Nearing the end of his life, Sen. John McCain wants Americans to know that he deems his proudest accomplishment was my loss to Barrack Obama in the 2008 election. At the time I didnt appreciate it, but in hindsight my role stands out as a key turning point in US history.
Had I won that election it wouldve been an unremarkable repeat of something that had already happened several times in previous presidential electionsa white war hero wins, the Senator observed. But by bungling my campaignsuspending it in late September so I could focus on the economic crisis and muzzling my charismatic running mateI effectively handed the job to a man who will go down as the greatest person to ever hold the office.
My second proudest moment was when I cast the decisive vote in preventing the Senate from repealing Obamacare, he added. My hope is that preserving governments role in mandating the type and quantity of medical insurance everyone must buy we keep the country on the road toward the kind of comprehensive system only available to veterans in this country and in the more enlightened European countrieslike the enveloping and tireless care the United Kingdoms National Health Service provided Alfie Evans right up to the day he died.
In related news, The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg contends that I dont think anybody in their right mind can point to anything that Trump supposedly has done to benefit African-Americans. To say that he has is what I call The Big Lie. Goldberg brushed off statistics indicating that Black unemployment hit a record low last month, saying Blacks had full employment during slavery. Making Black folks work is a step backward. Now, if Trump had put more white people to work to pay reparations to Black folks like Obama did, then we could respect him.

Aircraft carriers? Yeah, we know. NONE of the responsibility/blame falls on the “hero”. Uh, superior obstructionist POS?
McCain is a rare Cold War ace: Crashed, ejected from, burned up, got shot down in, or destroyed FIVE enemy (er, US Navy) planes!
McCain is a rare NORTH VIETNAMESE Cold War ace:
So many successes and accomplishments and yet no one can name any of them.
I really can’t think of anything that he has done....except to obstruct President Trump at every turn.
Songbird Act II during the Keating 5 affair. Was identified as the major leaker of information that was most damaging to his colleagues. Diversionary tactic to point blame away from his attempts to influence regulators.
They call those “Black Aces”.
In hindsight, Juan, I agree with you. It was much better having “Democrat” attached to 8 years of failure than Republican. You Rhino, wacked, traitor, who rose to power with the same chutzpah as a libtard. Just like Crybaby Tapper who will never be the next Sam Donaldson, you will never be the second Goldwater.
McCain just needs to have his anal glands expressed.......
Didn’t McLame author that all-time favorite ditty “Let’s All Sing Like The Birdy Sings”?
