Who else is tired of this already?

Turn the channel, skip the articles, life goes on
and you can choose what you want to partake of.
Life is full of things besides the McCain funeral.

Have a nice and blessed day.

Jim Stockdale should have had this if we want to parade someone around after his death.

Why are McCain and Kerry records all sealed, but other military records of true heroes aren't?

Meanwhile, Aretha Franklin, who did more to make America great than John McCain ever did, is having her legacy overlooked.

50 years from now, people will still be playing and enjoying Aretha Franklin’s music. McCain? The only thing that will likely come to mind are those nice frozen French fries.

I’m surprised the Democrats didn’t have live entertainment for McAmnesty’s funeral to help get bigger crowds I heard the Arizona turnout wasn’t that big.

I did see about 2 minutes - from the end of Ryan’s screed to the beginning of Pence’s painful-to-watch obligatory words.

Couple of questions ...

1- Was that McCain’s 1st wife sitting next to Meghan (sp? who gives a crap), in the front and center seat of honor? I thought I saw Cindy farther down the line.

2- President trump gave permission for the coffin and family to be flown from AZ to DC on Air Force Two, yet all media is disregarding this act of kindness and ... honor.

Apparently, AF2 cannot fly without the VP (or 1st lady?) on board, so this may be the only reason Pence was invited?

TMZ is the only outlet who admitted Trump gave this permission, but ONLY at the request of McVain and his family as part of his funeral plans.

Any other outlet I read only said “Air Force passenger jet” or “A plane with ‘United States of America’ written on the side.

Is it more of an insult to Trump to not acknowledge this favor granted?

Or more an insult to McCain to not have it mentioned that was given this honor?

What do you mean by two more weeks of the funeral?
Isn’t it over this Sunday?

I turned on the TV and VP Pence was speaking. Decided to watch just to see who was there. Anyway, I think drawing out a funeral for weeks is horrible for any human. How many times does the family go to the box, lay hands and prey. Once is enough.

LOL news just showed the casket again. NoName must be leaking. There is a woman with a white hose doing something near the floor.

I am so sick of this endless TV coverage of McCain that I would watch an NFL game if it were on TV, and that is saying something.

President Ronald W. Reagan is the first and only time I ever cried about a politician dying.
President Reagan was a genuine patriot who loved this country, the American people, and our Amercan way of life.

Corrections:

President trump - Trump gave permission

at the request of McVain - McCain

Or more an insult to McCain to not have it mentioned that was given this honor? - That this honor was given

They had him frozen in ice so he wouldn’t stink up the place. He is starting to melt and that is a problem.

He was probably dead over a month ago. All of this is show.

I was incredulous on the eliptical last night!

Oh If I could reach thru the TV in front of me and choke him myself it would have been pleasurable.

Just a darn shame!

I was joking about the “two more weeks”.

disregarding this act of kindness

Our President Trump has a heart of Gold.

We are very lucky, I thank God everyday.

After all McCain did to Trump/America!

Dennis Prager just made the point that all this is is an attempt by the Democrats to redefine what is a Republican. (Presumably so that they don't have to hate us ... yet, when McCain was running against obama the Democrats/Leftists didn't have any nice things to say about McCain.)

You're right, of course ... McCain's death is nothing but political theater to the Left.

The press is really going over-the-top on this one.
I was listening to a local talk show this morning and at least twice they broke in for "CBS Breaking News." Both were related to McCain's funeral. Oy.

With apologies to Andrew Lloyd Weber:

Oh what a circus! Oh what a show!
Washington has gone to town
Over the death of a senator called John McCain
We’ve all gone crazy
Mourning all day and mourning all night
Falling over ourselves to get all, of the misery right
