Finally in the ground. God riddance to this corrupt loser. Decency? McCain? He was a classless jerk, at least for the past two decades of service to the left.

The real headline is “US Navy allows John McCain to turn Naval Academy cemetery into a landfill”.

Yes, but for how much longer will we be hearing about McCain and the tacky funeral?

True but at least Aretha was freeze dried most of the time and was only dragged onto our screens for a 2-3 days while kamikaze John’s carcass was a constant presence prop intruding on our daily lives through the media with his progressive chorus ringing in our ears for days on end.This man was not worthy of shining Reagan’s shoes yet apparently he managed on his deathbed to choreograph more time than Reagan’s memorial for his exit. Never has so much tribute been provided for so little accomplishment

“Having Ted Kennedy buried in Arlington is an utter travesty”
That is true. On a positive note though, he was buried.

SNL last night was a repeat of the 2002 Show that John McCain Hosted.

I didn’t recall seeing it back then so I watched some of it.

The John McCain that was on the Show was not the same bitter Old Man he had become. The Tim Russert MTP Sketch was funny.

Well Ted Kennedy I think served a two year hitch back in the 1950’s although I don't think that qualifies for Arlington. He got there only because of JFK and RFK, no other reason and he should not have been buried there.

McCain by normal measures isn't eligible for the Naval Academy either. He had to get a special dispensation from the Secretary of the Navy for this.

Lot of brave me buried at the academy, not sure McCain should there. What is telling and raises questions is why would McCain not want to be buried at Arlington with his Father and Grandfather????????????????

Questions:

>>>How many of the far-left Trump haters who are marching in lockstep with the media and the elite had wonderful praise for McCain when he was running for President?<<<

>>>How many didn’t vote for him because something about him, maybe it’s his desire to cause global war, scared them away? The hypocrisy is astounding and frightening<<<

Answers:

NONE

ALL

Got a couple more hours until McCain gets planted.

At 2 p.m. local time Sunday, there will be a private ceremony
at the U.S. Naval Academy for the McCain family. Senator
Lindsey Graham and General David Petraeus will pay tribute.

Is mccain going to be inside or outside? Jones is in the chapel area with other more important bones.

I thought it fitting for the other post as well. It is an appropriate pic.

As long as we know where his carcass is, some day it can be dug up and thrown in a landfill somewhere. Long term goal for his remains.

Excellent idea - but a landfill might unduly offend the deep state and the mainslime media scum, etc, etc. So, in order to afford the quisling songbird's reechy carcass the dignity and honors to which, in the opinion of the deep state, etc., it be entitled, the only course of action would be the honor and ceremony afforded to the well-known English quisling, Oliver Cromwell, several years after his death.
