I’m not knocking your point, but some people do manage to sustain hatred, anger, and all sorts of other emotions for a very long time. My ex’s grandfather kept up a decades-long feud with the farmer who owned the land next to him, for years after the guy died. Took it out on the guy’s wife and kids. I lived next to an elderly widow who was viscerally angry at her late husband for dying and leaving her. He’d been dead 17 years. It’s sad that it happens, but it does.
I sure wish something big would come up for news that would make this go away.
When I walked in the door from work and turned on the TV, the McCain eulogyfest was just ending-having these motorcades to multiple funerals is ridiculous-are people going to tear their clothes and hair and howl like hired mourners at the one in DC? No stunt to appease that McCain ego would surprise me...
McCain was a bitter, angry and hateful man to the end-planning pettiness for his funeral months ahead of time-my grandfather/abuelo who owned a small trucking company was a vengeful person with a (deserved) reputation for going full medieval on his business and personal enemies-but McCain makes him look like an archangel...
” overshadows all that could have been celebrated about the maverick senators life.”
What’s to celebrate?
Patriot? Sided with ISIS and helped push for a new cold war.
Family man? Dumped a loyal wife when she was badly injured in a car wreck, went a found a rich woman with political connections.
Principled? Sold out for Keatings bribes, then squealed on his fellow crooks.
Loyal? Disinvited Sarah to his funeral. Mocked and belittled those seeking to resolve the MIA/POW issue. He was out, so screw the others.
Kind? In the last months of his life never offered any olive branch to anyone.
Successful? Traded on his dad’s name to get plum jobs when anyone else would have long since been bounced outta the Navy.
Good citizen? Constantly belittling and insulting Trump voters and advocated for moslems and mexican hordes flooding into America by the millions.
I agree with everything you said, Desert Rhino. I’m going to be so glad when all this fake news cr@p about the “hero” (BARF!) John McCain is over with.
This looks like more than hatred. A big McCain documentary is timed two weeks after funeral. After MSM spends two weeks brainwashing public about Saint McCain. The documentary lays out a case against Trump and the evidence is presented by Hillary and McCain’s never Trumpers. Could they use that documentary as justification for a civil attack ? What is going on in New Mexico ? Where are all of McCains terrorist pals ?
