McCains memorial remembrances were filled with themes of unity, inclusion, and compromise. They stressed how McCain was someone who could reach across the aisle, find consensus, and put differences aside to bring people together for the greater good.
Its too bad McCains final actions contradicted that message...
Senator McCain had a perfect opportunity to be the maverick of his reputation. He could have been the unifier. He could have done the right thing by allowing even those he had unresolved issues with, differences with, to come and pay their respects and to honor him. He could have shown the country, not just in words but in action, that no matter how great the differences we have with one another, we can move beyond them, beyond the anger, bitterness, pain, even our own pride and ego, to come together to do what is best for America.
John McCain could have done all these noble things. But he didn't.

And to think next week he will be on some film bashing Trump.
I just find all of this appalling, especially Meghan and her long winded bitter speech today.
I don’t think Ted Kennedy’s funeral was this bad or maybe my memory is a little fuzzy?
At the end he gave a lesson on who he really was. A small vindictive angry and malicious person.
Is it finally over? Is he wearing that dark dirt overcoat?
Enough of ‘Send in the RINO Clowns’.
Well, maybe (more) next year!
The Never Trumpers are having a National Holiday today. I just remember after No Name cast the deciding vote against Obamacare Repeal that evil smirk. That, thankfully, is gone.
I’m watching Real Genius on Netflix.
This funeral is going to last all day.
I, for one, am glad the America is rid of John McCain. We are all safer for it.
McCain was bitter and hateful that President Trump succeeded where he had failed. Bitter and hateful is no way for one to meet their Maker. I do hope that he became a better person when he finally faced his death.
Nothing but a low-life liar and backstabber to the end.
Not to invite Palin says everything you need to know.
IMO, McLame got far more years than thousands who served in Nam who were far more deserving than this one.
Here is to all those POW family members who McStain kicked when he shoulda helped them.
This deceitful scumbag didn’t even invite Palin, who resurrected his campaign, so there is no evidence for a deathbed conversion.
Is this really his doing given the fact the form of cancer he had is debilitating to the brain and thought process etc. Was all this planning his wishes, and if not who or whom? I have my thoughts on that as well, but I will keep that to myself.
Are Obama and GWB and all of those McCainiacs stuck there all day? (Bill Clinton lucked out, got Aretha's funeral instead). Are all of those Republican traitors to their voting fodder stuck in DC, on Labor Day weekend? Thank you for the Happy Thought! <^..^>
I was at Kennedys,Ted, and I dont remember it being like this.
The McStain that never wears out.
