pilight Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Except McCain wasn't born in the Canal Zone, as the hospital wasn't built there until five years later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost as if some people aren't born in hospitals? That's never been the story, his birth records have always maintained he was born on the naval base. But I'm honestly confused at the point at which you're getting, is this just some low-grade conspiracy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCain was a hero.I disagree with him on almost everything on domestic issues and f-ing everything on foreign policy but man always put his country over his party ideology and self interest.He made this country a better place and was maybe the last great Republican. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he would have made a horrid President, all in all, and his choice of running mate, while I've read the reason for such a choice made, and it makes sense in it's own light, was a disaster in and of itself. Yeah,he would be an awful President and i would hav vehlmently opposed his hypothetical administration,i only pointed out my admiration for him as a person who risked his career over and over to do the right thing for his country.Palin was the beggining of the decline of the GOP.

McCain would have had us in 20 wars across the globe if he had his way (resulting in millions of deaths). And the man was more concerned with his ego than anything else. He doesn't deserve any praise or respect for the disgraceful job he did as Senator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Men with bigger Egos than McCain aren’t common, unfortunately most of Congress has a bigger ego. My least favorite would have to be the Paul’s, Ron and Rand. Nothing but self-serving men with nothing to their names but fake “anti-authority” views that go out the window the second they sniff the asshole of an authoritarian who promises to better their political careers. Especially Rand, he’s bottom of the barrel. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is a complete phony. McCain was one of the last Republicans that had some actual class, unlike you autocratic, enlightened despotism "libertarians" that want us to live like it's Mad Max and embark us on a clown journey back to the dark ages. He's also an American hero, and endured torture in Vietnam, something all of us entitled keyboard warriors couldn't begin to fathom. This has to be one of the shittiest takes I've read. I sometimes wonder if you say these idiotic, downright stupid things just so you don't associate yourself with other liberals (who also respect McCain.) Because you clearly have some kind of "pure" outlook on the world like a Fascist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obama was not open about them, and did an under-the-carpet, backdoor continuance of them, but gave voters the false idea a sense of normalcy and Government following rules they are actually bound by - domestically and internationally - was actually in the cards. 😞 Exactly. Neither were honorable men, and I will not act like either of them deserves my respect (because they don't). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
