In reply to the discussion: Fuck McCain [View all]extvbroadcaster
(343 posts)On the Sunday shows it was all concern about McCain and his illness. Which was fine, but what they did not say was that he has top healthcare from the government. Now this was after the Sunday shows discussing how 20 million or so people will lose their healthcare under the GOP plan. So it is tragic McCain has cancer, but he has healthcare. What about the average person, who gets cancer and has no insurance? They did not talk about that. The unstated view was, hey, McCain is a national treasure but Joe nobody can just take his chances if he gets cancer. Healthcare is a right only if you work for the government or can afford it. If not, tough luck pal! Sucks to be you!
McCain really lost me when Trump insulted his war record. While Trump was jumping into bed with hot blondes, McCain was getting the rope treatment in Hanoi. When Trump insulted him, he should have called Trump the ass clown he is and dedicated the rest of his life to opposing Trump. We know how that worked out.
