As far as him voting for iraqi war. Bush and his cronies lied to get us in this war. If not for 911 how many would never have joined? I know I signed up after the lebanon embassy bombing in 83
RIP.. John McCain!

#107I dont believe in the war stories of guys like this you gotta research their backgrounds and see what they come from. common sense tells me the rich and wealthy, especially old money, dont actually fight in wars they direct, their usually over there doing something else other than dodging bullets. just take a look at today you wont see anyone from wealthy backgrounds engaging in something like that why would they it would be literally absurd. in the old days it was something good to have on your resume nothing but ink fodder for simpletons to eat up, its a good look for a politician running for office. trust me the kerry's and kennedy's of the world are not behind enemy lines dodging shell fire, there's more to it than you think.Comment -

#112McCain was a pilot and was shot down.. Not exactly on the front lines with bullets flying, never the less he was a fighter pilot.. Got captured and became a POW for 5 long years which I'm sure sucked ass... Here is the story...

#121I don't wish anyone to die, but let's face it, the guy fund raised and preached for a decade how he would repeal obamacare.
He was re-elected because of it and made hundreds of thousands because of it.
When he got the chance he voted not to. The guy lied to everyone for years.

#132The more I read up on John McCain's history in war and politics the more I think he really was your typical swampy politician with motives that were more self serving then directed for the people.. He just wanted to make a splash and career out of it.. Make a name for himself and alot of money in the process.. Maverick indeed..
McCain did his war thing but his political thing he was a pure disappointment for sure on so many levels..

#134McCain came from wealth and that typical 'dont rock the boat' southern aristocracy.
Then he married into the Hensley family (Anheuser Busch wholesalers) and that's where the real source of his power came from, but also his 'do nothing to rock the boat' 40 years....after all, had he done anything radical it would have cost the family their beer distributorship....
He played both sides like they tend to do in Washington. McCain held office to stall the spread of liberalism, which is by default conservative. McCain never promoted any truly conservative change, and made a career out of suggesting bipartisan efforts, but really they were to effectively stop any legislation from getting done without having to take a stance...and by extension not offending any consumers of Arizonas beer market, which his wife family controlled 80% of.Comment -

Read more than 3 sources and you'll start convulsing.

#140Fukk you, you miserable twat.
(From a Democrat btw).
He was a war hero and an honorable man Not according to all.
He will be remembered for many the things, lastly, the only one of moral compass and character to stand up to the disaster and traitor that occupies Penn avenue. Per your opinion.
Regardless of party, he was a true American that stood for his values and put country first Not all the time
Meanwhile Trump is thanking the Korean Dictator on Twitter who is a Mass murderer. Obama cozied up with the Castros. What's your point? Families are being reunited in Korea that haven't seen each other in decades.
We've truly achieved complete cognitive dissonance
As someone who has lost her father, my heart breaks into a million pieces for his children, his wife, his mother (for goodness sake!! His mother is still alive!!), his grandchildren, and the rest of his family. I can pay my respects without having to kiss his ass. Perhaps you never learned the difference?Comment
