Here is an excerpt from John McCain’s last letter, personally I couldn’t stand to read the entire thing, so I you care to, here is the link to it from the New York Slimes.
‘Fellow Americans’ — that association has meant more to me than any other. I lived and died a proud American. We are citizens of the world’s greatest republic, a nation of ideals, not blood and soil. We are blessed and are a blessing to humanity when we uphold and advance those ideals at home and in the world. We have helped liberate more people from tyranny and poverty than ever before in history. We have acquired great wealth and power in the process.
We weaken our greatness when we confuse our patriotism with tribal rivalries that have sown resentment and hatred and violence in all the corners of the globe. We weaken it when we hide behind walls, rather than tear them down, when we doubt the power of our ideals, rather than trust them to be the great force for change they have always been.
We are three-hundred-and-twenty-five million opinionated, vociferous individuals. We argue and compete and sometimes even vilify each other in our raucous public debates. But we have always had so much more in common with each other than in disagreement. If only we remember that and give each other the benefit of the presumption that we all love our country we will get through these challenging times. We will come through them stronger than before. We always do.
All I can say about this guy is that he is mighty open about every person in the US is non-threatening and wishes us no ill will was completely ignorant. We have an open society and have for a long time, however, we have ALLOWED many persons to enter or remain in our country without proper vetting and it was on his watch and in his actions that this has progressed.
It has been seen already that many including the past “president” has denigrated our country in plain sight and internally.
McCain was a fool. Probably because he was a war prisoner and had been brain washed. It’s a surprise to me that this character was even allowed to be an US Senator. He was such a patsy that believed everything that he heard, even the FAKE dossier that he gave to the CIA/FBI for further inspection.
On anther note, he was a pawn for the media, when it suited the media, he was loved. When he was running for president against Hussain Obama, he was a loser in the media’s eyes.
That said, thank you for your military service and I salute you. John McCain, good riddens and good-bye.
