Meghan McCain, the senator's daughter, focused on the her father U.S. Senator John McCain's legacy in the military, in public service and in his family.
"We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness," Meghan McCain said. "The real thing. Not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who lived lives of comfort and privilege."
(Donald Trump, a millionaire's son, got five military deferments to avoid service, including one for a bone spur in his foot.)
Later in the ceremony, she defined the America of John McCain as one that is "generous, welcoming and bold."

Go back to Mexico, Montoya. Don't need you here and don't want you here.
At least McCain let the world know that he is ridiculed Trump even in death he defied him. Go Rest in Peace, John McCain.
Trump was not going to attend. To make it look acceptable they didn't invite him. Like they say; if they run you out of town, act like you're leading the parade.
The next good news we will get is the scumbag Oliveria facing the jury as the reply Guilty and give him 3 years jail and disqualified from driving for life. The untouchable scumbag has been touched by the mongoose.
all european republican cockroaches think they are billionaires and millionaires.
Awesome, JUST THE TRUTH, for those who have service believe the same, unless your a racist.
What an embarrassment to this country that they behave like Californians not acknowledging our President, instead they opted to kiss the ball of the two presidents who defeated McCain, all the life of service to end like a kid throwing a tantrum.
I too, would not want the SOB in my funeral, volunteered after graduation from H S, served my time, 2 yrs. 10 mos, a BA degree, MS later. This a--hole got deferments because of wealth an pull, what a piece of Poop!
McCain couldn't stomach Trump cause Trump got to president office and he didn't, so McCain went against Trump and the the American people to force the Obama health care reform. Middle Americans are the ones paying for those nonworking people getting free everything especially women having so many kids just to get free housing, food stamps, phones, money to spend on beer and cigarettes and the list goes on. Check HEB and see these very young assholes without shame buying everything on the shelves but the working people just buy a few things to live for the day. McCain turn in a evil person because he couldn't stomach a person like Trump who told the truth. Too many handouts and lazy Americans. The Mexicans are on the list too. It looks like the word "WORK" Is an dirty word. McCain needs to answer to the lord and family needs to suck it up.
wow. every one of your posts has comments! i read other blogger's jiberish a rants and they have zero commenters.
por que sera?
Trump will soon be gone, Damm can't wait for two more years to end so that these sorry ass republicans can walk the plank like Trump will
#MAGA
To the ignorant poster at 12:32pm.
That hate is poisoning you, not Montoya. You and your kind are what have fucked up our country, plain and simple.
By the way, this used to be Mexico ... what ignorant come back do you have about the theft of this land from Mexico, or Spain, or the Native Americans ... ignoramus! Lol!
The personal attacks against Trump at the funeral were, or should be, embarrassing. Using McCain's funeral as a political forum was a terrible precedent. McCain was a bitter old man and swamp dweller who planned his funeral as a "swamp attack" against our president. McCain was a survivor, not a hero. In recent years he has aligned himself with the Democratic Party and voted against most, if not all, legislation to benefit the military and those who serve or have served.
Now that you have a mix of thieves in power running Brownsville, all educated you can only blame the person. With the scumbag Oliveria, you have a thief, a drug addict, a drunk a pump and a tax evader, so you can't blame one type of person.

You can see the racism of the republicans trying to advance their racism by dishonoring a "WAR HERO", they have absolutely no shame. All posters here that are critical of a war hero are pure and simple draft dodgers, including their master, a reprehensible and a cowardly person that expels feces every time he speaks and attempts to deceive the nation.
And remember cascos is a republican.

"The Mexicans are on the list too." You my stupid crony are the one in need of religion, and are sure to be called to the top of the list when you get to the pearly gates to be sent down to fire and brimstone.
McCain was a bottom feeder ! Oh but now he is worshipped he was a bitter bitter man who planted his bitter seed till the end

De mortuis nihil nisi bonum it is socially inappropriate to speak ill of the dead. The dead may not be able to physically harm you anymore but certainly can continue to do so mentally.
Robert Tibbetts:
To “knowingly foment discord among races is a disgrace to our flag,” he added. “It ... lends legitimacy to the darkest, most hate-filled corners of the American soul. It is the opposite of leadership. It is the opposite of humanity. It is heartless. It is despicable. It is shameful.” “I chose to call out the racists among us and ask people to aspire to higher American ideals,” he said.
To 10:44, you must be a republican Trump worshipper who was probably in kinder when McCain was being tortured in Vietnam and Trump was dodging the draft five times. For over 40 years McCain represented all Americans with honor and respect, while your swamp President Trump has brought hate, racism and division to all Americans in less that two years. Shame on you.
Trump will get a second term whether you like it or not. The democrats get the most flawed candidates and they wonder why they loose.
Even if trump wins it again it doesn't make righteous. For those who would vote for him, "fool me once ok, but twice would make you stupid". Then again if your defending him you are stupid.
He'll be in jail by the end of the year including his whole family of crooks.
Trump was not invited due to the fact that McCain knew exactly how corrupt Trump is. It was really good to see people from both parties honor McCain and stand up for democracy and our country’s ideals. Trump’s base is dwindling and his support is at 35%. Those who still support him will rationalize and scream loudly as he goes down.
"If you defend him you are stupid."
Does that mean you are smart. Does that mean that what you think is what matters only.
What if I say "if you don't defend Trump then you are stupid."
Give it a break. Accept election results and respect other peoples opinions. You lost the election. Stop your whining,complaining and hating.
To the idiot at September 3, 2018 at 10:30 PM
Did he really? So why is there seven investigations on him and his campaign? We'll know soon enough, and when we do he'll go straight to prison just like his dad. PENDEJO
The McCain funeral should prove to all that he was not a Republican. If you want to see the definition of the word vindictive, look at a picture of Jon McCain. When will people understand these people once they get to Washington look at us as if we were the soles of there shoes.
To anonymous at 10:30 PM. You like to insult anononymously. You must be a weak person that certainly would'nt do it in person. It seems like you are like some people that has a lot of balls but only as anonymous.
Trump looks at you: at September 4, 2018 at 10:20 AM like a stupid puppet.
John McCain was AN AMERICAN hero and an American Icon. RIP.
OrangeMan is a egomaniacal thug, a draft-dodger and a TRAITOR.
