McCain, Ted Kennedy die same date, 9 years apart, from same cancer
Fox News ^ | August 25, 2018 | Bradford Betz

John McCain’s death from brain cancer at age 81 came exactly nine years after the death of Ted Kennedy – and both longtime U.S. senators died from the same type of brain cancer.

McCain, R-Ariz., had been battling the illness for just over a year while Kennedy, D-Mass., died at age 77, 13 months after his diagnosis, the Arizona Republic reported.

Both succumbed to glioblastoma, which affects roughly 10,000 Americans a year and is described by doctors as "highly malignant."

Voltaire, at this distance, can still throw a vicious punch. Don’t like the man, do love the writing.

I doubt that the timing of his “death” was a coincidence. For the past few months McCain has likely been a brain dead piece of meat kept alive by artificial respiration and a feeding tube until his handlers picked the most advantage date for his “death”.

You could never say Ted was swimming with the Dolphins.

Maybe its communicative and they shared something as Ted died?

I just wish Ted Kennedy had gotten his cancer 50 years earlier.

Kennedy was a traitor to American and should have died decades before he did.

McCain just got too ambitious and wrecked what could have been a good family legacy. However, he fought, didn’t run and for that we thank him for what he did and endured at the hands of those Kennedy was helping.

Something should be made of this date because of that.

I'll allow the usual week's worth of propaganda before I weigh in on it, though.

McCain was a traitor as well, and if his father and grandfather weren’t admirals, he would’ve faced the firing squad.

About time, McCain was a selfish evil malignant tumor on the US citizens. He should be known for the bill Congress should pass on term limits.
