John McCain Appreciation

I think someone should have started a John McCain criticism thread for the people that don’t know what respect and appreciation are.

I disagreed with McCains’s politics and did not vote for him.

I can still respect people that I disagree with.

McCain was unique and maybe a throwback to a time where elected officials would act on country over party.

I can appreciate that he cast the vote that would sink the ACA repeal.

I can appreciate that he carried himself respectfully.

The things that he pursued that I disagreed with were things he believed, vs. things to get votes or toe the party line.

As far as I can tell, everyone is respecting him. I doubt anyone is protesting a private funeral service or harassing his family.

Telling the truth does not mean people lack respect. Whatever next? Do you accuse people of dying in order to shut down debate?

Pat Buchanan on the John McCain 2008 platform:

"He says the jobs are never coming back, the illegals are never coming home, and we're going to have a lot more wars."

How can you respect someone with what he did as far as foreign policy is concerned? This isn't disagreement on petty issues. Put yourself in the shoes of those in the middle east on the receiving end of the us war machine.

YAWN: He refused to bend over for your Trump, like you do on a daily basis.

Respect: "due regard for the feelings, wishes, or rights of others"

I think McCain is a bad man, but Trump is worse. I think many people agree with me. In fact there are people on the Left who criticise McCain as well.

Lets all take a moment to thank a true American patriot and all he’s done for the good of the country. Thank you John Mcains brain tumor for ridding us of that war monger, songbird, Obamacare loving, globalist controlled opposition, abandoner of disabled wives nightmare of a senator.

Classy. This what most right wingers stand for today : rudely, classlessly, and callously as possible slamming someone who just died, someone who no matter what bad things you think he did, also did a TON of good things for our country and for many individuals he met. This is sport for them. This is entertainment for them. This is more or less what they live for. And why McCain? Because despite supporting conservative causes many times over, and being a vet that they usually "STAND WITH!", McCain didn't 100 % toe the line on Right Wing Religious Dogmas of: "Tax Cuts for the Rich!

Global Warming is a Myth! Torturing Muslims is Funny and Cool! Throw out the Mexicans! Racism against blacks is Ancient History! Obama is a Muslim Terrorist Sympathizer! (or one himself!) Big Business Can Do No Wrong!"

So because he went against their extreme right wing stances, they cast him out, call him a traitor and villain, and $Hit all over his service to this country. What....A.....Bunch....Of.......CLOWNS.

And this is why they love Trump: he too is a worthless person with no class who only lives for rudely insulting people.

John McCain did 100000x more for our country, had a 100000x more class, and 10000x more integrity, than has/does Trump.

If you believe anything, believe that.

An imperfect man but an American war hero and a man who showed class and integrity both in running for president and in his long career, six terms, in the Senate. He was often rated among the most conservative in the Senate and did not always resist the worst of Bush but stood tallest in his response to Trump.

More evidence of this “patriots” legacy...

LOL! I am not saying he did nothing wrong here, but from your own link:

"After a lengthy investigation, the Senate Ethics Committee determined in 1991 that Cranston, DeConcini, and Riegle had substantially and improperly interfered with the FHLBB's investigation of Lincoln Savings, with Cranston receiving a formal reprimand. Senators Glenn and McCain were cleared of having acted improperly but were criticized for having exercised "poor judgment ".

When all is said and done about Trump, after all those investigations, do you think anyone will say he " acted improperly AND exercised poor judgment" ?? It's already a 100% given. But let me guess, Trump fan, huh?

Sounds about right.

Also, I've seen some people bring up him leaving his first wife. Yeah, that sounds pretty bad the way it went down.

But I hope none of the Trump fan boys are bringing that up as a criticism. How many wives has Trump left? He was having affairs left and right as Melania was pregnant and then right after giving birth. One of his wives (ivana?) accused him of RAPING her.

Don't bring up wife treatment Trumpsters, you really don't wanna go there when attacking others.

John McCains’ mom is 106!!!!! And buried John?!!

As Americans we all voted for or against John McCain. That's all we could do as citizens of our great country but many people nowadays have to vent their frustrations about the results of elections. This is so stupid and a waste of time.

Same for Trump....you either voted for or against him and now thee is nothing you can do until 2020......but stupid liberals

could not accept defeat gracefully and have spent 2 years trying to undo the election. Immature, un American please shut your pie holes get a job and move on.

mccain will rot in hell.

There is a 1st amendment before the 2nd. I have to listen to your crap. So don't tell me to shut the pie hole you a hole
