Trump please drone

That is disgusting.

Wasn't this the thing that got Fidel?

Anyway, best wishes + hope he recovers.

Obama please drone too

-------------

Senator McCain is in my prayers.

What disgusting thing did Santander say this time.

Hoping for the best, but prepared for the worst.

Does it even matter? He’s quite predictable, so you can make a guess and probably get close.

I hope he recovers.

(sugar-coating) McCain deserves it because he was a Never-Trumper

It sure is great that our moderators idly mop up the trail of shit that Santander leaves everywhere instead of just banning him.

Excellent Senator and a huge war hero. FF, wish him the best.

I forgot we aren't allowed to criticize Saint John the Murderer because muh healthcare vote made him a Resistance Hero.

No, I'm afraid that's not true. The healthcare vote didn't make him a Resistance Hero, his bravery, long service, commitment, and honesty made him an American Hero. He's a major FF, for me at least.

I don't want him to die.

Mccain in stable condition after Surgery

Brave John McCain who got all the credit for voting against skinny repeal before voting for skinny repeal (it was in the tax bill).

Get well soon, Mr. McCain. Although I differ with you on issues, you' ve been a patriot and good man.

McCain missed the Tax Reform vote due to illness.

No, it's just that criticising him in this situation would be pretty sh**tty form.

I’m going to predict but the color of your avatar that you hated him in 2008.

Wishing Senator McCain and his family the best

You know, I didn't. I've always respected and admired him, despite my disagreements with him.

I love and admire John McCain as a person, though I wouldn't have voted for him in '08, and we frequently disagree on policy. Hope he gets well soon.

He’s a warmongering scumbag who would’ve bombed more Vietnamese villagers if he was a better pilot. I don’t wish death on him, though.

Wishing him a speedy recovery.

He really should consider resigning, though. He's been out of the Senate for half a year and denies the people of Arizona half of their Senate representation by doing so.

I don't wish McCain to die nor for him to suffer a prolonged ilness, but I'm not going to jump on the bandwagon of his keyboard canonization here.

Sad to hear. :/

He is probably trying to hold out in hopes of preventing a 2018 special election.

It looks like the deadline is probably May 30th.

John McCain is the first major politician I met in person. I also think he would've been a fine President even though I voted for Obama in 2008.

I wish him well.

Good to see that at least you of all red avatars have some self-respect Doctor! :P

That was the conference report. He had already voted for the bill, and I'm sure they would have had him vote had they needed it, but they knew it would have the other 50 Republicans voting for it just like they did for the original bill.

I hope he gets better, he really represents the best of our government and the best of our country.

My bad, duly noted.

ITT: the usual suspects further demonstrate that they will never pass up an opportunity, not even grave illness or even death of a man with a family and friends, to prove to an internet board full of strangers that they are morally superior to someone.

they think they're better than everyone else because they don't support mainstream political positions and it's sickening.

Disgraceful.

Yes, his insatiable pro-war stances are disgraceful.

Can we please remove BREAKING as it's not breaking anymore.  I keep seeing the partial title and get nervous he died.

I modified the title.

I prefer the term "blood lust." I think he's trying to compensate for all the killing he missed while in the Hanoi Hilton.

so you support the Viet Cong barbarians?

lol

Good question. The answer is no, of course, because the North Vietnamese were equal aggressors in the conflict. John McCain dousing them with napalm did little to reverse the damage already done to Vietnam.
