You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
I am a lifelong Democrat. He represented the politics the country should have. My prayers are with his family. He was a man of integrity who loved his country. May God grant him eternal rest!
ReplyDeleteEverything the current occupant of the White House can never be.
ReplyDeleteThe very first time I began to doubt Trump was the interview in which he stated that he did not consider Senator McCain a hero, because he was a POW.

Legend
ReplyDeletePOW/MIA and Trump bumper stickers are incompatible. Don't pretend otherwise. McCain is a modern time Founding Father. A man of honor.
ReplyDeletethanks for obama care
ReplyDelete10:38 is Rolf Oeler, a real piece of shit.
ReplyDeleteHe served ; the President didn`t , despite 5 years of military school.
ReplyDeleteAny attempt to use McCain's death to take a shot at him is classless. It is equally classless to use his death to take a shot at Trump.
ReplyDeleteMay Captain McCain Rest in Peace.
ReplyDeleteMay he gently go into the good cognizant he was blessed with a consequential life making a constructive difference. God speed Senator
ReplyDeleteIt is very telling that Senator McCain wanted George Bush and Barak Obama to give the eulogies. Also to not want Donald Trump at the funeral. It is a sad commentary.
ReplyDeleteHe wanted uniters, not dividers.
ReplyDeleteAs a Democrat I found it hard to not like McCain. With the exception of choosing Palin the man had a stellar career. It should be a wake up all to true Republicans that the asshole in office is yet again uninvited to a funeral. How long are you going to try to cover for that POS.
ReplyDeleteMy heroes dont get captured, #MAGA
ReplyDeleteNo, your hero managed to duck serving his country completely. What a patriot!
