What do you say in the end about McCain?

[initforme]

One I the most patriot Americans ever. He spoke his mind and didn't tow the idiotic moronic stupified "party line" for every little thing and the more he angers some of you the more I respect him.

 

[kaz]

The OP almost certainly agrees with 90% of McCain's voting record. But 90% ain't good enough.

You should know after what you did to Joe Lieberman. Leftists just down own mirrors, do you?

I did nothing to Joe Lieberman.

You deflect.

Exactly, that's my point. You didn't say things like this when leftists attacked Lieberman, "The OP almost certainly agrees with 90% of Lieberman's voting record. But 90% ain't good enough."

You're a dyed in the wool hypocrite like all leftists

 

[initforme]

Towing the party line is despicable. Going against party lines now and then is honorable.

Oh! Leftists attacked Lieberman? No kidding!

Dude. You are a Trump supporter. Consider that.

Dying a bitter and hateful man. How sad.

 

[The Original Tree]

McCain coughed up info to the Viet Cong and that's why they kept him alive. When he came home he spent the rest of his life being a RINO and betraying in numerous underhanded ways the very people who were dumb enough to elect him to office. When he dies, he'll be remembered as a bitter vengeful old man owned by The Russians and Weapons Industry.

Trump supporters:

John McCain---Boo! Hiss! Traitor!

Kim Jung Un---Yay! Honorable! USA! USA!

IMHO:

1. Was Senator McCain a genuine hero? I do not know, so he should be given the benefit of the doubt.

a. No doubt his feelings were hurt when candidate Donald J. Trump publicly belittled the Senator's hero status.

2. Senator McCain, among other Senators, showed us why there should be term limits in the Senate (and the House and on the Supreme Court).

3. Senator McCain obviously thought highly of himself. To be fair, it takes a big ego to run for (and win) public office. So I guess that he cannot be faulted for that.

I am sure that his family and friends and some of his constituents will very much miss him.

You ought to be using the present tense. He ain't dead yet.

He is not a "good man" by any stretch of the imagination. He was a Navy brat, and never really progressed from that level.

His conduct during the Vietnam conflict rises to the level of "hero," but just barely. He was a fly-boy with minimal chance of being shot down or captured, and otherwise led a privileged life as a fighter pilot. After capture, it is said that he refused to be freed early due to his father's position, and maybe that was heroic.

He did nothing particularly noteworthy as a Senator or a Presidential candidate, and his "public service" has become less honorable as time goes by. At this point, he is nothing more than a spiteful hanger-on.

Since he refuses to step down, the honorable thing would be to die. Sooner rather than later.

 

[Votto]

I think McCain was a military hero. But wow, what a complete douche of a human being as a Senator. What say you?

Despite graduating in the bottom 1 percent of his Annapolis class, McCain was offered the most sought-after Navy assignment, it was to become an aircraft carrier pilot.

Why? Cuz his daddy and grand daddy was a 4 star Admiral.

It was then rumored that McCain would never make Admiral, so he sought becoming a Congressman instead.

In fact, when it came to his release as a prisoner, it is argued that the Pentagon gave the release of McCain top priority over others cuz, you guessed it, his daddy.

What really put me over the edge about McCain was how he treated the VA scandal in Arizona. Doctors reached out to McCain about the secret death lists for veterans and you would think being Mr. veteran super star he would have run to their aid. Instead, those who reached out to him were fired. Had it not been for an obscure Congressmen from Florida, the story probably would never have been leaked.

Nope, McCan't was all about himself and career and bad at whatever he did.

Mcain is one of the most honorable men who has ever lived. An honorable man to the end. McCain has more honor in one of his gray hairs than Trump has in his entire obese body.

John McCain a war criminal, not a war hero - Liberation News

Fake news for retards. Are your bone spurs acting up?

McCain represents zero conservatives, he is 100% progressive

About the PSL

The Party for Socialism and Liberation is comprised of leaders and activists, workers and students, of all backgrounds. Organized in branches across the country, the PSL brings together a new generation of revolutionaries alongside veterans of the people’s movements with decades of experience.

The PSL is deeply involved in a wide range of struggles, from local battles over affordable housing and racist police brutality, to the fight for a higher minimum wage and union rights, to the global issues of imperialist war and environmental destruction.

We are united in our belief that capitalism—the system in which all wealth and power is held by a tiny group of billionaires and their state—is the source of the main problems confronting humanity today. It must be replaced by socialism, a system where poor and working people have power and the wealth of society is used in a planned and sustainable way to meet people’s needs.

Our mission is to link the everyday struggles of oppressed and exploited people to the fight for a new world. Join us!

That’s why I posted it, Everyone thinks McCain is a coward

I don't know what he did in the military other than what I have heard and that usually is half bullshit. I do know he is a sorry politician and and classic political traitor who does nothing but what the puppet masters tell him.

 

[tyroneweaver]

When I saw what an abysmal human being McCain became it makes you reflect on what kind of soldier he was or wasn’t
A leopard doesn’t change his spots

 

[Tijn Von Ingersleben]

What made him a military hero? I have aways failed to understand his heroic actions. He was a PoW who publicly violated articles four and five of the code of conduct.

 

[mikegriffith1]

I think we have to keep in mind that Trump accused McCain of not being a hero and came close to accusing him of betraying his country (because McCain signed a torture-induced "confession").

On balance, I like McCain and wish he had beaten Obama in 2008.

I voted for the guy then and in the 2000 primary. He voted his conscience and thought the country should pull together. He should have ran earlier and harder than he did in 2000
