Republican Sen. John McCain’s passing is a sad event for this country and especially for the family and friends of the long-serving Arizona senator, patriot, and Vietnam War hero.

Democrats including former President Barack Obama, former Vice President Joe Biden, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi are falling all over themselves to heap praise on McCain, who died Saturday.

But look how differently these same Democrats talked about McCain not that long ago.

Back in 2008...when he was the sideshow act in Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin’s campaign...the press shared that he was Literally Hitler.

Dont forget Hollywood and the “love” they had for him in 08.

Remember when they attacked him when they thought he didnt type on the computer because he was old and out-of-touch with technology, and not because his injuries made typing impossible?

The ‘Rat 2008 talking point was to tie McCain to Bush — the very same Bush with whom they will happily share the dais at McCain’s going away party.

The Democrats and their accomplices in the media never cared about John McCain. I believe they’re heaping praise right now simply because it can “hurt” Trump. They’re fully aware of the feud between Trump and McCain and, if they can get any traction out of it, will run with the story for as long as possible.

Dems have no set principles. They make them up as needed.

Remember that video where Obama scratched his nose with his middle finger while talking about McCain? I do. Of course, McCain probably chose to believe that Obama meant no disrespect. [/s]

“John McCain’s passing is a sad event for this country.”

Not really.

“long-serving Arizona senator, patriot, and Vietnam War hero...”

True, he was a long-serving Arizona senator, but he was no patriot and real heros turn over in their graves every time someone calls the TRAITOR McCain a hero.

He gave aid & comfort to the enemy in a time of war. The very definition of treason. Just HOW can this TRAITOR be a hero?
