Oh, I see. So, McCain demonstrating what a petty imbecile he really is, on his death bed, immunizes him from obverse commentary?

He might have actually gone with dignity now, he will be remembered for his ignominy....

I always joke when the death penalty has dispatched an evildoer from the planet.Selfish media hog McCain needs to give up the paycheck and retire so Arizona can have full representation. He is not any less sleazier just because he is dying.

"But reveling in Barbara Bush’s death was OK."

Yes apparently that was even OK on FR from some of the post I saw.

Consider the way he is acting, by giving death bed curses to everyone in his final days. What kind of message does this send?

...I prefer the old fashioned way...

The old fashioned way was to have states appoint their senators.

I wonder if I filled a urine sample cup up and sent it to wherever this McTraitor is being buried; do you think they would pour it on his grave for me?

That even some part of his final days — or weeks or months — is consumed by this sort of garbage is maddening. And depressing. And made even more so by the fact that this is, in fact, the new normal.

Okay, here’s a joke.

Barak Obama, Hillary Clinton and John McCain walk into
a cemetery...and they never leave.

See, I told you it was funny.

It’s a little sad that in his final days McCain seems intent on pissing away what little legacy he has left.

A person who is in the last stages of terminal cancer to the area of the brain which is responsible for judgment, who refuses to resign his Senate seat, has no business making decisions affecting the entire country, and often, the world, and his refusal to resign is not only a sign that he is unable to make responsible decisions, it is indicative of his mean spirited drive to do everything and anything he can, to help liberals, and hurt conservatives, including, and especially, Donald Trump. THAT is the REAL outrage, but, naturally, the family doesn’t see it that way, and are hurt by remarks made against McCain. They’d have to be deaf and blind not to know that MANY people have nothing but disgust for him, but thanks to some irresponsible little puke in that White House meeting, who just HAD to leak what was, most likely, a thoughtless remark, rather than a cruel one, it has now become more fodder for the “get Trump” machine. As I’ve said before, ANYONE who leaks ANY White House meeting or private conversation, unless specifically told to do so by the President or with his knowledge, should be FIRED.
And LORD help us to not have to be saddled by Cindy McCain, as a replacement for her husband. No doubt, she would greatly magnify his hatred for Donald Trump, and do everything in her power to damage both him, and all conservatives. She knows very well, that he should resign, as he is no longer able to perform his job duties. And yes, I still pray that John McCain will repent and receive salvation before he dies. Jesus took the sin of ALL the world on Himself, and freely offers it to whosoever will receive it, no matter how sinful the heart, but that heart has to be willing to repent and receive.

I can’t believe what a big deal the press is making of this. My understanding is that it was said within a meeting, whereas so many of the horrible statements made about other Republicans are gleefully made in public.

What I would like to know is who leaked this to the press?

John McCain has been a narcissistic, foul-mouthed, nasty, untrustworthy and bitterly petty @sshole for his entire adult life.

I DO NOT thank him for his military service!! Why? I’ll tell you why: because he’s used it as a free lifelong pass to be an insufferable son of a b*tch who thinks his sh*t doesn’t stink.

Hurry up and die, John McCain! The world will be a better place without you.
