I want him alive and hung for treason.

" … My father's legacy is going to be talked about for hundreds and hundreds of years," she said. "These people: nothingburgers. Nobody will remember you.”

Percy Shelley's "Ozymandias"

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert... near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed;


And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings;
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone aand level sands stretch far away.

This will be the new media story ad nauseum.

Sounds like something Ted Kennedy would say and I’d be willing to bet he said the exact thing to McCain to get him to start spying for the DNC.

Hundreds and hundreds of years? I wonder how many know anything about his father or grandfather? Case closed on that issue.

[confederatecarpetbag]

Not to sound insensitive but... Is McCain dead yet?

[Bodega]

Meghan must have an EGO like her dad’s. Too bad, Meghan, we don’t care and it doesn’t matter because your dad is almost dead, dear. I hope you are ready for his very real absence. Most of us are, you know.

[confederatecarpetbag]

McCain will always be remembered as Songbird. That’s his legacy Meghan. Oh, and also Keating 5. And that he ran as Republican and lost because he sounded more Democrat than Obama

[King Moonracer]

They’ll Remer him like a bad joke.

How many John McCains does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Only one, and it will be stupidly screwed for a long time.

Meghan McCain will no longer be useful to the liberals when her father dies. She will end up like the Wellstone family members. Kicked out.

There is another reason he doesn’t matter: he is a noxious, venomous asshole!

Some time ago, back during the 2016 election, I was searching for a one-word pejorative term equivalent to “harridan” to hang on Tim Kaine, given that Hitlery, a noxious, venomous harridan, had selected the male equivalent (i.e. Tim Kaine) to be here running mate.

I went looking for a term that would apply to a male noxious, venomous “harridan.”

One of my buddies over at FReeRepublic.com suggested “asshole,” which on first glance just may be too strong a term to use, and certainly not in polite company.

HST, here is Merriam Webster’s definition: “a bad, stupid, or annoying person.”

WELL! A male harridan = “asshole!”

McCain is, ergo sum, a noxious, venomous asshole!

And, I cannardly wait for him to shuffle off this mortal coil!

[Merriam Webster is my FRiend, as is my FReeRepublic buddy for suggesting “asshole” to me!]

Perhaps the words could have been better chosen but the point was that McCain is now irrelevant to what’s going on - and doubly so because if he was in-house and voting, he’d be a vote against instead of a non-vote...

[mdmathis6]

I’ll always remember the story of when he cast the vote against ending Obama care and he was quoted as sarcastically stating...”let’s see Trump “make America great again”, now” while basking in the applause and approval to other senate Dem’s. His vote was one of real harm to America!

It’s not that he doesn’t matter because he’s dying. He doesn’t matter because he’s a traitorous asshole.
