John McCain has spent the last 60 years advocating, cheering for and glorifying the most monstrous and murderous wars on the planet, while demanding many others that never happened. He has enormous amounts of blood on his hands. That he's dying of brain cancer doesn't change thishttps://twitter.com/KenBurns/status/993106042954317825 …
With John McCain evidently fading, and the hagiographies emerging, it's a good time to remember that the taboo against speaking ill of the recently deceased is a nice etiquette rule wholly inapplicable to powerful political figures who are being sanctifiedhttps://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/apr/08/margaret-thatcher-death-etiquette …
wasn’t he also key player in a major financial fraud scheme that should have ended his career over 30 years ago?
....damn...I seriously had no idea about this. Then again, I was born in the eighties soooo. Thank you for this.
John McCain served in the Military. He was a POW. He is something you know nothing about. He is an American HERO. Not a propaganda tool of Putin.
He is war mongering neo con who financed and armed terrorists across the world, voted against progressive healthcare bills and wasted the military resources. Good fucking riddance
One senator does not have that much authority. It takes a majority of the Senate to approve the budget of the military
Being part of that majority and a cheerleader for that majority does nothing to absove him.
John McCain was a PoW in an inhuman US war of aggression in Vietnam where the total tonnage of explosives dropped by the US exceeded the total tonnage of explossives dropped by all sides in the WW2
If McCain had learnt anything from his experience in the Vietnam war he should have used his power to advocate against US military interventions and spare other soldiers from having to go through what he had gone through. And of course save hundreds of thousands of lives.
McCain has hidden many facts regarding his POW Status & profited from an image which he has constantly cultivated throughput his political career. He has quietly sponsored into federal law a set of prohibitions burying info as classified documents.https://www.thenation.com/article/why-has-john-mccain-blocked-info-mias/ …
This is the problem in our country. No empathy no compassion. No respect. There is a time for criticism and one could argue that attacking a man who is literally taking his last breath is cruel and distasteful. History will judge John McCain. Now is not the time.
Respect is earned.
I would say the bigger problem is explaining away or silencing those that speak of the inhumane, deadly, & cruel actions by someone responsible for them for the sake of courtesy. This man & people like him should be called out daily.
Agree. And it IS the time. Reminds me of people who say talking about gun control is not appropriate just after a shooting. IMO it's the exact right time. If I'm killed in a shooting, I want everyone to talk about before my body is cold. It only benefits the NRA to wait.
Apples and Oranges.
Are fruit. What's your point?
Okey dokey. @LoveShallTrump couldn't handle my opinion of McCain, so Elizabeth blocked me. Isn't Twitter great?
Here's the article that caused @LoveShallTrump to break a heel over:https://ghionjournal.com/no-hero-mccain/
