Thread winner!
Benedict Arnold had a pretty impressive military career too but that’s not what ended up defining him. Just like McCain.
John McCain, the Traitor, needs to go, and he needs to take the goddamned GOP with him.
This man is the perfect representation of what the GOP is. Traitorous, arrogant, conceited, conniving scum.
John McCain and the GOP are Littlefinger.
Except that Littlefinger is far more likable and trustworthy.
BIH, John.
Yes. He is a petty, malevolent, little prig who has spent his life on his father’s dime.
To make a declaration like he did that he does not want the United States President at his funeral exhibits a very low class individual. He would not know who was there, so to say he does not want him there just shows he is snotty.
Only the dirtbags at Never Trump Natl Review would describe the Traitor as a good man. He is an evil, hateful, scumbag. The sooner he is gone, the better.
And a tsunami of fabricated PR Bullshit.
Its friends and family who show up - OF THEIR OWN ACCORD - is what tells the story of your life.
McCain is trying to plan out the Wellstone Memorial part 2.
Hopefully, NRO will soon follow McCain into oblivion.
He will be remembered much for as he passes onto the next life; which will be petty and bitter. Its sad. No matter what the author says.
I beg to differ; yes, it does in fact define him.
It most certainly does define him!
He’s always been a lap dog for Obama.
He’s against the American People.
He’s all about the money.
He’s accomplished nothing with all his so-called-Service?
Good Riddance to this evil person. WE don’t want to hear anymore from this Clown......ever.
He’s all about trying to hurt the American people......anyway he can.
But THESE DO DEFINE him

The admiral’s son - causing the death of 130 Navy men - not injured himself, he is the FIRST to be spirited off the Forrestal - and his record padlocked

That’s who he was and has been all these years - he has consorted with our enemies, he single-handedly, with his gloating one vote (with his buddy, Schummer clapping and grinning,) kept O’bummer care from being repealed...
He was deeply involved, in the very beginng of the ‘dossier’ ... he’s one of the deepest, darkest Swamp Rats....
Yes, a weak and brainwashed by experts, brain. There are major gaps in McCain’s recall, from the torture which was administered to him by Vietcong (and Russian “advisers” on site in Hanoi). For the torture he endured he should be, and has been acknowledged militarily. One part of the horrific methods used by communists to enable Kompromat, IMO.
The gaps are long enough to have made it possible for Soviet overseers of KGB onward to control this man in subtle and non subtle emotional ways, despite efforts which may (or may not) have been made to de-program him. Net result: returned to the US as damaged (but useful)goods. IMO.
Wonder if it would be possible (or to even have been done by certain awful elements of intel, here and abroad) to get his KGB file. It would be like learning about the actions of Ted Kennedy against Ronald Reagan, in defeating the Soviet Union and breaking up the communist satellite nations.
The thing is a lot about McCain was left out of this article. I know it is common to only speak of the good when speaking about people who are gravely ill. In this case when castigating others for having genuine reservations about someone who has not exactly been squeaky clean it is dishonest to not admit there have been a lot of questions about McCain over the years.
Everything McCain has achieved in politics was only made possible by his father-in-law’s fortune amassed in the liquor distributing business in Arizona. The way his father-in-law became involved in the liquor business is an interesting story, not mentioned in this article. The connections between McCain/his in laws and known mobsters, not only in his early days of politics but throughout his life is not mentioned either. His actual connections to Charles Keating, and the scandal that led to, no mention of that either.
I seriously doubt President Trump was planning to attend McCain’s funeral so the statement that he was not welcome and Obama is was just another day at work for McCain, political temper tantrum. Stabbing his own voters in the eye is another common McCain trait not mentioned in this article.
McCain naming potential funeral attendees and giving them a thumbs up or down is interesting but says a lot about the character of the man, and not in a good way. I noticed in the biography of McCain done for this article there were many names connected to McCain over the years that were not mentioned.
The names of McCain’s father-in-law Jim Hensley and Jim’s brother Eugene are notably absent when people write hero statesman articles about McCain. Could that be because of their known/factual connection to Kemper Marley>Meyer Lanskey? McCain’s connection to Gus Greenbaum, and the Joseph Bonanno family’s practice of donating to McCain’s campaigns is also interesting but not mentioned either.
His father feathered his nest with his Navy career, his father-in-law’s money and connections paved the way for his political career. Not exactly a self made man.
The creation/cultivation of the so-called “maverick” that appeals to the simpler minds of contrarians... just,..because of the hubris.
Several lines of thought on the ‘maverick’ public relations labeling and packaging which might lead one to recognize his utility to the deep state club of the globalist anti-US elite:
His reverting to form as an admiral’s brat (a reason for his being targeted by the VC and Soviets) upon his return to the US-
1.)the divorce of his loving patient wife (not discounting the effect on their marriage the tortures and time would have had to cause it, as wars are wont to do generally). 2.) his remarriage to a major beer distributorship’s daughter and vast holdings with that, fits the profile of the brat.
3.) his low class ranking at USNA and subsequent service record are indications on the “leadership” front (revert to the “maverick” format— cause it is so appealing, despite it never having shown initiative or results), the “courtesy” admission politics of having two major Navy admirals in his geneology, similar to Harvard alums kids “getting in”- despite lower academic abilities.
Finally 4.) the Keating Five Lincoln Federal financial crime was covered up- much in the same way as our current FBI had done with other federal criminal behaviour- waiver of prosecution for “ turning” on the other partners....in exchange for lifetime strings and control levers in his political life. All of these provide the impetus to want to strive and climb the ladders of the “elite” and maintain position— defined largely as Liberal Left (R and D uni-party and the money machine of the mil- industrial complex).
Cultivated by the navel watching self-important environment of inside the Beltway’s biggest drug—— power. Result: arrogance, singlemindedness, need for attention (narcissism)— all the things that drive politicians to various degrees, but in McCain a thick gruel of confusion and easy manipulation based on his past actions, and (IMO) the machinations of foreign and domestic forces who long ago OWNED this person. Not a maverick, but... a Tool.
The Manchurian Democrat. The Comintern has a lot to answer for on this front. And it is at once sad and angering.
Ignore this article.
Jim Geraghty is just another Never Trump A-hole employed by the National Review.
