I don’t like the guy if you must know. I also never met him. he Was a man with a family. Even if his family and whole life was all screwed up I’m sure he still felt something about that. He was still a man.

You just said you litterally know nothing about him. In what way could you possibly humanize someone you know nothing about, by your own admission? You called him “influential” but know nothing about him. He could have been a pedophile for all you know, but you claim to humanize him.
But pointing that out is “bullying” you.
I see.

Someone who molested someone else was influential.

I can understand not speaking ill of the dead but he wasn’t anything special. And like you said the news media did everything they could to make him look negative and now all the sudden he’s the incarnation of God himself

uh I do not think he was an incarnation of god.
I know he has a daughter, shes about my age. I saw a really sad picture of her crying at his funeral. He died of cancer, my dad was just diagnosed with cancer. From that perspective I’m sad for his family.
Im not defending his politics. I have self admitted I do not have enough information to form an opinion on that topic.

I don’t like the guy if you must know.
I never asked. Not once. Nor do i care. Its not relevant.
But now im compelled to ask...
why would you not like someone you “litterally know nothing about”? How does that happen, that you dont like someone you dont know and, in your own words, “litterally know nothing about”?
I also never met him.
And yet you dislike him. You also “literally know nothing about him”.
he Was a man with a family.
Which family? The wealthy woman he married (20 years younger than him) or the wife who was horribly disfigured in a car accident that he left to marry the wealthy heiress? To Which family are referring to?

I can like, or not like how someone acts without meeting them. Take you for example. I’m sure you have formed some opinion on me.

Blisterfeet, you seem to be a very nice person. These boards can be tough when we generalize. I sympathize with you especially regarding your dad.

PC re-writers of history will do their best to erase, or at the very least "debunk" the events on the deck of the Forestall when we "wet started" his fighter jet, the times his father bailed him out for actions that would have gotten any other Navy man drummed out of the military, and the propaganda videos he made for the North Vietnamese during a time of war, or the disgraceful way he treated his first wife after her horrible accident. Those things were fact then, now not so much thanks to those who need to "clean up" history for their own reasons.
Just as I will NEVER have an iota of respect for Hanoi Jane, I will NEVER believe mccain to be anything other than a greedy, self-centered, narcissistic, petty, vindictive traitor to the country he was granted to live in.
Now let the leftist bashing and thumbs down begin.

Fed up.... if the media loves him suddenly, it’s usually a good sign that the person isn’t all that. They love him NOW because he hated Trump. Big hypocrites is what they are.
