RIP John McCain

Forums:

Thanks for your service; fuck your politics.

man. you're one crass SOB

Are you going to be sad when Bush dies too?

What about Dick Cheney?

Is he really dead yet?

>>>>What about Dick Cheney?

For some reason, I seriously thought Dick was dead until I saw his appearance on that new Sacha Baron Cohen show. 

the point is he isn't dead

What’s your handle on 6arbage zone Sammy?

What’s your handle on 6arbage zone Sammy?

Never posted there but if I decide to you will be the first to know.

lol

Okay sure.  You just happened to hear about Viva recently and decided to register this month huh?  I can totally understand that.  It’s a pretty happening website.  Glad to know you already know what 6arbage zone is too.  Sounds like you’re up to speed.

Maybe he meant RIP Robin Leach.

hahaha busted

>>>Maybe he meant RIP Robin Leach.

good call I’ve mixed them up before too 

>>>>>>Maybe he meant RIP Robin Leach

 

Yeah.  RIP him; fuck John McCain.

 

 

 Glad to know you already know what 6arbage zone is too

 

 Pretty tough to miss all the chatter about the garbage zone here. Seems to be one of the most popular subjects. You sure seem to love it

Timmy, it looks like you have something in common with President Trump.  devil

Definitely a garbage zoner.

The lack of punctuation and coherent sentence structure is a dead giveaway.

John McCain is a great American patriot-whether you like his politics or not-I have not agreed with him most of the time. However he is one of the only current Republican politicians with the spine and guts to question the amoral Trump regime. He has called out Trump repeatedly for his lack of decency, knowledge and crassness as his colleagues sit idly deaf, dumb and blind as their party gets torn apart from within. John McCain is my favorite Republican in a landslide-not because of his conservatism-but as the only beacon of light shining on Trump's excesses. We will miss him profoundly as a nation.
 

McCain is a mixed bag for sure.  Lets not forget that the reason we even got to this point is that somebody decided that it would be a good idea to put Sarah Palin on a national ticket.  I always felt like one big reason he was critical of Trump was to atone for his part in making President Trump happen.

He did stick it to him on that health care vote though, so there is that.  Kind of funny, not sure if I have posted about this.  The day of the Obamacare vote, I attended an evensong service at Grace Cathedral in SF, where McCain's daughter had gotten married.  The priest was talking about leadership and did a parable about prophets, and then said that John McCain should be our prophet and leader. I thought that was very strange and remarked on that later at dinner.  Then that night, he gave the thumbs down.  I am wondering if the priest knew it was coming.

Which one am I?

You all look the same to me, "Sammy". 

I can promise you I don't look like the most famous one. 

I should hope not.

Let's end this charade. Tell the group who you are.

Let's end this charade. Tell the group who you are.

Did I do something wrong? 

Am I under arrest?

Paranoid much?

You know Timmy- wishing ANYONE ill will or death aint so cool.  You got called on it and you and snark resort to the tired old Garbagezone stuff. Deflection. The two of you play over there all the time.  I don't get why you guys want to sling the pejoratives so quickly.  OOOOH go sleuthing for sox. what fun. 

And Its not like McCain is Pol Pot or Hitler.

Are you Kind?

fly, do you do anything other than constantly wave the shamey finger?

 

you claim to be all peace and love, but really i only see you post in trollish threads...

Fly is spot on.

Not cool to wish death on people.

Simple childhood lesson.

Who did I wish death on Fly?  McCain is dying and this thread is not the cause.  I also won’t be sad whenFly or Creekhead dies.  Que more outrage.

god dammit. 

fuck john mccain, indeed. 

Whoever "Sammy" is, or where s/he came from, hazing and giving new Zoners a rough time is not cool.

Someone posting on .net isn't a big deal any more than any other site, is it?

I get someone not feeling like saying they post there if this is the welcome they get here.

 

>>>Did I do something wrong? 

 

Yes. 

 

>>>Am I under arrest?

 

You should have been.

 

>>>Paranoid much

 

Says the guy posting here with a fake handle.

Timmy didn't wish death on McCain, he posted RIP.

