Mark Levin: John McCain Funeral Coverage ‘Seems a Little Over the Top’
Breitbart ^ | August 31, 2018 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 09/01/2018 5:47:50 AM PDT by Hojczyk

And I say this with the deepest of sincerity – and I don’t want calls on this, by the way: Am I the only person in America who thinks the passing of McCain and the news coverage has gone on a little too long and it’s a little too much?

Really, you can honor somebody, but this is going on day after day after day after day after day. And I don’t say this out of any animus whatsoever, period. Why do some public officials get this kind of treatment – Kennedy, McCain, so forth – and others get no treatment whatsoever. You’ve probably never even heard of them, probably weren’t on TV as much as say McCain or Lindsey Graham and so forth.

Okay, fine. I understand that – that is, the criticism. But you don’t see the same kind of criticism applied to John McCain or the people who planned his goodbye in slighting Sarah Palin, which really is a mean thing to do. She never said a nasty word about John McCain, even when conservatives were raising questions about what he did and so forth. She never did. When I had her on a couple months ago, on Life, Liberty & Levin, wouldn’t say a negative thing about him.

Never did. She was his vice presidential running mate. He picked her. That seems to be a little bit more relevant to me than the flag flying at half-mast through Sunday, and yet you’ll see almost no criticism of this by the same so-called news outlets, the same so-called voices , you know, the same crowd who can’t wait to attack Trump.

Bob Dole, who is a true war hero, and was a true Giant of the Senate, won’t get one-tenth of the coverage when he passes.

McCain dislikes Trump for among other reasons Trump was able to win the presidency. McCain was not.

Way too much by 100,000%. Just dig a shallow grave somewhere out in the desert, chuck him in, cover him up, piss on grave. Done.

After this is all over they’ll just embalm him and put him in a chair in the Senate Chambers so he can continue to vote with the democrats.

“Over the top? Maybe. But just wait until Bill and/or Hillary begin their final descent to the Gates of Hell.”

Or heaven forbid obama......I don’t even want to think about that. Flags will be at half staff for at least a year, etc, etc.Or maybe they will entomb obama in an glass coffin with all the air taken out so that they can bow down to “it” forever. Nothing would surprise me with the dems and libs.

I didn’t realize, until I heard some snippets of praise from speakers at the funeral, that mccain was the most awesome American that ever lived.

Uh, no. It’s actually morbidly disgusting.

It’s the third day and McCain hasn’t risen from the dead. From all the coverage I was almost expecting that to happen.


He made some sort of anti trump movie to be released after his death. So yeah, he did.

The only reason McCain’s passing is getting so much media coverage is his tiff with Trump.

Even Ted Kennedy didn’t get this much coverage.

there is a video on NBC about McCain (i was looking for the premier league game).

It was so over the top and looks like it was professionally prepared. So they are going to milk this
