Sarah Palin, Loyal Running Mate, Excluded from John McCain’s Funeral
Breitbart ^ | 29 Aug 2018

Posted on 08/29/2018 3:33:32 PM PDT by mandaladon

Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, who was Sen. John McCain (R-AZ)’s running mate in the 2008 presidential election, has been excluded from his funeral. Breitbart News has independently confirmed an earlier report in People magazine, which reported that Palin was not sent an invitation, and was told through intermediaries to stay away from the ceremony.

McCain fundraiser Carla Eudy confirmed to People that Palin had not been invited — possibly, People speculated, at the behest of the McCain family.

The news comes on the tenth anniversary of the date in 2008 when Palin was announced as McCain’s pick for Vice President.

Palin now joins President Donald Trump on the list of those barred from the funeral.

But unlike Trump, Palin never feuded with McCain and never criticized him.

When news broke on Saturday of McCain’s passing, Palin said: “Today we lost an American original. Sen. John McCain was a maverick and a fighter, never afraid to stand for his beliefs. John never took the easy path in life — and through sacrifice and suffering he inspired others to serve something greater than self.

“John McCain was my friend. I will remember the good times. My family and I send prayers for Cindy and the McCain family.”

McCain and his family, a lack of class combined with nastiness.

that’s why I was probably the only Freeper who posted “it’s a great day in America that this asshole died”..

and some Freepers have the audacity to feel sorry and pray for this POS. I’ll state it again” burn in hell John”.

Sarah Palin I dont think cares..

I to this day truly believe that John McCain ruined Sarah Palin’s life. Had he not picked her, she would have stayed Governor of Alaska, perhaps ran for Senate, Possibly on Trump's administration as Energy Secretary and on to the Presidency someday. I really think Sarah Palin would have been better off never hearing the word John McCain. Everyone says that is the one good thing John McCain did for her and I could not disagree more.

“No “prayers for the family” from me. *spit*”

Me neither. I’m refraining from posthumous razzing. Prayers? Don’t push it.

It takes a rare breed of despicable man to be this vile after he’s dead.

Maybe that was the plan.

Invites to funerals? I’m confused.
That makes two of us.

John McCain, a real s**t, right to the end.

Thank God he is finally dead.

Since, in my opinion, McCain threw the 2008 election to Obunga; if I were Palin, I’d consider the non-invitation a gift from God, providing an alibi for NOT attending the loser’s funeral. Why would she WANT to attend, after the way the McCain family and his campaign treated her? Scum, IMHO.

Yea, no one can walk off the street to attend a funeral of a really prominent person without an invitation.

My dear old grandmother told me not to say anything about the dead, unless it was something good.

John McCain is still dead.

If this is only partially true, it is really nasty on the part of the McCain family.

Sarah Palin was the only reason most of us voted for McCain.

Otherwise we would have NULL voted for President.
