John McCain is the most despicable “republican” in the history of the party.

“John McCain is the single greatest political leader of our time”

In fantasy land.
Real life: Worst, most treacherous US Senator ever, lower than the worst snake.

Ever hear McCain be equally critical, or really critical at all of a Democrat?

Why would he be critical of someone in the party to which he really belongs? He hardly fits the bill as a RINO.

Milbank was one of the Journolist members in 2008 who was savagely attacking both McCain and Palin, while openly campaigning for 0bama.

What they mean is: John McCain is the single greatest political tool (and fool) of our time. We’ll really miss pulling his puppet strings by pretending to like him, getting him to be our attack dog on the other side of the aisle.

Vindictiveness and failure DEFINE John McCain...

Graduated #893 of 899 from the Naval Academy, despite having TWO 4-star Admirals in his family (father and grandfather)...
Crashed multiple aircraft in the Navy, and seems to brag about it...
Gets shot down and captured by North Vietnam, and starts giving the enemy so much intel that he gets called Songbird...
Divorced his wife because she was disfigured in a car wreck...
His own children refused to attend his second wedding...
Opposed MLK Day as a new Congressman...
Was a big part of the Keating Five scandal, and yet faces no punishment...
As a member of the 1991–1993 Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs, chaired by John Kerry, the committee's unanimous report stated there was "no compelling evidence that proves that any American remains alive in captivity in Southeast Asia"...
Authored the McCain-Feingold bill, again cooperating with Democrats, limiting political contributions...
In 1997, McCain became chairman of the powerful Senate Commerce Committee; he was criticized for accepting funds from corporations and businesses under the committee's purview, but in response said the small contributions he received were not part of the big-money nature of the campaign finance problem...
During the 2000 Primaries, a reporter said, Songbird "McCain talked so much that sometimes he said things that he shouldn't have, and that's why the media loved him"...
In the Primary contest, he made a speech in Virginia Beach that criticized Christian leaders, including Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell, as divisive conservatives...
2001, the vindictiveness begins: opposes Bush's HMO reform, supports gun restrictions, supports climate change, voted against the Bush Tax Cuts, and again in 2003...
Defended Jumping Jim Jeffords move to take away GOP majority in the Senate...
He and Dem Joe Lieberman authored the 9/11 Commission...
He and Dem Fritz Hollings federalize airport security and create the TSA...
He and Liebeman author a cap-and-trade bill for carbon emissions...
Was nearly named Dem Kerry's VP pick in the 2004 election...
2005, led the Gang of 14 to block Bush judicial nominees...
Worked with Dem Ted Kennedy on Amnesty...
Runs for President again in 2008, chooses Sarah Palin to run with him, and spends the next decade stabbing her in the back for being the more popular of the two...
2013, was in the Gang of Eight, again trying for amnesty...
2017, cast the deciding vote to retain ObamaCare, after winning re-election by promising to end it...

He was a creepy old curmudgeon with a mini-me growing out the side of his cheek and a hyper inflated ego that even now needs to be stroked.

Reminds me of the Baron Harkonen from Dune. He’s going to die staring at the mirror admiring himself.

Don’t know if he gave up useful intel.

Songbird McCain gave the flight paths and logistics of US bombing runs to help North Vietnamese anti-aircraft improve their accuracy.

Better than Obama? I'm glad the Liberals admitted that much!

This should be no surprise. It has long been obvious that the fifth-column leftist media, like the Washington Compost steals oxygen and excretes lies.

Dana Milbank, adamant Obama supporter, enabler, and co-conspirator has no morality to lecture others with.

Don’t omit his role in creating and arming ISIS. Just doing his duty, putting his country above himself.

John McCain is the single greatest political leader of our time!

Except for the fact that even with the able assistance of Sarah Palen he couldn't win an election over an air-headed
illegal alien muslim mulatto who had no birth certificate and no specific politial platform other than 'Hope n' Change'.

His daughter said he’s going to be remembered for hundreds of years...more likely he’ll be forgotten in a decade.
