The ones who voted for John McCain for president. The ones who believe that veterans should be treated with respect and honor. The ones who are aware that John McCain served the United States in combat during the Vietnam war. The ones who are aware that he was captured, held prisoner for 5 years and tortured. The ones whose heads would have exploded had someone in the Obama administration joked about his terminal medical condition.

Where the fuck are you and why are you silent as this American veteran is attacked?
 
Don't worry. These are the same people who remained quiet when the con artist lambasted a Gold Star family and continued to mock them during the campaign.

This is the same guy who is going to have a third world country military parade just to appease his ego. Soldiers like parades, don't they?
 
The same people who manufacture faux outrage about respect for the military when NFL players take a knee to protest social issues.
 
Only honorably-discharged veterans should be eligible for federal elective office.

If you're not a vet, sit down and shut up, coward.
 
They must all be at a Trump rally or running paper drives to raise money to build a wall.
 
I am a veteran but not conservative,Independent with a slightly Left leaning. My father was a POW in World War Two and my two uncles both served in the army for over twenty years.
John McCain has been denigrated and insulted by the ultra Right for decades. Lies like he broke under torture while being interrogated have been passed off as true even when there are no facts to back it up. It does not matter how many times you confront these people with the truth they only attack you because you aren't "A patriotic American"like they say they are.
 
I have the greatest respect for John McCain. Even through I did not agree with all his political ideas I think that he is a true War Hero and a good man.
 
I didn't vote for McCain. I damn near came close to it.

As a veteran, conservative, and as a human being, I sincerely have the utmost respect for men like McCain. When his number is up he will be sorely missed and will leave a vacuum I doubt could ever be filled. Nature abhors a vacuum.

I did too but I thought he was too much of a hawk. Now I think that he was just playing to his base.

Military service is a factor worthy of consideration when electing a president. Cadet Bone Spurs is a disgrace.
 
One might say that McCain is being Swiftboated.

Veterans again, tch.

What do think went wrong w/McCain? Has he always been the way he is now?

I know he's been too much of a hawk on many issues.

Has politics changed him? Did he play the hero card too long and too far in his head?

I now being a war prisoner seriously fucked him up - but did that make him what he became?

Seriously.
 
I think that he is like all politicians prior to Trumpism. They tried to appeal to their base while changing their tune depending on the crowd to attract moderate voters. I think that the Clintons moved much further to the center than they wanted to for that reason. Trump is not trying to appeal to anyone but the far right. Pissing off everyone else adds to his appeal with his base. Lately, I've been thinking that attacking him and his supporters feeds into his scheme. Scheme is probably not the right word since I don't think that he is politically savvy enough to scheme.

McCain might have been president if Hillary had gotten the nomination.

USA hates veterans, hates children (but that's another thread), hates itself. Troops are disposable, valued somewhat when active, then discarded -- except senior officers with corporate and media gigs. Pentagon and VA are rotten throughout. Follow the money.
 
The problem with McCain and his run for President, was that there was never a conservative on the ballot, when the country desperately wanted and needed one to right things. Instead, we had two liberals running, there was no good choice to pick from.

As for veterans, I served in the Air Force, first enlisted and then received my commission through ROTC after leaving the AF to return to school. Followed in my fathers footsteps. He was a WWII Army veteran, serving in the Philippines as a combat soldier, receiving the Bronze Star, SilverStar, and Purple Heart for wounds from a grenade. So much for ‘conservative patriotism is bullshit’.

Lots of people have served, white, black, male, female, democrat, republican. You and your father serving doesn't disprove my point that right wing patriotism is bullshit.

Well, while left wingers are committing treason, somebody has to defend the country against all enemies, foreign and domestic. That only leaves _________?

I also don't see Coach as patriotic. He's consistently supported everything that's cheapening this country and tearing it apart. I don't see Coach as any part of a U.S. patriot. He's a Trumpism poster child.

Your bullshit is undeserving of a response so don't expect another.

I see him as a jingoist,"my country (and president)right or wrong" flag-waver.

When your president is so obviously acting guilty concerning a whole smorgasbord of crimes, including against the country, and you support him on the Internet--even irrelevantly on a porn discussion board--you ain't a patriot no more. You're in the pig slop with Trump.
