DC Tom Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 What's surprising is that he didn't rise from the dead after 3 days. I figured he had to be entombed first, so...Wednesday, maybe? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Why would the progressive media, shills for the democrat party, ever praise a democrat for trying to work with their mortal enemy? Thats kinda my point. Bipartisan means the Republican gives in completely. Democrats almost never compromise, and if they did they would be chastised, not praised. .

ALF Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Johnny Boy Song by Celtic Woman Lyrics Oh, Johnny boy, the pipes, the pipes are callingFrom glen to glen, and down the mountain side. The summer's gone, and all the roses falling,It's you, it's you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow,It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so! But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying,If I am dead, as dead I well may be,You'll come and find the place where I am lying,And kneel and say an Ave there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me,And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be,For you will bend and tell me that you love me,And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me!

The closest I can think of would be Joe Lieberman, but he wasn't praised as much as he simply wasn't excoriated in the press. Then again, he left the Democrat party in 2006 and became an Independent.

ALF Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Sen. Graham weighs in on Meghan McCain's criticism of Trump: 'She is her father's daughter' Washington (CNN)Two former friends of Sen. John McCain say his daughter Meghan McCain's pointed criticism of President Donald Trump in her speech at the Arizona Republican's memorial service on Saturday reflected the character of her late father. "She is her father's daughter," South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." "If you say something bad about her dad, you will know it, whether you're the janitor or the President of the United States. She is grieving for the father she adored. I think most Americans understand that." Former independent Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, who joined the program with Graham, said he was a "proud uncle" watching McCain's speech at the memorial service. "She was direct ... the way John was," Lieberman said. https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/02/politics/lindsey-graham-joe-lieberman-cnntv/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 USA TODAY COLUMN: Sen. John McCain’s funeral put Washington’s vicious political hypocrisy fully on display. “Though some operatives tried to walk it back the next day, the McCain funeral was, despite his absence, all about our current president. As someone said on Twitter, they came not to praise McCain, but to bury Trump. And yet, despite solemn encomia to civility, honor, and integrity from the likes of Barack Obama and Henry Kissinger, amplified by the press’s Greek chorus, the notion that we used to live in some golden age of civility and bipartisanship exemplified by the career of Sen. McCain is belied by, among other things, the career of John McCain.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
