John McCain, R.I.P.
The paens to John McCain, on NPR and "Meet The Press," include the story of his then-flailing Presidential campaign, when McCain flew Southwest and carried his own bags!!!!
WOTTA GUY!!!!!!
No disrespect to the late Senator or his family, but: does the press realize how they sound?
No, probably not.

The American media is pretty much full tabloid now.
ReplyDeleteJohn McCain did, at one time, try to help rescue American politics from the corruption of money, the Republican on the Supreme Court he helped put there made sure that effort went nowhere. He voted for more of them.
I don't have much else good to say about him. So I'll say no more.
Chuck Todd noted how often McCain was on MTP, so they had copious clips of him to run.
ReplyDeleteAll I could think about was how much McCain co-opted MTP and the press. He carried his own bags!!!!!
Wow.
So, I say nothing. I won't speak ill of the dead; I won't speak all of the press, however.
