    The DC establishment just celebrated one of their own, the poster boy for term limits.  Let us not forget and be distracted by the circus.

    I cant help but think of the current resident of the white house and the current state of American politics, it's almost as if we're watching the funeral of America itself. 
    Great observation, Hi!  Sure feels like it.

    love it!  Meghan mccain:  “we gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness, 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 while he suffered and served.”

    Could it be we will see more civility and a little appropriate and humble class work its way back into the fiber of America?  If so, will it last?  Will we say "no more" to looking foolish?  Sure hope so.

    I doubt it. The president spent the day tweeting about conspiracy theories in between his round of golf.

    Yeah and while I try to stay away from stupid Facebook discussion a friend of mine had some people posting outright lies about McCain so I engaged.  Of course I got the regular memes and fake news etc while they called Obama a Muslim and it will come out one day.

    And yes, sometimes I watch clips from The View on youtube.

    lol Baffoon deplorables are outraged about the digs yesterday’s memorial yet Baffoon spent a whole two years ridiculing everyone from a disabled reporter to a war hero and that was fine by his base and most of the GOP dirtbags , you know what screw them all he deserves every single criticism of his presidency!

    Yes, McCain fucked up really bad with Palin.... to an unforgivable extent, IMO, even if you do like war. I mean, his decision to have Palin by his side wasn't just a mistake, as he would have had you believe in later years. It was a very, very carefully thought out decision. He weighed all aspects, and went with the decision that was clearly bad for Americans as far as anyone with his intelligence is concerned, but thought it was still best for his chance of winning at the time (that part is the mistake). He sure didn't put America first as far as that goes... That is why I have raised doubts about his rejection of Trump. I think he showed us that he actually is willing to put his career and personal position before what's best for America, and it was only when he didn't have a future career anymore that he saw fit to actually do what's right (kinda).

    That said, no, Trump is not McCain's fault, that's just silly. Trump is the fault of the voters. They are the ones who let Palin and everything that came after turn them dumb.
    Are you suggestion that not every presidential candidate doesn’t do that?
    They all do. They look at their voters, the voters of their opponent, and select a running mate that can appeal to the voters in the middle. 
    I would doubt any president selects who is best for America over who can be more appealing and get more votes.
    And yes, Palin was a huge mistake. I’ve always been in the camp that believe she was only selected to counter the “first black president” vote with the “first woman VP” vote. If Obama wasn’t black, he wouldn’t have chosen Palin. That’s not unusual to do something like that.

    If that was the main reason McCain selected Palin- because she is a woman- that would be like walking into a shoe store and blinding picking the first pair of shoes you see and going with them.  Oh oops, looks like I'm going to attempt to climb Mt. McKinley is these:
