John McCain: Salute to a Communist

NY Times ^ | March 24, 2016 | John McCain

[C19fan]

AN interesting obituary appeared in The New York Times recently, though the death of its subject last month was largely unnoticed beyond his family and friends.

That’s not surprising. Delmer Berg wasn’t a celebrity. He wasn’t someone with great wealth or influence. He had never held public office. He was a Californian. He worked as a farmhand and stonemason. He did some union organizing. He was vice president of his local N.A.A.C.P. chapter. He protested against the Vietnam War and nuclear weapons. He joined the United States Communist Party in 1943, and, according to The Times, he remained an “unreconstructed Communist” for the rest of his life. He was 100.

Disgusting piece. Imagine McCain writing a piece of some American who decided to fight for the Nazis. Plenty of non-German nationals joined various Waffen SS units.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

Then McCain wonders why people hate him. PEOPLE OF ARIZONA PLEASE THROW HIM OUT OF OFFICE.

[TontoKowalski]

McCain's primary opponent should come out and endorse Trump NOW.

Put the pressure on McCain. All she has to do is say, "The people of Arizona spoke loudly, and it's high time someone in the Senate listened to the people of Arizona."

I think she'd win in a rout.

Fighting in the Lincoln Brigade for the Bolsheviks. Is McCain off his meds?

[hattend]

Send her an email suggesting just that

[irishjuggler]

Many of these Lincoln Brigade types were guilty of treason against the United States-- directly collaborating with the KGB to undermine national security. Remember the Soviet agent in the recent movie Bridge of Spies? He was in the U.S. with a phony identity created by the KGB on the basis of documents supplied to them by American leftists in the Spanish Civil War.

Franco wasn't perfect, but the other side was worse. And, as is typical for him, McCain is cheerleading for the wrong side here.

It is one thing to go over to Spain see the truth and change your mind, for example, Orwell. It is another to still be a Communist after Spain, after Stalin’s purges, and after the publication of the Gulag Archipelago. This man McCain is writing about was an unequivocal supporter of a regime of mass murder.

[Lazamataz]

He writes glowingly about unrepentant communists, but calls convervatives ‘Whacko Birds.’

I will celebrate John McCain when he dies of natural causes.

McLame loves commies.

[amnestynone]

If you guys want to stop talking about throwing McCain out and do something about here is the web site of his opponent where you can donate to same cause. http://www.kelliward.com/

To think the GOP nominated this guy for president.

The Russians, Spanish, Germans, Italians, Finns, Poles, Romanians, and on and on, all feared the commies...for good reason. I still find it hard to believe the “greatest generation” fought for them.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Lets not forget McStain’s prediction that Trump would lose AZ bigtime. Strike out. LOL!

[WMarshal]

Phuck you Jaun McLame.

[Gay State Conservative]

Are we *sure* that McLame was at the Hanoi Hilton and not in Ho Chi Minh’s “Presidential” Palace?

[Olog-hai]

Every time McCain does stuff like this, I ask a question just like that.
