Sorry but never name a building after me. It’s the height of arrogance and it proves you have no idea of the temporary nature of our existence. Leave it to Schmuck to think of this dumb idea. Small minded dolt.

I guarantee 99% of people already don’t know who he (really) was.

If you buy it, that’s a different thing. It’s the name of his company and his brand, so I get it. I wouldn’t do it but I don’t have the ego. It’s still an ego move. I love President Trump and its his ego that has gotten him this far. So I get it.

I agree——my favorite building in the world is the Chrysler Building in NYC-—named for a businessman who built it,but buildings and bridges and highways and airports should NOT be named after politicians-—ever.IMHO.

Geez, I’m already getting sick and tired of all of the McCain accolades being hurled at us. Why can’t he just go quietly?

"The Saint Songbird Wet-Start Senate Building"

If I were a Senator, I would introduce a counter-bill to name the Russell Building after President Trump, with the "TRUMP" marquee to be paid from Schumer's and McCain's income taxes.

"Or that McCain’s dad may have said something in 1949 that was not PC"

Oh holy schneckes are you kidding? "The Admiral" was the saltiest cracker in the USN. If you held a contest as to his most-offensive, anti-PC utterance, they'd have to take down the "Mc" from "McCain".

It would be more fitting to name the FBI,CIA and NSA buildings after McCain.

I think they should rename Gitmo prison in McCain’s honor. He deserves to be there.

Why would you name a Building “Songbird”?

"Very fitting that a democrat introduce this resolution."

Schumer is attempting to strip the Russell name off the Russell Building because Govenor/Senator Russell was a progressive FDR-style Democrat Governor of Georgia who smoked out disgraced Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas early on, as a crook, a schemer, a no-goodnik, and a schnook (just like Schmuck Fumer).

Abe Fortas on behalf of himself and his wife, took payoffs from the 60s equivalent of Bernie Madoff. Fortas resigned from the Supreme Court on May 14, 1969. It would be nearly 25 years before another Jew would sit on the Supreme Court.

So for Schumer, it's personal.

And guess what Chuck, it's personal for Freepers. The GOP has this info now and hopefully they will derail this renaming.
