    I don't have the right to protest on the clock.

    Also, we're done. I'll not be called a racist blindly without any reasoning.

    I'm not. I have never had any respect for McCain. In fact I voted for Obama when he ran for president. Actually McCain lost 5 planes and not three. If he had any sense he would go off to Arizona and be with his family these last few days of his life. Just because he doesn't like Trump is no reason to sabotage the health care bill.

    I don't think you know me for you to make that statement.

    Your opinion is wrong. 700 thousand jobs being lost monthly at the beginning of Obama's admin, and by the last half year of it, the economy finally shakes of the 1994-2006 GOP/Clinton/Bush blues. You just can't handle the facts.

    Sure, it is. (1) The bill is just messed up. (2) Trump disrespected McCain and all veterans.

    If nothing is done then next year under Obama Care many, many, people are going to lose their insurance, pay high rates, or only be offered one insurer. It doesn't effect me either way. Trump didn't disrespect all veterans. McCain, yes.

    McCain is the respected face of all veterans.

    Fewer will be hurt in keeping ACA than going with TrumpCare.

    There are a lot of us veterans that don't respect McCain or John Kerry for that matter. Bailing out insurance companies and expanding Medicaid is prescription for disaster. Like I said it won't effect me no matter what they do but the middle class and old people are in for a big surprise next year.

    You are in the small minority.

    But that does not matter, because once again the GOP mucks up a simple repeal and replace.

    If the bill passed, far more in the middle and lower classes and among the older people would be for a far greater surprise.

    You are the mind reader, AFM. He says terrible things, but you mind meld and report back to us he really does not mean them.

    "He is not a war hero"

    And as I and others have pointed out that the entire conversation clearly shows that what you say is untrue.

    OK, I ask you again. Why did he say "he is not a war hero"? Give me the context which explains it.

    Respect must be earned.

    Freely given respect is patriotism.

    Coerced 'respect' is fascism.

    Humour me. Give me the brief version. If you're suggesting I should spend an hour wading through the thread rather than you spend a minute typing, then I'd have to conclude you don't want to actually defend your position.

    That's funny - especially so after reading your signature statements.

    As I suspected. But then I guess explaining how Trump thinks McCain is a war hero when he said "He's not a war hero", would be a pretty impressive feat.

    Enjoy your ignorance. The truth is available for those with curiosity and initiative. Really - no effort to review the last 3 pages of this thread. No chance then of learning more about the lib prog smear machine in Sharyl Attkisson's recent book. Sad.
