Sitting here in Annapolis, I just heard a military jet go overhead at flight minimum. Final salute to McCaine maybe?

-—Carol McCain was, by all accounts, quite a beauty. She was a 5’ 7” tall, a successful swimsuit model,...-—

Ohhh - don’t tell that to Gretchen Carlson that; that is SOOO offensive. She’ll sue!

“Good riddance to bad rubbish, in my opinion.”

Your post is more than appropriate. You speak for Carol Shepp McCain.
The public philandering of other people of note are known but in so doing, few trashed their family and prostituted themselves like McCain.
Perhaps with today’s funeral, we can say another “long national nightmare is finally over”.

It takes an extraordinarily self center person, one verging on being a sociopath, to willingly divorce themselves from a family they helped to create. I’m not preaching. Not really.
I don’t have any kids, therefore, I cannot speak as someone who has lived that life. Still, I’d like to think I wouldn’t just turn my back on them because I was ‘bored’ with their mother
and the ordinary working class lifestyle she came from. Never mind how much it tore up the family scrapbook of memories.

I don’t know how I would act were I suddenly to become wealthy or famous. Pronounced material advantages have different effects on different people.
Many Hollywood types are known to have done this, for one reason or another. Two of this description would be Jerry Lewis and Bing Crosby,

You’ve told the story better than anyone else has. One other aspect that has to be added is that Cindy was even at that time a socially well connected and very rich heiress, thus further enhancing McCain’s political ambitions.

Carol McCain was wished into the corn field many years ago. Many POW families broke up after the POW’s returned. Many of the wives couldn’t take it, and even if they had not left their husband that discovered that that man was not the same man who left so many years before. All understandable.

But, McCain’s story was different and it appears that he was the one doing the dumping. It was ugly, but the media made sure that she became a non person. This is the first mention that I have seen since McCain died.

Great post.   I agree with all your excellent points.   An honest look at his life reveals he should have been called "Judas John the Betrayer".

This is just one of many reasons that some of think McCain is a scum bag.

I agree completely. But I have to say, I read a story about Carol McCain’s divorce from her first husband. The two men from McCain’s first marriage were actually the product of Carol’s first marriage. The slant of the story sounded like McCain pursued her out of her first marriage to a classmate from Annapolis. She sued her first husband for divorce claiming adultery. McCain did adopt her two sons and they had a daughter together. Carol McCain was quite magnanimous toward John in 2008, but in their divorce decree he was very generous. Just adding more to the story.

Songbird: allegedly, he "sung" to his captors

This assertion puzzles me.

Is it correct that McCain admitted publically that his captor's torture and treatment broke him?

It is all good, dustoff339!

I did not like John McCain either! There are several of my posts on the various McCain threads make that point very clearly!

Thank you for your service!

It is not reported but McCain’s irresponsible actions caused the the deadly fire aboard the Navy aircraft carrier, the USS Forrestal, on July 19, 1967 in the Gulf of Tonkin. crewmen and those who have investigated the case that McCain deliberately “wet-started” his A-4E to shake up the guy in the plane behind his A-4. “Wet-starts”, done either deliberately or accidentally, shoot a large flame from the tail of the aircraft.

In McCain’s case, the “wet-start” apparently “cooked off” and launched the Zuni rocket from the rear F-4 that touched off the explosions and massive fire. The F-4 pilot was reportedly killed in the conflagration. “Wet starting” was apparently a common practice among young “hot-dog” pilots. There were 134 fatalities and 161 injured. More than 20 aircraft were destroyed. The damage forced Forrestal to suspend combat operations as a result of McCain’s ego that has long been covered up.

What a (non) choice we had in 2008. And to think I had to pull a lever for this traitor because I knew what Obama was.

Turns out, they aren’t much different, overall.

I had vague memories of how he mistreated/disrespected his first wife, and had to go to my search engine to find any information.

I too, noticed she became erased from all his adulating bios. The entire show was a circus, but this omission was for me especially egregious!

T Y 4 posting.
