As a veteran, it was painful to see her use her father’s funeral as a platform for her (and her father’s) anti Trump message. I have only read the news summaries as I will not give her a second of my time watching the video. Sad.

Don’t really care after the family diss Sarah Palin who was nothing but kind to them.

BTW-Why is John McCain considered a “maverick” of his party? Can anyone name a Democrat as a “maverick” in his party?

they should flush him down the toilet like a goldfish. that’s the best he deserves.

I already couldn’t stand the man. To see liberals and turncoats like idiot GWB slobber over him is just too much.

Isn’t there a McCainiac video due to be release in 5 or 7 days?

An alleged parting shot pre-death, but beyond the grave, at Trump?

#20: "The best thing about John McCain is that we will not be hearing from him again ."

To borrow a line from Lee Marvin:

"The best part of John McCain ran down his mother's leg."

That entire family is self centered and mean spirited. I hope to never see any of them again on TV or elsewhere.

Watch James Coburn at around 1min30sec of this movie clip.
And then George Kennedy a minute later.

Indeed. The only think stopping me from scheduling a trip to take a bodacious Dorkbama on the gravesite is that it is Annapolis, a place of honor and integrity. Even though it did graduate Mr McButtface, its most sleazy grad.

Take some small pleasure in the invited elitists having to endue the whole day at the spectacle instead of enjoying Labor Day Weekend.

Maybe the navy will take him far out to sea and just tell us that they treated the body with dignity.

>>Why didn’t he choose to be buried with his father and grandfather?

Canoe U is a better location for him than Arlington.

= = = = = = = = =

With his USN record and all then getting involved with the KEATING 5 (He and J Glenn ‘spent’ their Military GAF card by being exonerated but up to it go their collective elbows)

AND the way he dumped his Ill Wife, the Admirals probably didn’t want too much to do with the POS.

Politicians have again managed to turn a funeral into a political event.

I virtually despise ALL of them PolCritters, public servants my arse.

Odds on how long it’s going to take before the first student is expelled for doing ... something?

Absolutely nauseating, isn't it? Everybody hated him when he was alive, especially the Dems when he ran against Oblather (except when he was a Republican-hating "maverick"). He didn't accomplish a damn thing in his miserable life except torpedoing the repeal of Obamacare, being the sole survivor of the Keating 5 (thanks to the Dems), and being the courier for the bundle of lies called "the dossier."

Unfortunately, there's even more disgusting pomp coming soon...

He was a great patriot and a noble warrior, was President John F. Kennedy. This McCain guy? Get back to me when we’re sure he’s staying under.
