RIP John McCain

M_Six · 08-25-2018, 08:31 PM

Politics aside, you had to have respect for that man.

A life of service to his country.

other_evolved · 08-25-2018, 09:01 PM

Sad day in American history.

overcoil · 08-25-2018, 09:09 PM

His is a biography I’d like to read and there aren’t many people of recent history I can say that about.

shortseller · 08-25-2018, 09:09 PM

He did the right thing, a big thumbs down, before exiting to the promise land. “Leave no one behind”, Thank you John!...You will be missed.

RIP a true American hero

Clark_Kent · 08-25-2018, 10:17 PM

An American hero and patriot. RIP John McCain.

Ali Shiralian · 08-25-2018, 10:18 PM

Truly a remarkable life.

RIP John...

Law · 08-25-2018, 10:24 PM

Regardless of whether or not you agree with his political positions, this is a man who served and truly loved his country.

RIP John McCain

Godspeed sir.

They don’t make them like him anymore!

A “Real American” Thank you for your service John McCain!

An irreplaceable American...

This is pretty sad.

Talk trash about him all you want. It won’t take away the fact that John McCain was an authentic American hero. Rip.

irishbimmer · 08-25-2018, 11:54 PM

A man of admirable courage and integral intensity who walked the walk, and fought until the end. He stood up for what he believed regardless of the costs and paid for it many times in the political environment.

He refused to be released sooner than his fellow POWs because his dad was an admiral...the wounds he suffered as a POW through torture prohibited him from even brushing his own hair for the last 50 years.

A man of class, and a true leader. Our inventory of these men is shrinking, and we will miss him. God bless him and his family.

nlkccom · 08-26-2018, 12:36 AM

Our hero. RIP.

tuco44 · 08-26-2018, 12:45 AM

A man who earned the respect of many, both in America and the world. RIP.

RIP.

I thought he always was one of the most sympathetic republicans.
I always liked his non-conformism. That trait has always shown in everything he accomplished or did.

Alpine300zhp · 08-26-2018, 10:50 AM

RIP John McCain. A true public servant and decent human being. America lost a great man and he will be missed.

CrazyT · 08-26-2018, 10:54 AM

Didn't vote for him, didn't like his policy choices, but there really isn't anyone else I respect more in the politics world than Senator McCain. He was truly an american hero. He did what he felt was right for his country and gave it all he's got. More leadership in his little finger than most of our current leaders.

I am saddened by our loss.

Dang3r · 08-27-2018, 05:09 AM

R.I.P. & Godspeed, your critical voice would be missed!

IMO other than his time as a POW I think pundits will realize that McCain failed to show the leadership so many expected of him at crucial times in US history. I have a few instances in mind.

CANGRKE70 · 08-27-2018, 08:47 AM

I found his love of service to country inspiring. True leadership! RIP
