Capt. Eddington of “In Harm’s Way” comes to mind when thinking of his time in the military.

Is it me or is the non-stop fawning over him becoming tiresome? I don’ remember such hullaballoo over President Reagan, though I do remember the massive lines with people of all colors waiting to pay their repects to him. Somehow I don’t predict that for the Senator.

I once read that during the Communist rule in Poland, people would make a point of taking their evening walk when the Communist run TV news was broadcast. When the MSM/Democrat/RINO combine perform their week long mourning ritual and Trump bashing, real Americans should follow the lead of the Poles under the Communist yoke and ignore it.

Sorry Inez. I did not vote for McCain the last two times he was up for reelection. I did not vote for Senator during both of those elections. I figured, the liberals were going to reelect McCain anyway, why should I waste my time voting for him.

It will be great when we no longer have to read or hear that Godawful name (mccain) every 2 minutes.

He’s dead, gone, and soon to be buried. He was one of the worst senators in American history and a traitor to Arizona, the republican party, and the American people - repeatedly.

I’d like to have a roll of toilet paper with his name on it just so I could wipe my ass with it repeatedly.

The real héros were the ones that died trying to put out the fire to save the USS Forestal that the stupid SOB set by touching off his afterburners on the flight deck.

You can check my posts and see that I hated McCain as much as the next guy, but he did not not start the Forrestal fire. The missile that started the fire came from a plane on the other side of the deck.

I can’t even stand to watch t.v. this week. McCain’s death pre-empted one of my favorite Fox shows, Greg Gutfeld. Also Jesse Watters. LOL!

I’ll stick to Netflix or Crave, or, better yet, take a walk as my doctor wants me to do. ;)

I stand corrected, Kevin. He’s still a RAT-loving POS, IMHO.
Since FR does not offer an edit feature for our postings, I’ll do my corrected repost here:
“..When the pack of low-life, slimly RATs suck up to a POS like this, it speaks VOLUMES of what he really was.
The real heros were the ones that died trying to put out the fire to save the USS Forestal....”

Even Judge Janine, who should know better, was in this insane lovefest. Then when she interviewed Mike Huckabee, who recalled his fond memories of McTraitor, I puked.

Apparently McCain resorted to his true self in the immediate aftermath, though. Once escaping his plane he watched the proceedings in a safe place on closed-circuit TV rather than helping. He was also quickly airlifted off the ship to the exclusion of others before the fire was out and all the dead had been recovered, presumably because of the status of his father and grandfather. McCain was a guy who whenever given the chance to do the right thing did the wrong thing. He was despicable and this lionization of him among certain circles is sickening.

I’m not turning the TV back on til he’s in the ground and salt on the grave.

Judge Jeanine too?! You ‘re right, no kidding. We’ll be subjected to this for a while. *sigh*

Too bad "His Country" wasn't the United States of America. "His Country" was John McCain.
