keepthefaith Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 McCain is a perfect example of why we need term limits. He's also an example of why politicians themselves need to retire at a similar age to those in the private sector. Can't imagine that he had a lot of job satisfaction past 2008. He could have had a fine retirement. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koko78 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I really dislike when these politicians are clearly and permanently incapable of doing their jobs (McCain, Ted Kennedy, Gabby Giffords, etc.), and refuse to resign from Congress. They are doing their constituents a grave disservice by not representing them for months/years on end. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I hope that he will rest peacefully, and I have prayers for his family. He should be honored for his military service, few have suffered as much. However, his time in the senate was disingenuous and not good for the country. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 22 minutes ago, LABillzFan said: Explain, please, why you believe John McCain would have us at war with Iran if he was elected. His advocacy about preemptive strikes against countries that had rogue regimes that may one day develop a nuclear weapon. During the Bush administration, he criticized Bush's policies of following the Clinton's policy of not using force as an option for North Korea. I remember this comment scared the $hit out of me when he was running. “There is only one thing worse than military action, and that is a nuclear armed Iran.” To quote Rand Paul...... “I would say John McCain’s been wrong on just about everything over the last four decades. He advocated for the Iraq War, which I think destabilized the Middle East,” he said. “If you look at the map, there’s probably at least six different countries where John McCain has advocated for us having boots on the ground,” he added. “He would bankrupt the nation. We’re very lucky John McCain’s not in charge, because I think we’d be in perpetual war,” Paul added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our service men and women are not above reproach. A decorated war hero who comes home and becomes a rapist, for instance, deserves no deference or favorable treatment because of their service. John McCain is a traitor to his nation, and his service undoes exactly zero of that. John McCain conspired with our nations enemies to enact false flags and other subterfuge in order to drive us into wars of choice. These wars of choice caused the deaths of thousands of soldiers, real heroes, who deserved John McCain's honor, but instead were given his boot heel. The world needs fewer John McCains, and thankfully, soon that will be the case. Edited August 24, 2018 by TakeYouToTasker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