Hey Turtle, thats not really accurate or fair. I thought we were making progress man- you kinda liked my .nets/snark joke.  So I stand by my post, in support of the idea that a battle of websites is silly.

Do you think threads and posts like these encourage more people to sign up and participate? I'm all for jokin and sarcasm, but this thread was neither. So Nyeh and Namaste! smiley

>>>>>Whoever "Sammy" is, or where s/he came from, hazing and giving new Zoners a rough time is not cool.

 

Sammy felt comfortable enough calling me names in their first post before I ever addressed him/her

 

>>>>>>Someone posting on .net isn't a big deal any more than any other site, is it?

 

Socking is definitely against Vivas rules

 

Thanks Judit

 

Says the guy posting here with a fake handle.

Oxymoron

what brought you to viva, sammy? 

Sorry Judit, but I disagree. He saw that McCain is giving up his cancer battle, he is not dead yet, and RIP implies he wishes he was.  My take.

I shall butt out now-    except to say its spelled "queue"     timmy timmeh

Thanks Fly.  Back to your pile of shit with you. 

what brought you to viva, sammy? 

Beautiful women

I'm not too much for getting tag teamed honestly and have to walk my dog.

You fellas hash it out and I'll stop back later when this thread is approaching 200

You don't have to thank me for supplying this afternoons plaything.

Have a nice afternoon

Yes, socking is definitely against Viva rules. So you think Sammy is someone else? I hope not, s/he could be, and usually it's revealed at some point.

>>>>>I shall butt out now-    except to say its spelled "queue"     timmy 

WAIT DONT LEAVE YET BECAUSE YOU’RE WRONG TOO SMART GUY

Hoover said: “Que more outrage” 

the word he is looking for is “cue” not “queue”. o quay? 

It would be a shame if Judit was once again being played by a malicious garbage zoner. 

I thought we had all learned something important from the McDoobie scam thread?

Que?  No comprendo.

Yes, socking is definitely against Viva rules. So you think Sammy is someone else? I hope not, s/he could be, and usually it's revealed at some point

This is pretty intense.

 

 

 

Mark, thank you for your concerns.

Sammy, intense? It's the way it is. By the way, did you read the Rules and Welcome to Viva la Zone? To do so will put you in good stead.

So the grilling is a right of passage Judit? 

I must have missed that. I will reread.

Thanks

R u creekhead, Sammy?

>>>Mark, thank you for your concerns.

 

My pleasure, Judit. No doubt the McDoobie debacle was a deeply embarrassing misstep that I'm sure you would like to forget.

sure reads like creekhead

Anyone new that speaks out against any 'douche krew' members will be accused of being from .net and assumed guilty of such disgrace until a picture is posted with todays date on it.

LET IT BE WRITTEN !

 

Yo Sammy, kick me down a cold Sammie Smith !

No, I wouldn't like to forget it; I might think about it differently if there were another request like that.

And again, thank you for your concerns.

Did McCain croak?

>>>>>>>>>>You got called on it and you and snark resort to the tired old Garbagezone stuff. Deflection. The two of you play over there all the time.

lol

interesting

It could be Sammy Haggar !

He stopped treatment, he'll die soon, Dise.

lol Timmy Hoover loves the 6arbage Zone more than he loves Richard Thompson. He can't get enough.

 

 >>did you read the Rules and Welcome to Viva la Zone

Just remember, Sammy, that they are only applied as needed and used differently depending on the poster.

>>I'm not too much for getting tag teamed honestly

Robert and Linda said what's up?

et tu Bucky?  Queue as in "line up for" expressing new outrage. But I see what you mean. Definitely not the Spanish word for "what". Can we agree?

Why do non-admin people care about the sox?  Sammy's words didn't violate anything yet.

But, Its Friday, I have said too much already. I hope all are well and happy, including Sammy or other people that wanna give viva a try.

Creek's back, dressed in black,
Sammy handle cause balls he lacks
Gettin High, low, tipsy toe,
He broke a needle and he can't sew
Walkin' the dog,
Just walkin' the dog
If you don't know how to do it,
Creek'll show you how to walk the dog

Asked a zoner for some cred,
Garbage zonin from a bunk bed
Got so high he touched the sky,
Drove that moped till the fourth of July
Walkin' the dog,
Just walkin' the dog
If you don't know how to do it,
Creek'll show you how to walk the dog

Fly is a top notch Viva poster. Enjoy your weekend Mr Fly.

