A memorial service for Sen. John McCain is taking place in Washington Saturday. Former President George W. Bush and former President Barack Obama are giving eulogies at the service at the Washington National Cathedral. Both men defeated McCain in his two campaigns to become president, in 2000 and 2008. President Trump is not attending.

The service begins at 10:00 a.m. ET.

The "maverick" senator was previously honored at a memorial ceremony in his home state of Arizona Thursday, where he was eulogized by friend and luminaries such as former Vice President Joe Biden. Thousands of citizens paid respect as he lay in state at the Arizona Capitol.

Palin was excluded because of her strong support of POTUS. No doubt.

She and Oprah seem to have a lot in common.

There are times when I think Meghan actually looks pretty good.

This wouldn't be one of those times.

Is she pregnant, or has she just put on a whole lot of extra weight during her father’s sickness and death?

Her life was so destroyed that she went from being an obscure governor to wealthy and idolized bu her loyalists. If only I could be so destroyed.

That is an AP photo in your post #185. AP photos aren’t
allowed on FR. You may want to hit abuse and asked the
mods to pull it.

Haven’t watched a second.

Not surprised this has turned into a Trump hate fest according to comments I am reading.

McCain is worse than Captain Ahab. Trump is his white whale:

“To the last, I grapple with thee; From Hell’s heart, I stab at thee; For hate’s sake, I spit my last breath at thee.”

Pathetic. Sad.

Bye.

Fair enough but why would he disinvite her? To save her from the horror of politics? LOL

You asked “Why?” to my comment at #163. I responded in kind. Didn’t understand the Kushner’s photo.

Did Kissinger have some part of a deal gone bad that left POW’s behind after the Viet Nam war?
