The streets, highways and freeways in Arizona were almost bare of citizens ling them as the McCain funeral caravan passed by. The school authorities in Phoenix had to order the students of high schools to be released, so they could show some gathering for McCain.

Meanwhile, Chris Kyle

All seems a little bit over the top to me. She was undoubtedly an important pop-culture figure, but I think this gushing over her by all the good leftists makes me think they just want to demonstrate how down-for-the-struggle they are.

My only concern on McLame’s funeral is making sure he doesn’t rise from his grave . .

Just bury the traitor already. Although it is not for us to judge,(that we must of course leave to the Lord Almighty), the fact that McCain voted no on repealing Obamacare would require his repentance. Not for political reasons would he need to repent; rather because Obmacare fully funded the slaughter of the unborn.

IMHO, the late Sen McCain ran as a Republican in Arizon for two reasons: He rightly assumed for decades the majority of folks in Arizona were idiots (I don’t want to insult sheep) who voted for whoever the ‘R’ party told them to vote for, and the ‘R’ party of Arizon didn’t care they had a Democrat in their ranks as long as he did what they wanted behind the scenes to further their Agenda. ‘R,’ being the RINO-Globalist branch of the Democrat Party. In the future, I believe we’ll see books of exactly how traitorous (sp?) the late Sen McCain really was during Vietnam and in Congress.

Because Aretha wasn’t a pompous, arrogant, traitorous piece of s**t.

Word.

Yes.....the life of John McCain has many dark chapters that will soon surface. Like I stated earlier on this posting...McCain was a severely flawed human being on many fronts!!!

P.S. I enjoy her music. Despite her politics she left music that can inspire people with the gift the Lord God granted her. For weal an woe, he did nothing to further the protection or growth of America as he only did what furthered his personal gain.

Because she earned and deserved her R-E-S-P-E-C-T by sharing her GOD-given talent with us while she was here. Regardless of her political views she was one of the greatest entertainers of all time. She will be missed by many and her songs will continue to entertain future generations to come.

John McCain not so much.

I read that McC left us with a film alleging Russia-Trump collusion.

“Have you noticed it is the Democrats who are the loudest, proclaiming him as the Republican they loved best?”

John was bipartisan...he reached across the aisle to republicans occasionally.

Aretha actually created something of value. McCain lived off the value created by others.

Be nice Bonemaker, you should see Detwaa now, in 10 yrs IMHO they are gonna kick Chicago’s @$$ in terms of a cool city to visit, you cannot believe the construction downtown. Smart money was their over 5 yrs ago with REIT’s building things up in neighborhoods.