>>>>> Sammy's words didn't violate anything yet.

 

He called me a son of a bitch in his first post.  We’re supposed to attack ideas not each other.

>> We’re supposed to attack ideas not each other.

I can't LOL enough.

 

To lol-finity and beyond

Have I attacked you 6?

I cant stop laughing here. Please. Stop.

 

Instead of the Garbage Zone you now refer to it as the  6arbage zone - but you are going to tell me that that is attacking an idea and not me?

 

Is all that lol'ing covering up tears on the inside, 6?

it's ok to b vulnerable in this thread.

that monster, John McCain, is dead now and this would b a good time to start building bridges to healing and hope

>>>>>>Instead of the Garbage Zone you now refer to it as the  6arbage zone

 

I can’t take credit for that one.  That was HALLs baby.  He’s pretty good with the wordplay.

 

He named it that after you did a goodbye cruel zone and posted over at .net how you would never post at Viva again and everyone who posts here is trash.  Remember?

Fog, this guy was banned recently. 

weir here00 

Did you know him? 

>>Is all that lol'ing covering up tears on the inside, 6?

OMG how did you know?

You are using the term no matter who came up with it. You could own that or just be a bitch yourself - no "son of" needed.

>>and everyone who posts here is trash.  Remember?

Clearly you are trash, but maybe I was a little harsh saying everyone. There are a few here who are nice.

6, you’re 6arbage zoning.

 

#bebest

*sigh*

Anything else nasty you’d like to say to me 6?  Let’s be honest, you’re trying to call me out for stuff I’m not doing in this thread.  I have been nasty to people on the zone.  I don’t deny that.  I’m not doing that in this thread.  You’re 6arbage zone buddy Sammy was and now you are.

  >>>OMG how did u know?

 

as a child of the 90's it was instilled in me at a very young age that everybody hurts

image_407.jpeg

 

I started this thread because John McCain is a piece of shit.  You and Creek are trying to turn it into reruns of personal attacks that we’ve all participated in before.  Let’s just agree to not do that.

Let’s be honest, you’re trying to call me out for stuff I’m not doing in this thread.>>

You set the whole tone of the thread with the first post. All Sammy did was respond to your incredibly mean and insensitive first post. You accusing him of being a garbage zone heathen is just as bad as him calling you a crass SOB.

 

 

Now i'd like to propose we take this thread thread in a different direction and start being nice. How about we try saying something nice.

I'll go first.

 

E's rendition of Walkin the Dog is a pure masterpiece.

 

 

Think what you will of McCain's politics, but when he stopped those terrorists lead by Hans Gruber at the Nakatomi Plaza in Los Angeles back in '88 he was a fucking hero and never forget it.

 

>>> reruns of personal attacks that we’ve all participated in before.  Let’s just agree to not do that.. <<<

  " Be the change". Thanks. .

Fo6 if that’s not Kirley or Creek I’ll eat your goatee.

Poor garbage zoners. They don't understand the social standards that favor dominant alpha males above their lesser beta counterparts.

gross...

 

and yeah, congrats on 1 funny post fly. kudos!

>>>Lets not forget that the reason we even got to this point is that somebody decided that it would be a good idea to put Sarah Palin on a national ticket. 

 

Wasn't there a Frontline doc about this recently?  If so, I'm hoping to watch it soon.

 

>>>>Sammy's words didn't violate anything yet.

^I pretty much agree with this statement.  "man. you're one crass SOB" doesn't get much reaction other than a chuckle from the people in my social circles (well, my Mom is rather sensitive to Potty Mouth speech).  Of course, it's easier to tell intent in person than in written form.  I had a similar thought in my head when I read the OP, but it stayed in my head (until now, I suppose); and I found the OP rather amusing (like "DAYUM! That's cold!").  (apologies if I'm hurting anyone's feelings about my reaction).

 

Sammy, in my mind, you're innocent until proven guilty, but that shouldn't matter much to you anyway because I'm sitting in front of a computer screen and really have no power over you.


