Oh well. Congratulations on dying a Senator. UTTERLY MEANINGLESS as that is. Reality is he will be completely forgotten in a few years weeks.

I mean "days."

I did not like his politics but as a combat vet I have to respect the man.

Senator, you have my salute, respect, and gratefulness.

Our nation is better off that you were here.

Carry on Sir.

Down post I saw where someone posted that we would forget this man quickly.

No we won’t. As a vet I always remember the bravest among us.

You are not living in the real world...McCain was an evil man from head to toe. However...this is a free country and you can do as you freely choose...but, so can I.

I am very sorry for John McCain’s suffering and for his family’s pain in going through this loss.

“Portcall24 thank you for your service. You know we thank them, too.”

Thank you. I continue to speak with local groups in Central Virginia about what they endured and how they overcame. So many heroes and so few voices.

Multiply that by 100 or maybe 1,000 for the families of prisoners of war and MIAs who were left behind in Vietnam.

Senator McCain needs to be remembered for how he treated those families.

Mr. McCain is a child of God just as we all are. God put him here for a purpose. Whether he served that purpose we don’t know.

Either way, God is either rejoicing that one of His children will be home or weeping that he is not.

It is not our business at this point.

What is the difference between OccupyWallStreet folks crapping on police cars and FReepers crapping on a dead man?

The OccupyWallStreet thugs did nothing immoral to God. FReepers are.

just trying to be nice.... WHY?

From what I see he turned and became part of the ruling elite. Anti-middle class.

My son is active duty with the 1st SF Group stationed in Washington State. He loves what he does, has great confidence, and with no regrets.

I hate these threads where people slurp and burp people who stabbed us in the back at every opportunity. God may judge his soul, but we don’t have to lie about what a great guy he was. It is a day of freedom in Arizona, more like the death of Brezhnev in the USSR.

I still remember all the freepers saying how swell Molly Ivins was when she finally kicked off. It was sickening. The dead earn their eulogies, but also their contempt.

Because the man has passed. There is nothing to be done now. He is a child of God. At least have love for God as one of His children is now going home or not.

This ain’t our show. It is God’s show. Is it so hard to show respect for someone God made?

Do you want to be treated this way? Or does everyone love you and you have never done anything to another to hurt them?

The man has passed. Show respect even if you don’t have any.
