finance reform.

Hillary called his supporters "deplorables" for a reason.

in a shock to nobody, here's a mainstream media article taking up for the draft-dodging, racist, bigoted sexual predator as it relates to Sen. McCain.

(CNN)Sen. John McCain's heroism and code of honor, duty and unifying pragmatism will endure as a powerful historical example. But his political legacy met its match in President Racist, Bigoted Sexual Predator, who has prevailed in their struggle for the current soul of the GOP.

As the 2008 Republican presidential nominee leaves the stage, the trajectory of his party is ever more aligned with the worldview and combative attitudes of the racist, bigoted sexual predator.

Caution: Mainstream Media Link

I have to hand it to Trump the gracelessness towards McCain got everyone to stop talking about Cohen/Manafort/Impeachment.

everyone but Mueller and the NYSD courts.

Someone tell me again how "gracious" McCain was.

Bans Palin from his funeral....this after essentially ruining
her political career.

Keep in mind that she had the highest approval rating of
any Governor in America when he chose her.

The ONLY time he led in the polls when after he chose her
and momentarily got the R base onboard.

Then his campaign staff spent the next 10 years stabbing the
shit out of her. Blaming her for a loss they were in charge of.

And to my knowledge she's never disparaged McCain, always
complimented him.

And he does this to her. He was a bitter, vindictive old man
and has been for decades.

RIP but quit lionizing him. The Dems loved him when he
attacked Trump but they hated him when he supported
Bush and ran against Obama.

Sen. John McCain and his family can do whatever they want to do as it relates to his funeral and memorial service.

I'm sorry that you're upset by that.

Tired of the Trumpsters using this line.  It's bullshit, and, although I know Goose probably knows that, I can only say, that those who do have their head so far up their hatefilled ass, they will never understand that there are always many of us who will not agree with the politics of certain people, but we respect the person for various reasons.   Trump guys can't do that.  If they disagree with Trump, they must be assholes.  It's that easy.  

And fuck anyone who says we shouldn't "lionize" this man who was a prisoner of war for 5 and 1/2 years.  Who would say that?  He couldn't put a suit jacket on without help for christs sake.  Do I think he did some wrong things or had some misteps in politics? Yep, but for this 57 year old who knew about Vietnam and was damn glad I didn't need to join it or the army, this man fucking rocked.  And he had balls.  I wish he was more liberal, but I'm glad he had the balls to help make my life better.

pretty strange that they hate the man so much that they whine about the invitation list to his memorial service... while celebrating a 5 time draft dodger.

it's a weird world.

So much for "conservative" personal accountability....

Keep in mind that she had the highest approval rating of

Alaska....Thats like saying Jim Harbaugh has the highest approval rating of any coach in America based on a poll taken in Schembechler Hall

The ONLY time he led in the polls when after he chose her
and momentarily got the R base onboard.

A bump any candidate in the history of, oh I don't know.....ever, gets.

Then his campaign staff spent the next 10 years stabbing the
shit out of her. Blaming her for a loss they were in charge of.

"I read lots of newspapers....uh....any of theones in front of me over the years. Can you think of any supreme court cases outside of Roe v Wade that are central to your beliefs? Uh....well....Grizzley momma....gays....I can see russia from my house....uh....snow machines....uh....Trig!!!

And to my knowledge she's never disparaged McCain, always

She should, he's the only reason she's remotely relevant today.

And he does this to her. He was a bitter, vindictive old man
and has been for decades.

What exactly did he do to her? Did he hurt the Grizzly momma witto feelings? I thought she was a tough Alaska gal.

RIP but quit lionizing him. The Dems loved him when he

I don't think anybody hated him. If he won I'm sure I could learn to like the way he governed.

snowflakes are gonna snowflake.

what poor little Sarah Palin, the racist, bigoted sexual predator and the deplorables are really upset about is that the McCain memorial will illustrate and honor what is best about America. And they're not invited.

We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard working very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation. This is where we find the kindness and the goodness and the courage of everyday Americans.

The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s "death panel" so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their "level of productivity in society," whether they are worthy of health care.

Sarah Palin: Well, North Korea, this is stemming from a greater problem, when we're all sitting around asking, "Oh no, what are we going to do" and we're not having a lot of faith that the White House is going to come out with a strong enough policy to sanction what it is that North Korea's gonna do. So this speaks to a bigger picture that certainly scares me in terms of our national security policy. But obviously, we've got to stand with our North Korean allies. We're bound to by treaty. We're also bound to by—

Steve Burguiere: South Korean.

Palin: Yes, and we're also bound by prudence to stand with our South Korean allies, yes.

This is Reagan country, and perhaps it was destiny that the man who went to California's Eureka College would become so woven within and interlinked to the Golden State.

Eureka college is in Illinois....

But yeah, McCain ruined her career.......

Joe Biden at the McCain memorial in Arizona:

"My name is Joe Biden. I'm a Democrat. And I love John McCain".

you know that drives the America-hating right up a wall.

Lol at ruined Sarah Palins career after giving her the platform she needed to help unleash this insane cancer that’s been spreading through the Republican Party for a decade.

That’s about the stupidest thing you’ve ever said, and you’ve said some stupid ass shit.

Not that Sarah Palin started this. It’s been festering for decades. She definitely helped to let it loose though.

Ruined her career.... come on man.

of course republicans would line up behind a failed governor who couldn't even serve out her term, raises a domestic abuser and a child who has a few kids out of wedlock..  versus praising an American hero.