Everyone enjoy your Friday....and the weekend, of course.

 

PS: I certainly hope that Mr. McCain is resting relatively peacefully and comfortably for the remainder of his time on Earth.  No doubt that he's been in a great deal of pain during his life.

 

>>Poor garbage zoners. They don't understand the social standards that favor dominant alpha males above their lesser beta counterparts.

 

Good grief.  You should try Phantasy Tour.

Slacker, which mini movie is your favorite. Thanks for bringing that to my attention the other day btw.

>>>>>Think what you will of McCain's politics, but when he stopped those terrorists lead by Hans Gruber at the Nakatomi Plaza in Los Angeles back in '88 he was a fucking hero and never forget it.

 

AWESOME!!!

Die Hard.jpg

Now that's a REAL American hero!

Nobody is watching the mini movies, dude, Not even you or Fly can lie about those. 

>>>Good grief.  You should try Phantasy Tour

 

Many steps ahead of you. My handle over there is Conan the Nugbarian. 

Looks like folks are going to make a weekend out of this.

And no, I'm not Creek. In fact I'm happily married and never laid a hand on a woman in my life.

Let me answer the next question before it's asked.

How do you know Creek?

I saw him getting beaten up on the Garbagezone.

I will be limiting my appearances here so if I don't respond please DO assume you have uncovered a covert scheme and pat yourself on the back.

Also I would be very happy if my participation in this thread really rings the bell as far as thread count.

Thanks

 

Simple Sam

Creekhead, you can hide behind any fake username you'd like but the facts remain the same, you beat up a beloved female zoner and galavanting around here as Sammy doesn't change that fact.

>>>>>I saw him getting beaten up on the Garbagezone.

 

Fog used to stick up for him on magazone.net. Then he stopped. 

Something changed. 

The pictures and first hand accounts of the abuse Creek laid on DD were widely seen on the old zone.

We simply cannot allow a person of that wretched caliber to infest the Viva community.

post the links knotseau

Liquid monkey makes a great point, McCain was battling terrorism on the home front long before 9/11.

Slacker, how do you like Tigers chances in NJ this weekend, top 5, will you be watching?

 

 

What a bunch of nut cases in here !

thank you

so weir here was kirley

Did he make the cut? 

He needs to take a break during the playoffs. Focus on Ryder Cup, then get ready for next year. 

Phil is pumped for their pay-per-view match. I wish they would bring back The Skins Game.

We can agree that you were wrong because you don’t “line up for” new outrage. You signal for it to begin. “Cue”. 

Definitely not que

 

i feel like i'm feeding pigeons here

Though his overriding legacy is of someone I don't admire, I do applaud his recent stances against Trump's agenda.

I wish him ease in his inevitable transition.

did mccain vote for HRC? 

I feel his anti Trump stances have been too little too late.  I also wish him a smooth transition.  Thanks to Trump McCains daughter will keep twice as much money as she would have before the recent GOP tax bill was passed.

>>> did mccain vote for HRC?  <<<

We'll never know...

>>> That was HALLs baby.  He’s pretty good with the wordplay.

Thanks man (lol), but I only remember coming up with Fogcassins... someone else came up with Fo6 (StMark?), which led to using 6's as G's, which of course led to 6arbage zone (so unfortunately I can't take credit for those).

Get it together, kids. Creek has always been unable to write a grammatically correct and spelling error free sentence, let alone paragraph. He also overuses and misuses the ellipsis. It would be impossible for Creek to be Sammy, unless he has an editor.

What Timmy really meant to write was “DIP,” which is fair. He deserves to die in peace.

McCain ain't dead till Dewit declares it to be so!

So no one wants to take credit for 6arbagezone. lol

Its like classic “but I didn’t touch him, Mom” behavior.

 

No 6.  Hall coined 6arbage zone but he said that came after someone coined Fo6 and Hall feels that’s who really deserves the credit. 

>. someone else came up with Fo6 <

it's mine. 

fog and 6er were like co-joined twins for a while.

> Creek has always been unable to write a grammatically correct and spelling error free sentence, let alone paragraph.<

 

true. the unhinged comes out really quickly...

 

remember children, "dance, dance, dance"!

