Sen. John McCain warns against 'spurious nationalism' in Liberty Medal speech
http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/16/politics/john-mccain-joe-biden-liberty-medal/index.html
"We live in a land made of ideals, not blood and soil," McCain said. "We are the custodians of those ideals at home, and their champion abroad. We have done great good in the world. That leadership has had its costs, but we have become incomparably powerful and wealthy as we did. We have a moral obligation to continue in our just cause, and we would bring more than shame on ourselves if we don't. We will not thrive in a world where our leadership and ideals are absent. We wouldn't deserve to."

though I've disagreed with John McCain a lot over the years and been frustrated by him at times, make no mistake about it, he's a great American.

And the self proclaimed "patriots" of this country are wishing that a former POW dies soon from brain cancer. Sickening.

We have a draft dodging coward in The White House. Trump has lived his entire life with hired muscle to back up his mouth.

here is McCain's reponse:
Responding to Trump's threat, McCain bluntly told reporters Tuesday: "I've faced far greater challenges than this."
I know that the sexual predator doesn't respect POW's.. but I suspect that McCain has withstood more than the fat, sweaty, orange, disease-riddled sexual predator could ever dish out.

The coward we elected President is a real badass when it comes to threatening a 81 year old man with terminal cancer who is also a highly decorated USN fighter pilot who was held as a POW for years.
As a USN Viet Nam Veteran I am ashamed to see this ass clown in The White House
