See Jon, it's not just that you hypocrites "criticized his politics"....you should go back and reread some of your posts made during the run up to the election and you'll get a flavor for what I'm talking about.

McCain could be a flaming asshole at times - and he has been frequently wrong on foreign policy (he's a hawk ALL the time)

But he has faithfully served his country- and has sacrificed more than just about anyone who didn't actually die

And most importantly- like 90% of all the rest of the politicians - he usually has done those things that he thought were in the best interests of the country (right or wrong)

It is obvious that his career is coming to an end - it is time to be gracious

His credit for serving his country was used up when he aided, conspired profited off of and hung out with a guy that defrauded 23,000 people and then gave American tax payers a 3 billion dollar bill.

Best hopes for McCain. I suspect he will give it his best fight.

I've always liked McCain -- even more so when he was bulldozed by the Bush Cabal. I didn't appreciate his brown-nosing of the Falwell bunch in '02 or so but it was obvious he was gearing-up for another run at the WH. Sure -- he was a Hawk-extraordinaire but I suspect a bit of 'show' there. Someone has to play the guy/gal who always wields the Big Stick - Anytime/Anywhere shtick.

I REALLY appreciated McCain/Feingold and his anti-pork/tax break efforts. It's a shame he bought into the Palin Fail but as it turns out, Obama was the best guy to move the country beyond the Bush/Cheney disaster(s), anyway.

McCain is the motivation behind my anti-pork/tax break deficit reduction future. Rip out those special line item appropriations and half of the $1,500 billion/yr in tax expenditures from the Looters and Special Interests, minimize the deficit, reduce debt 'maturity' and codify annual pork ...

'Legalized' Earmarks

House ...
435 members X $5 million/each . . . . . $2.175 billion
Leadership/Committee 'Grease' . . . . . . $1.825 billion

Senate ...
100 members X $20 million/each . . . . $2 billion
Leadership/Committee 'Grease' . . . . . . $4 billion

Really put America first ...

Douche.

Yeah. He was wrong. The S&L Crisis was wrong, but guess what? That bailout worked, too, and Uncle Sam actually broke even with it after all was said and done.

You totally lost me with this. Seems to me that 10% is a more accurate number. Politics is a noble profession? Seriously?

Heard this the other day:
Celebrating Obama's economic recovery is like congratulating Bryce Harper, after dropping back down to a season of high school baseball, for batting .300. He should have batted .450. :lol: :lol:

Yes! Seriously-

I think about 90% of the politicians THINK they are doing what in their own minds is in the best interests of the country-

I agree with about exactly none of them

But when a dude is about to head off to the old dirt nap (and he is) it is time to take into consideration the constructive contributions

There will be plenty of time to make the guy into a diabolical imp 25 years from now (as we all will be)
