On McCain's deathbed, try for some common decency, DUers, for what it says about us...
Common decency isn't as common as one would hope, even on DU.
Let the man pass in peace, let his family and friends grieve -- and for gods' sake, let his body at least cool.
We can be better than this.

54. Enemy. The word you are looking for is enemy.
When the ideals of someone are antithetical to yours, you can say the word "enemy".

25. Normally I steer clear of thread like this but...
John McCain can pretty much kiss my ass and so can the entire GOP. They have fostered a climate of hate and corruption in the United States and the world for decades now, and I will not waste a single moment pretending to care about his passing or the passing of any of the other degenerates that have supported and built this evil party.
If that makes me an asshole so be it. I'd rather be an authentic asshole who never compromises on my principles or isn't true to my feelings than a phony asshole who pretends to feel something he doesn't. I feel no compassion for him or any other member of his fascist, degenerate party and the sooner they go extinct the better off the entire planet will be.
Good riddance John McCain.

62. Decency for the dead? Here you go.
John McCain behaved well as a POW, by many (more than half, depending) accounts.
John Wayne Gacy was, for 89% of his life, an exemplary person, looking at all the evidence. He only strayed a little.
Pol Pot was educated in the best schools, and became a teacher.
Hitler treated his dog well, by all accounts.

206. Well said.
He was one of the main characters in a sad era of American politics. I never bought his maverick act or his "decent' act. When push came to shove he was an arrogant war monger who never really bucked his party or the status quo. he was anti Trump because he was jealous of him getting elected when he couldn't. Whenever I think of the million or so dead from Iraq I think of him. He is right up there with Henry Kissinger as a war criminal in my mind. He always was allied with the hateful right wing bigots and his whole 2008 campaign was mostly about racism. The fact that he stayed away from racism, himself, doesn't change the fact that he laid down with the dogs. Only in America would experience bombing people and being a POW count for qualifications for the Office of President.
That's enough.
Oh wait..

No, your fellow Dummies just can't be better than that. To wit:

so says a person who claims to be of the party of tolerance.....

It's cute and very delusional to think that the democrat party has not been in the gutter since its inception.
-
Yes that bus at DU is never late. There is no tolerance in their souls. It never existed.

If he only had more melanin and a (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/73/US_Democratic_Party_Logo.svg/86px-US_Democratic_Party_Logo.svg.png) after his name he coulda been a contender. :lol: And of course if he hadn't chosen The Barracuda!! :rotf: So much love they give, so few votes.

Does "Hekate" really know her fellow DUpipo so poorly? After >50K posts? :rotf: The resulting thread was utterly and totally predictable.

Liberals, Progs, & Millennials, in a nutshell.
As a conservative I honestly don't see them as enemies, but those then need never be in power, ever. They have proven their ability to take anything and turn it into a pile of crap.

Too true. America, where the streets 'were paved with gold' has repaved them with human feces in Democratic controlled cities. And the Nation's Capital is filled with rodents, not just "Rats". The latest episode of Survivor could be filmed in Chicago, the episode called "Out run, out gun". And does anyone want to drink water from Michigan? Talk about putting a little lead in your pencil. O-)

I used to feel the same way until obumbles got elected. I was called racist and other names all because I did not agree with his policies. Then Trump came along and people I work with, people that I respected and thought they respected me, looked down upon me cause I agree with Trump.
That was when I changed.
The dems are evil incarnate and need to be eradicated. I no longer agree to disagree. I want the same thing they want for me... for the enemy to be utterly destroyed... and the dems are the enemy. We did not start it... but it is time for us to finish it.

Liberalism is truly a mental disorder.

I crossed that threshold a couple of years ago.
They are, indeed, enemies. These are the people McCarthy warned us about, it has actually happened.
Every political encounter with these people involves an American defending against their push to TAKE something... be it a freedom, or personal property... every damned time.
They don't get a pass from me on civility any longer. As bad as it is right now, they drift further left, and become more violent every single day. By the time I depart this world, they will be openly promoting outright communism.
So I must completely disagree... they are indeed an enemy of America and our republic.

I'm not quite there yet, but I'm getting close to where you and Perky above are.

you are most definitely a more tolerant person than I and deserve a hat-tip for sure.
Me? Not so much, I have a low tolerance for self-inflicted stupidity and arrogance... a combination I find to be insufferable, most especially in a DUmpass who believes his imaginary collective owns our freedoms and property. I'd never go lefty on them and turn violent, but the disdain I have for them is almost all-consuming at times. I see them as nothing but a band of thieves enabled by mob-rules mentality... which is EXACTLY what they are.
grrrrrr !
