An American hero, a maverick , devoted husband, father and senator. quote: "We have to fight. We have to fight against propaganda and crackpot conspiracy theories. We have to fight isolationism, protectionism, and nativism. We have to defeat those who would worsen our divisions. We have to remind our sons and daughters that we became the most powerful nation on Earth by tearing down walls, not building them."
His pow bracelet rests in my china cabinet to remind me to keep hope, courage, ethics alive and the ability to keep moving forward . From the Divine we came and to the Divine he returns. Rest in peace John McCain, a life well lived. ------------------ Partial truth~the seeds of wisdom~can be found in many places...The seeds of wisdom are contained in all scriptures ever written… especially in art, music, and poetry and, above all, in Nature.

One of the rare senator who dies and who makes headlines in France for his death. Probably a stateman ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/angel.gif) IP: Logged |

September 2, 2018 McCain resurrects the Wellstone memorial disaster Brian C. Joondeph.........Democrats have a short memory and don't learn from their mistakes. In 2002, Minnesota senator Paul Wellstone died in an airplane crash, 11 days before the senator was to stand for re-election. A memorial service was held, and it didn't go quite as planned. Rather than honoring the deceased, it was turned into a political rally. As Time remembers the service: "A backlash against the politically charged service almost certainly helped Norm Coleman beat Walter Mondale for Wellstone's Minnesota Senate seat. And a private poll by Bill Clinton's former pollster, Mark Penn, suggests the service backfired on Democrats nationally as well." Those who don't remember the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them. The McCain memorial will be this generation's Wellstone memorial. Senator McCain is already a controversial figure, disliked by many conservatives and liked by Democrats only because he was a thorn in Trump's side. The memorial service antics won't win him any additional supporters. Turning his memorial, as well as Aretha Franklin's, into a political rally could likely have the same effect on the midterms as the Wellstone memorial did two decades ago. How generous of the Democrats to unintentionally provide two "yuge" campaign rallies for Republicans. http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/09/mccain_resurrects_the_wellstone_memorial_disaster.html IP: Logged |

Watching leftists froth at the mouth with "love" for what they once insisted was a corrupt, cheating warmonger has been positively hilarious. Such short memories Americans have.

I hoped this tribute would be treated respectfully and not crapped on. ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/thumbsdown.gif) If you need to vent, please start a McCain/funeral bitchathon thread. ------------------ Partial truth~the seeds of wisdom~can be found in many places...The seeds of wisdom are contained in all scriptures ever written… especially in art, music, and poetry and, above all, in Nature.

No discouraging words would have been written....if McCain's funeral and accompanying services had proceeded in normal funeral like fashion.That didn't happen. McCain is said to have planned every aspect of his own funeral. So instead, we were treated to a barrage of political anti-Trump commentary from those eulogizing McCain. Most inappropriate...for a funeral. "Reporter Mara Liasson repeated the “resistance” label by the left-wing media in covering McCain’s memorial service. “One writer said the gathering at the cathedral was a giant meeting of the resistance,” Liasson said. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/09/03/leftist-media-define-mccains-memorial-service-biggest-resistance-meeting-yet/ We were treated to the very same kind of anti-Trump political commentary by those eulogizing Franklin. Again, most inappropriate. IP: Logged |

Seriously. I had been impressed that the thread was left alone when I first checked it. quote: Originally posted by shura: But that would be passive aggressive! ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/smirk.gif)
How? By leaving ONE thread alone? RIP McCain. IP: Logged |

left alone?? lol Did I stumble onto the funeral service guest book? ![](http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/looking.gif) My comments concerned Megan's inappropriate behavior and the Left's sudden admiration for her previously maligned father. Take a deep breath. This is a public message board, yes? Contradictory comments should be expected. IP: Logged |