 

There you go 6.  Turtle gets credit for 6arbage zone

Did everyone have a good week?

where's your weightlifter buddy ender, BK?

I don’t keep tabs on any of you schmucks.

>>>>>>Did everyone have a good week?

 

Just zoning from my pool with my super hot girlfriend living this awesome life.

Not only awesome, but better than mine because you’ve found peace.

con6oind at the unhip

>>>Did everyone have a good week<<<

I'm just now wrapping up my first week of school, which is always nerve-racking for me. Before it starts I always worry about my own level of motivation and what my students will be like, and I must say that overall I'm feeling pretty good about my motivation (so far) and I'm really happy with my students, which is great and isn't always the case.

So far they seem like a good group who I might actually be able to help, which most definitely helps with my personal motivation, so yes, I did have a good week.

Thanks for asking! 

McCain ain't dead till Dewit declares it to be so!<<

 

The classics endure.

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of that. It was fascinating.

Six, you seem a little bitter today.

Is everything ok at home?

Whole Lotta Love on LOCKN stream.

>>>>>I'm happily married and never laid a hand on a woman in my life.

 

I feel sorry for your poor wife.

"Til the bat lady sings.

The garbage zoners represent the lowest tier of zoning.

Anybody associated with that site should be regarded as a highly contagious Ebola patient and quarantined.

Most of them are already quarantined and pose no threat to you.

It’s the ones that aren’t quarantined, the insidious mofos such as myself, that you need to worry about. I do my best to disinfect before coming over here, but you never know.

Have you thought about building a wall?

Why do you subject yourself to that garbage zone filth, BK?

I can understand the attraction for the 6rew, but I've never understood why you would soil your eyes in such a manner.

Do you want a real answer?

I think BKs years as a special ed teacher kind of explains his affinity for the .net 6ang.

Bunch of loveable knuckle heads over there.  Bless their hearts.

Well, although I’ve seen some prejudice from those that people call racist, I haven’t seen overt racism. The one dude who was got railed on.

Ive always seen Tulsa as funny, not misogynistic. You’d think all the people who come down on him are fucking Southern Baptists who pretend they don’t watch porn. Whatever.

I wouldn’t much interact with Creek or OG wherever they are.

Kirls is pretty chill. He has a bug up his ass about this place, but fuck, it’s mellower than Slack’s obsession with that place.

The socks are the socks.

And quite frankly, not one of them has exhibited the level of shit that your buddy Ateix has. RRG shared deep and personal stuff, and that piece of shit used it as cannon fodder. The stuff he said was heinous, just sickening. Some of you joined in. None of you said shit to him about it. In my book he’s bigger scum than Kirls at his worst.

All that said, whether I like them or not, agree with them or not, whatever, most people both here and there are good people with good hearts. So I post wherever I want. All that other shit is stupid.

Such strong language, Brian K. I didn’t realize I had touched you in your deepest man-space like that.

But I can tell you have a selective memory, so I call bullshit on all of that.

Dude, you’re a dirtbag. You do it for fun. That’s about all you have to offer.

You don’t be think much of me and I don’t think much of you. I don’t care. The fact remains, I have never come out with shit anywhere near as low as you. That is fact.

So, run along and troll some other dude. I’m too young to be your daddy figure.

As I remember it, RRG unloaded a bunch of childhood trauma after getting counter-trolled in my 80's cartoon thread.

Kinda hard to see her as the victim, in context of how that went down.

I’m glad that you’ve found a safe space to unpack all of these feelings, Brian K. 

It has nothing to do with her being a victim, and everything to do with how low a person will go to hurt another person.

Thinking that you’re a dirtbag, Ateix, isn’t a feeling. It’s just my assessment based on how you act, pretty much all the time.

RRG attempted to troll Ateix constantly for years. Can't go crying when the gloves come off.

Live by the sword, etc.

Ateix vs RRG

Ateix vs 6

Sure, it was troll/counter-troll. Again though, there is a line of what’s fair game and what isn’t, at least in my book. Some lines you just don’t cross.

I’m kind of surprised that you’re doubling down on giving that behavior a pass. What’s your line?

What happened? 

