Senator John McCain is dead.
As the two-party, welfare-warfare state mourns his passing, there is a lot of disingenuous eulogies popping up, referring to him as a great statesman and a man who dedicated his life to public service.
This blue checkmark neoconservative tweeted this:
The world is a more frightening place without John McCain.

That’s funny.
It is doubtful that these countries, ones that were or could’ve been the target of McCain’s wrath, will miss him:
Syria
Iraq
Afghanistan
Libya
Kosovo
Nigeria
Bosnia
North Korea
Iran
Russia
Sudan
Mali
China
Don’t forget Kiev!
If you have nothing nice to say about somebdy, don’t say at all – we’ll make an exception for a select few, such as McCain, Hillary Clinton or Madeleine Albright.
Just another RINO. I hate the fact that all the RINOs ran on getting rid of the ACA and McShame and other RINOs voted no. Just because he did not like what President Trump said about this RINO during the campaign. He lied during his 60 minutes interview and would not give Trump a win, what an ass.
He was jealous that Trump won the White House and he could not. Anytime Hillary Rotten Clinton and her kind give praise to a Republican, you know he was just a political elite RINO hack!
McShame’s record on Veterans:
In 2006, McCain voted against a funding amendment (S. Amdt. 3704) to provide $20 million to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for health care facilities [source: U.S. Senate].
He voted against another 2006 amendment (S. Amdt. 3642) that provided the VA an additional $430 million in funding for outpatient care and treatment for veterans [source: U.S. Senate].
McCain voted against S. Amdt. 3007 in 2006, which would have provided an additional $1.5 billion in funding for veterans’ health care in FY 2007 by closing tax loopholes [source: U.S. Senate].
In 2005, he voted against an amendment to provide an additional $500 million for veterans’ mental health care for each year between 2006 and 2010 (S. Amdt. 2634) [source: U.S. Senate].
McCain voted for the successful passage of H.R. 2528 in 2005, which provided funding for veterans’ benefits and service for FY 2006 [source: U.S. Senate].
In 2005, he voted in favor of providing emergency funding for veterans’ services for FY 2005 (S. Amdt. 1129) [source: U.S. Senate].
He voted in favor of an amendment in 2004 (S. Amdt. 3409) proposing a guarantee of funding increases for veterans’ health care adjusted for inflation and population increases [source: U.S. Senate].
McCain voted no on an amendment S. Amdt. 2745 in 2004, which would have increased funding for veterans’ medical care by $1.8 billion by “eliminating abusive tax loopholes” [source: U.S. Senate].
McCain voted against an increase of $650 million for veterans’ medical care in 2001 (S. Amdt. 1218) [source: U.S. Senate].
Also in 2001, he voted in favor of a yearly increase of $1.718 billion in discretionary funding for veterans’ health care (S. Amdt. 269) [source: U.S. Senate].
NOT VERY GOOD – We need a mandatory retirement age of 70 in the Congress.
I can’t find a way to show any respect for this destructive neo-con who wanted to reshape the world as horribly as the Ottoman Empire did in their part of the world before World War 1.
Above was a map and list of the Unlucky 13. Not included was the destruction to the Bill of Rights that was inspired by this one-man wrecking crew on the Constitution. He never saw a freedom for Americans that wasn’t worthy of his contempt. He was the one who came up with the idea of allowing our Army to fight on American soil. He came up with the stupid idea of creating detention camps in the United States to place United States citizens. He claimed the United States should represent democracy throughout the world, and believed in toppling dictators, yet he was in favor of overthrowing the democratically-elected leader of Ukraine. How stupid is that!
I don’t think he or his acolytes will ever admit this, but he is one of the primary reasons our relations with Russia are so horrible today.
Every freedom-loving American should be cheering that he will soon be worm food. I know I am.
