Good thing they only have to carry his body and not his ego.

no Sarah Palin? lol.

I swear there’d be less fuss if the Queen of England died.

it’s so bizarre, it can only be explained as the Deep State protecting one of their own beyond the grave.

I was thinking the same thing. Those caskets are heavy. I remember all my young cousins as pallbearers for grandma’s funeral. Carrying that casket down a washed out road with tree roots everywhere behind the church, I just knew we were going to have a disaster or I was going to have a coronary. By God’s grace we made it to the gravesite.

I used to say it back then. It really seemed like McCain probably did vote Obama in that voting booth.

Obama has zero American black roots. You’re right. He had to affect his accent. But he had the mocha skin and that white demeanor the left wanted to play the white Lefties and Gullibles with. And black people just loved that they lived to vote for a black person for President (not just a weak primary candidate like the Revrund JJ). Any black person would do. Too bad it was not Sowell or Williams or Elder.

Given the current level of TDS and need for the current and former corruptocrats to “get Trump” before he shows just how rotten and rigged the system is, the chances for Wellstone II, Resistance Boogaloo are excellent.

Exposing McCain’s own role in this, after all the public wailing over the corpse of St. John the Trump-hater, might be be one of the Trumpiest things I can think of.

Dobb is great, I agree.
I read that there will be a horse drawn carriage with the “remains”.
I may watch, I’m rooting for the horses to “comment “ on the occasion.

Well lookie there. During a trip to Turkey in 2014 to discuss arming Syrian rebel groups, under the auspices of fighting ISIS, you see Representative Adam Kinzinger appear. Oh yeah, and who’s that other fellow circled in the meeting? ….why that’s our anti-Trump candidate Evan McMullin.

To put aside all the obvious ridiculous ness, just in the first place, pall bearers should always be the young men of the family and friends. 17 to 29. If you can’t get that kind of a group together especially as a supposed statesman then somethings up.

But I’m Irish. And we specialize in waking the dead So that’s just me

at a “celebrity” funeral sometimes the other older celebrities walk along side while younger people inside them do the heavy lifting.

Not one person on that list would I consider a decent human being, although several years ago there were a couple of them that I thought didn’t completely suck. (I was wrong)

I wondered about that too. Isn’t at least one of his sons a Navy Officer? One would think he’d be taking his Dress Whites to the Cleaners right now. Maybe they weren’t all that close.

Career politicians can get sort of married to their work.
Politics ends up fulfilling all their personal needs, usually by proxy. Look at Nancy Pelosi, almost 80, and still, has no interest in staying at home with her family. The Senate is her real family now.
