Well, I guess graduating second from last in your Academy class qualifies you for a spot in their cemetery...I guess.

Frankly while I don’t like McCain even at the Naval Academy, better there than at Arlington by his Father and Grandfather who were real heroes and Honorable Men.

There is a small naval cemetery out in San Francisco, Golden Gate National Cemetery in San Bruno, this is the where Admiral Chester Nimitz along with his friends Admiral’s Ray Spruance, Richmond Turner, Charles Lockwood and their wives are buried. There were all lifelong friends and cadets at the Academy together and made this special arrangement while they were still living. These guys were all class and heroes compared to McCain.

he 81-year-old says he wants to be buried next to his pal Charles 'Chuck' Larson

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

"In 2002, after switching parties to become a Democrat, Larson ran unsuccessfully for Lieutenant Governor of Maryland, on the ticket with Democrat Kathleen Kennedy Townsend. He and his wife, Sally, resided in Annapolis until his death."

It figures McLame would want to lay beside a fellow Democrat.

They can dump him in the city landfill where he belongs for all I care.

McCain says he wants to go 'back where it began' rather than be buried alongside his father and grandfather ...

The spirits of his father and grandfather are greatly relieved!

McCain, you should be buried in Hanoi, next to the grave of Ho Chi Min and the future gravesite of Hanoi Jane.

Can’t his body just be dumped in a ditch and the road crew come by and drop some dirt on it?
