Listening to this release, today. Once you guys got to McCain, I felt you blew past his faults too quickly. In particular, you both seemed to think he was a civil individual, particularly in his political interactions. He was not civil in personal or political interactions. You mentioned Palin, but kept on trucking. McCain's nomination of a human punch-line like Palin paved the way for a Trump-like candidate for the presidency. Need I remind you of "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran?" Ha ha. Fucking hilarious. People have a very bad tendency to white-wash deceased individuals, which I feel is always a mistake, but this fucker deserves nothing but the harshest review. Fairly quick read that chronicles his entirely subjective, non-empathetic political and personal lifestyle: Real McCain by Cliff Schechter. Fuck McCain; glad he's dead.

McCain, like many democrats, never met a war he didn't like. That said, I think his willingness to critique his own side, was an all too rare quality. If only he would have turned that up to 11. Demicans and Republicrats alike, would have followed him. I admire that he went against establishment republicans on the legalization of torture as exemplified by congressional support for waterboarding during Bush the 2nd's term

Wasn’t Pence picked by Manafort? Isn’t this good enough a reason for obstruction?