Brian I have seen you on the Garbagezone but I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

I am a little confused as to why you feel a need to justify your internet habits to St Mark.

St Mark has made his feelings clear earlier in this post. Do you feel a need to change his mind?

Also just wanted to jump in to help propel this thread to 200 before 8pm but that's another story

>>>>>>So, run along and troll some other dude. I’m too young to be your daddy figure.

 

Isn't that basically the same thing you’re saying Ateix said to RR6?  Seriousleee?

Why is it okay when you do it?

My general thought on the matter is this: if you post it here, it's fair game. 

What a surprise! 

Timmy Hoover has arrived to join the party.

Turtle could not be far behind.

^This guy signed up for this. 

Sam, your missing a smokin' hey pocky way.

Hey Sam, I apologize for accusing you of someone you're not. Hopefully we can still become friends...

The ballad of crying Brian.

Hey Sam, I apologize for accusing you of someone you're not. Hopefully we can still become friends...

Of course JR.

Starting to look like I may need a couple.

Shut up JR, nobody’s crying.

So Mark, there was a while that I wasn’t Zoning. I came back to the middle/end of the Kirls debacle. What I saw was troll/counter-troll. If someone really did go to his employer, all gloves off, right?

Do you give him the same pass? If so, why haven’t you made it public?

What’s your personal line?

And Timmy, please. Let’s move past false equivalencies.

>>>>>And Timmy, please. Let’s move past false equivalencies.

 

Dude.  You called him out for saying RR6 has daddy issues then turn around and crack the same joke about him.  It doesn’t get much more equivalent.

RRG disclosed some seriously fucked up shit that messed with her whole life. He used it to dig in the nails.

He hasn’t disclosed anything, and seems to be 100% stable. That’s just my stupid inner webs assessment. Had he disclosed fucked up shit, I sure all hell would never use it.

My one regret here is making fun of Joshie. When I found out that he was mentally ill, I felt terrible.

>>>>RRG disclosed some seriously fucked up shit that messed with her whole life 

 

She was trolling Ateix in a thread about cartoons when she shared that in an attempt to shame him.  Are you suggesting RR6 needs to be treated different than anyone else here?

 

She says shitty stuff about people all the time.  Are to feel real bad for her.

BK, I never saw Jerry and it hurts when some “real head” tries to rub it in. 

Tim, again, it’s not about RRG. It’s about what we will or will not do to hurt another person.

We can agree to disagree. Stand behind your boy all you want. But don’t then put yourself on a higher moral plateau than garbagezoners.

I just don’t think that anything is or should be fair game.

I’m not the one that claims moral superiority.  That’s 6.  I’m a shithead and own it.  Except for Creek.  Everybody who’s never hit a woman morally is better than him.

It’s okay, Timmy. I still like you. You can have your Ateix douche and I can have my garbagezone douches.

We’ll both leave Creek at the door.

>>>Do you give him the same pass?

 

My position has been 100% consistent from day one; I don't think anyone should be banned, I don't think Admin should get involved in anything, and I'm happy to engage in any pissing match anybody might be interested in having.

I'm also unapologetically bias towards the zoners I like, and I'm all for double standards; especially when they benefit me and the people I like.

That’s fair, Mark. And funny.

McCain gave McConnell the thumbs down.

Therefore he gets my thumbs up.

And here I was thinking that we were going to be friends, Brian K.

Whistling together like Andy Griffith and Ron Howard, and shit. Damn.

>>>That’s fair, Mark. And funny

 

For sure. 

We cool?

That’s a daddy/son duo. Freudian slip?

We’re cool, Mark. Maybe I’ll tell you about the new batch of shoes my father gave me. A few months ago I told him that he wears the wrong size, so now he’s purging before he restocks. I now have way too many shoes that I’ll never wear.

Brian K, next time you post at pedozone definitely gloat about the sweet smackdown you throw down here on Viva. Pretty sweet life, champ.

This lockn' TTB set is straight fire. 

You know about a pedophile website and haven't reported it Ateix?

I don’t have to post about it, Ateix. I have a few adoring trolls over there who will start multiple threads about it. They are the ones with the really sweet lives.

And dude, it’s not a smack down. I don’t like you and think that you’re a dirtbag. So what. Do you care what I think? It’s not like I’m accusing you of some felonious act or making up stories about you. To do that would denote a really sweet life.

McCain is really dead now, so you can all go back to your originally scheduled assholery.

RIP SIR

 

image_410.jpeg

>>>>McCain is a mixed bag for sure. 

This.  The world is not black and white.

He was a major warmonger but having spent years in a tiger cage, had no patience for torture or "enhanced interrogation" as some would call it.

He towed the GOP line 90% of the time but had the balls to call out Trump for his bullshit.   Don't know if it was because Trump insulted him and he took it personally, but you can thank McCain for saving Obama Care.

Dude understood the importance of compromise and civility and was probably one of the last true Goldwater Republicans before the American Taliban hijacked the party.   Ironically, he also introduced the world to Sarah Palin - a gift that keeps on giving.

For all your faults and for all your bravery - I lift a glass for you old crazy American bastard!

Thanks for your service

 

((RIP))

A lot going on in here. ..

 

^Yeah, John McCain brought out the best in all of us, Turtle.

 

Rest In Peace, Mr. McCain.

Dude sure did get a full measure of life.

Hat's off for that.

Let's all strive for the same.

Carry on.

John McCain was bombing a lightbulb factory full of female employees (a civilian target and war crime) when he was shot down in Vietnam.

War sucks and bad things happen during it. At least he served his country and didn't just complain about it.

I didn't serve. 

Enlisting in the armed forces is a brave and honorable thing to do.  It doesn’t make one a good person though.  There’s plenty of horrible people in the military.

 

Like most things and people McCain was a mixed bag.  But mostly mixed with shit.  Voted against MLK day being a national holiday etc.

 

I think the thing I like about him most is this one joke:

”Do you know why Chelsea Clinton is so ugly?  Because Janet Reno is her father”

 

That joke is gold.  So props for that I guess.

He crashed a lot of planes. 

He stayed a POW even though the enemy offered to release him since his Dad was a bigwig. He didn’t want favoritism in that instance. 

His model wife was in a bad car accident while he was a POW and it was decided to keep it hush hush let his captors use it to torture him more. 

She was wheelchair bound when he came back after the war. He fooled around on her openly and eventually divorced her and married the Budweiser heiress. 

He foisted Sarah Palin upon us and gave respectability to her right wing fringe. 

He was the deciding vote in not repealing the ACA.

"That guy doesnt like the lightbulbs!!! Stay away from the lightbulbs!!"

I have MAD respect for him for sticking around to get tortured.  Having said that.....

>>>>you can thank McCain for saving Obama Care

And for undermining it by voting to scrap the individual mandate 

 

A man of many contradictions.  I suppose the thing to do is to learn from the lessons of his failings, including the lesson that in America no man is on a pedestal.  And try to hold up his good qualities as the things we hope our country would more often embody.

While I often had my differences politically (as is common with such a topic), I have nothing but deep admiration and respect for this true American Hero. He loved our great nation, and always served with dignity and great integrity (briefly bites tongue, lol). Your patriotism and honor are things we can all learn from sir, RIP

His reputation in the Navy is opposite to what is being portrayed now.

Truth is certainly not going to stop the lovefest.

Especially when it's a chance to poke "the great satan."

Sad.

 

 

It’s a twisted world when liberals are hailing the guy as a hero, and conservatives are smearing his name and reputation.

Welcome to Trump’s America. Are we great again?

If Hillary was prez (or anybody else for that matter), I doubt i'd show more than a passing interest...  

Hillary was tight with this guy. 

>John McCain was bombing a lightbulb factory full of female employees (a civilian target and war crime) when he was shot down in Vietnam.

 They were making light bulbs for communist military installations.

 

 203??

 Lets go for 400

 

How can I help??

>> How can I help

Enlist, bro. You may yet get the opportunity to murder some Asians like your hero did.

Enlist, bro. You may yet get the opportunity to murder some Asians like your hero did.

 Can I enlist while I'm still waiting for a response on the Al-Qaeda application I filled out?

Did u guys see the Arizona Cardinals best America's team, the Dallas Cowboys in a pre-season game of American football in honor of real American hero, g.i. John McCain?

