I am perplexed... the main stream media is so incredibly enamored of Senator McCain that it seems almost impossible to believe that he wasn't able to defeat Senator Obama based purely on the weight of his service during the Vietnam war.
For a guy that was dismissed in 2008 by the mainstream media as a typical republican-boys-club-white-guy trying to force his war hero status down the throat of the American voter. This same 'free American press' is now making me feel like the entire nation - every sentient being on the north American continent - owes a never ending unpayable debt; a debt of unquestionable respect and admiration to Senator McCain. The same guy that they routinely dismissed out of pocket as a hack when he was asking to be the president.
Is the media talking about the same John McCain that they actively ridiculed when he attempted to sell himself as a "maverick" and a straight shooter? Maybe we just have our McCains mixed up.
Now all of the sudden, the media is enamored with the distinguished gentleman from Arizona that they worked so zealously to disrespect back in 2008.
My how times change.
In related news, Hillary Clinton lost the election and two of President Trumps most controversial cabinet nominees are now referred to by the honorific term of "Secretary"
