Noble words.

Rest in peace, Senator McCain. I disliked most of your policies, but respected you as a person and public servant, who sacrificed for his country. May god bless you.

My god, the amount of thoughtless praise of this overall awful person is getting so tiresome and disgusting. The man's entire life has largely been a series of him exploiting his situation and dodging the consequences, whether it's his habitual cheating on his ex-wife that he dumped for a wealthy heiress; appointing Palin, which helped launch the Tea Party and its thoughtless demagoguery; bloodthirsty warmonger who exploited his military history and media friendliness to advance causes that cost the lives of over a million innocent people; and crafting, along with the gleeful assistance of the media, this image of some maverick, while he voted nearly lockstep with the right-wing and treated the health care coverage of millions of Americans with such lack of seriousness that, preceding his vote, he ginned up media attention by telling them to "wait for the show."

I guess all that's perfectly cool because "muh maverick" and "muh war hero." Give me a break.

Yeah I think most of us take more of a whole-person perspective with regards to someone's life. I'm sure you can make anyone sound pretty horrible boiling their life down to a series of half-truths and misdeeds taken out of context.

With regards to the letter, it was quite well said.