 

 

 

i did, it was kinda lame...

Creek really wants to be relevant. 

Creek really wants to be relevant.

 

Just feeding my favorite pigeon.

Crafty creek strikes again.

Got me to post in a thread I started.  Super clever.

The White House was shamed into lowering the flag again. Still, Donnie can’t bring himself to say one nice thing about the War Hero. 

So this guys funeral had been going on for like 5 days now and they keep mentioning how he meticulously planned the entire thing.  He sure thought he was pretty special.

Pleasure listening to Obama. Knocks it out of the park every time.

There was the Establishment on display.

Most of them, not really my kind of folks, but at least they have some sense and appreciation for the institutions and traditions of the United States. Unlike the gang of rogues who are currently looting the country.

How long are flags supposed to fly half-mast for? The local armory's flags have been half-mast for days now. 

By the time it's ready to be raised again, there'll be another school shooting or massacre somewhere.

Just leave them all at half permanently.

John McCain’s Funeral Was a Council of War—Just as He Meant It to Be

A dispatch from the National Cathedral.

By Charles P. Pierce

Sep 1, 2018

WASHINGTON — In the magnificent, lordly church-house, there were speeches and prayers. There were songs and hymns. There were bands and pipers and choirs and soloists. John McCain was given a national send-off in a National Cathedral and there was a great gathering of emotion that was almost frightening in its intensity because you knew that it was aimed at a solitary, angry, unbalanced man left back at the White House, at someone who nonetheless is the president* of the United States, with all the powers inherent to his office, a man who has created a situation in which he is an object of dislike and disrespect, because that is all that he's given to the world in return.

It was said almost immediately after the conclusion of the funeral ceremonies on Saturday that, for a few hours anyway, we were back in a familiar country with familiar customs and manners and norms, a country with institutions built to last. That may well be true. I felt it, too. But in back of that is the realization that all of us, including the deceased, had taken those customs, manners, norms, and institutions terribly for granted. We thought they could withstand anything, even a renegade president* in the pocket of a distant authoritarian goon. We let the customs, manners, norms and institutions weaken through neglect and now we are in open conflict with an elected president and, make no mistake about it, John McCain's funeral was a council of war, and it was a council of war because that's what John McCain meant it to be.

He deliberately made known to people that the president* was not welcome at any of the services. He deliberately chose the previous two presidents to deliver the formal eulogies. He deliberately created that scene in the Capitol rotunda at which Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, and Mike Pence, an unholy trio of Trumpist quislings, had to choke down their own cowardice and say how much they loved him and his irascibility. He deliberately created a mirror in which, if they still have an ounce of self-awareness, they could see the rot that has set in on their souls. Even at the end, John McCain knew what he was doing and he was a fearsome opponent. He wanted a pageant of everything this administration* has trashed and put up for sale, and that's what he got. Saturday—a morality play shot through with Shakespearian portent and foreshadowing, a pageant of democracy's vengeance.

...

Make no mistake. Those are not patriotic banalities any more. The current president* has made them dead serious again. They are no longer frothy paeans to the greatness of America. They are compass points on a battlefield. They are no longer heard with half an ear and then forgotten. They are fighting words now. The president* knew it. That's why he spent the morning rage-tweeting and the afternoon playing golf. In dying, and in carefully planning his funeral in the way he did, John McCain has opened a second front.

...

One image will stay with me as this weekend comes to an end and we all walk back into politics as they are now. It was Friday afternoon and various important people were paying their respects in the rotunda, their ranks formed by what they did for a living. Senators with senators. House members with House members. The members of the executive filed in by department. As the members of the Department of Justice paid their respects, Rod Rosenstein, the embattled deputy attorney general who is overseeing Robert Mueller's investigation, walked by the assembled members of the House of Representatives, and he winked at someone among them. Something inexorable began this weekend, and that's what John McCain had in mind all along.

So McCain's funeral was a Bohemian Grove reunion?

I'll be in Phoenix next week- curious to see what the city is like, especially at this time.  From Phoenix I drive east to the Navajo Nation for some product demos.  Looking forward to a new adventure.

McCain trolling Trump from the grave is pretty funny.
