I'm not particularly pro or con when it comes to Sen McCain.

Speaking here about what he experienced during the Vietnam War. 

Until each of us experiences getting captured/tortured by people whose friends and relatives are dead because of bombing or strafing, I'll withhold judgment.

His penchant to want to reach across the aisle kept him in the headlines.  He had 'found his niche' and filled it.

Voting 'No' at 2am to decide the repeal of Obamacare shows everyone what kind of a man he was.  ...and candidate.

Speaking to you're valid point about his Vietnam experience while that may have been heroic it doesn't mean everything else in his life was. If anything the reverse is true. The rest of his life is best described as being a back stabbing liar who only thought of his self importance.

Official Thread Jacking, let alone, if Cruz endorsed Trump as he has stated, invited him down to Texas to campaign for him, endorsed Romney in 2012, ignore. We only pick and choose what we like.

That's why basically, my views are much in line with Cruz's versus others just using this to derail a thread.

Carly in 2008? Had she been sacked by HP or whomever it was she was working for. Here we go into fantasy land.

Stop thread-jacking and making this thread about Cruz.

It's about McCain.

And Sarah Palin.

Not Cruz.

No matter how much you hate him.

It's not about Cruz.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

If you accuse me of hate, that is bearing false witness.  The statement is open-ended.  Now, if one is posting pictures of Cruz spewing profanity in threads, I plead not guilty, if you are okay with that in threads unrelated to Cruz, I suppose we have another disagreement.

Seeing how some pick and choose what they like about a candidate and don't really follow what he says though,  then, they should not be lecturing others.

Some people seem to just sow division, that is not in reference to anyone specific. I probably do it myself.

It wasn't, and doing that to others, if it was done, is bearing false witness against others.  How dare we speak out?

Actually, NO one did it.

This thread has not be hijacked.

Just teasing Tom for the accusation.  One picture of Carly Fiorna does not a hijack make.  happy77

I've been great.  Anniversary and birthday rolled into one and lots of celebrating (including with our beautiful baby grandson!)

Thanks for asking!

I was teasing you because no one had hijacked the thread (as you bore false witness in claiming??  :shrug:)

Let's go easy on the accusations, OK?

The one thing that we're almost 100% in agreement on as forum members is that John McCain behaved badly.

Can't we all just get along on this??   :smokin:

It's just as well.  Sarah would be much better off had she never met John McCain.  She had nearly 80% approval as governor, and her personal life was private.

True dat.  She was... pre-McCain VP disaster... mostly off the radar of the rabid left.  They set out to destroy her for daring to run with him against their tin god, Barry.  I shudder to think of a "President McCain" and what that would have meant for America... but... as much as I detested him, he still couldn't have been AS BAD as Bathhouse Barry was for this nation.  Degrees and variations of hell, that.

Rush is talking about this as we speak.... how she never said a thing against McCain and how it probably damaged her career (duh).

Anyone else offended by this spectacle of the funeral going down for McCain? This guy wasn't a President. Aretha Franklin provided a lot more service and joy to this country and that funeral is celeb studded and it is a fraction of the gaudy that the McCains are putting on.

I agree also but it would be hard to turn down an offer to be a Vice President.  Association with McCain hurt her and then he hurt her again by suggesting she not be invited to his funeral.

But I still admire her for taking the high road.  She was actually abused by two big political figures ... McCain and Trump.

Aretha made America a happier place. McLunatic worked to destroy America for personal power.

What won't they air? CBS even interrupted a soap opera yesterday to show the extremely important breaking news of the hearse arriving at the state capitol.  :shrug:

We'll be watching Baseball when it's on (The Team That shall Remain Nameless is in First in the NL-West), or the History Channel (unless it's one of those idiotic Reality shows, then it's Science.  Maybe a movie.)  I have OAN, but it doesn't work half the time.  Maybe NRA?

Seriously.  Who does McCain guy think he was.... a Kennedy?     This type of PT Barnum circus show is reserved for American royalty.  That turkey was only good enough in life to sweep up after the elephants..
