There is no hatred more complete and no malevolence more fanatical than that held by the American political class for the American people. The commissar’s rage against the kulaks, the jihadist’s fury against the infidel, the inquisitor’s wrath against the unbeliever, all of this pales in comparison to the genocidal bloodlust Senators and Congressmen have against their own constituents. And even as they gleefully promote the outsourcing of jobs, the importation of cheap labor, and the ruthless extirpation of property, wealth and liberty, these shameless parasites demand their slaves die to export their filthy System all over the world. The most contemptible and dangerous of these vermin is Senator John McCain. In a political career marked by near constant betrayal and hypocrisy, there are only two constants to his bloody career. The first is a passion for war, any war, for any reason, which can only be termed pathological. The second is the desire to replace the people of his own state and the voters of his own party. Like a dying venomous snake, McCain is using his final moments to strike at President Trump and those who supported him. In remarks gleefully repeated by the sociopathic controlled media, McCain simpered: To fear the world we have organized and led for three-quarters of a century, to abandon the ideals we have advanced around the globe, to refuse the obligations of international leadership and our duty to remain ‘the last best hope of earth’ for the sake of some half-baked, spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history. [Read John McCain’s Liberty Medal ceremony speech, Boston Globe, October 17, 2017] One aches to ask Senator McCain directly what “problem” he thinks will be more effectively “solved” by importing the Third World. National security? Health care? Collapsing wages? Rising inequality? Crumbling infrastructure? McCain’s mumblings are practically self-discrediting. But as American journalists exist to serve power and suppress dissent it’s unlikely the Senator has been or will ever be asked to defend such ludicrous claims. “We live in a land made of ideals, not blood and soil,” he explained. “We are the custodians of those ideals at home, and their champion abroad.” These ideals, as is customary when they are invoked, are not defined. Yet given McCain’s tributes to the “immigrant’s dream,” the land which “reinvents itself,” and the current “international order,” his remarks are being hyped as a rebuke of “Trumpism” and celebrated by Leftist journalists who suddenly claim the right to define what is “conservatism” or “Republicanism” [John McCain just delivered a total and complete takedown of Trumpism, by Chris Cillizza, CNN, October 17, 2017] McCain’s ideals would be unrecognizable, not only to the Founding Fathers, but to practically any other American generation in history. Would the Father of Our Country have countenanced endless interventionism? Would either Jefferson or Hamilton have recognized a moral imperative for self-annihilation? Would any Federalist or anti-Federalist celebrate the replacement of the very people who had just won independence from the British Empire? McCain’s denunciation of “nationalism” is also selective. McCain is quite eager to defend the borders of other nations. “We are all Ukrainians,” he declared on one occasion [Senator John McCain: “We Are All Ukrainians, by Jay Newton-Small, Time, February 28, 2014]. “We are all Georgians” he pronounced on another. It is only when it comes to America that McCain’s “patriotism” becomes abstract and imaginary. Indeed, it seems every people on earth has a right to “blood and soil” which must be safeguarded by American arms, except Americans themselves. Even as this is written, Kurds and Iraqis are on the brink of war [The Kurdish War with Iraq, by Thomas Ricks, Foreign Policy, October 17, 2017]. If it erupts, once again, the tribal hatreds and border conflicts of peoples who should be of interest to us only in anthropology textbooks will be cause for the death of American soldiers. The sacrifice of our military is framed as “leadership.” “That leadership has had its costs, but we have become incomparably powerful and wealthy as we did,” McCain gloats. And he is right, in speaking of his peers; he and his fellow parasites are indeed incomparably powerful and wealthy. But such power and wealth does not trickle down to those he ostensibly represents. The wages of working Americans have stagnated for decades, and even skilled workers can barely earn a wage sufficient to support a family. And “power?” The tyranny of George III that our forefathers rose against would be a glorious boon for ordinary Americans of today, as their lives, families, communities, and property are forfeit to the whims of unelected bureaucrats, publicly funded “activists,” or sadistic reporters eager to rouse a mob. McCain’s tribute to America’s “power” and “wealth” is reminiscent of an Ottoman sultan boasting about shared victories to the janissaries he’s kidnapped from Eastern Europe. The democratic system McCain pledges Americans to defend is a form of government in which elected officials blatantly lie to their constituents and then taunt them at the very moment of betrayal. Consider McCain himself. He campaigned on repealing Obamacare, and then gleefully voted to save it [Mr. McCain Goes To Washington, by John Fund, National Review, July 30, 2017] He promised to “complete the danged fence” but instead has done his best to make sure Arizona ceases to be an American state in any meaningful sense. One may disagree with monarchy or some other form of unelected leadership, but it seems vastly preferably to a system where political power is awarded to the most outrageous liar. Such a system should not be tolerated, let alone fought for. Besides, the liberal international order McCain defends is nothing of the kind. The Western world is not free. [The Liberalism That Isn’t, by Costin Alamariu, Daily Caller, September 7, 2017] East Germany in the 1980s was in some ways more free than contemporary Germany is today: it would not have occurred to Erich Honecker to expose his subjects to mass sexual assault at the hands of Muslim invaders and then arrest anyone who protests. [Married couple sentenced for migrant critical Facebook post, by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, July 8, 2016] The Occupation Government in Washington has presided over the Death of the West. The world order McCain defends is, quite explicitly, built on the dispossession of the European-Americans who actually created the American polity. If our civilization or country is to survive in any meaningful sense, that order must be destroyed. And that means replacing the political class, the enemy collaborators, exemplified by the likes of Senator McCain. His warmongering against a nuclear armed Russia is unhinged. His desire to hurt our own nation is so unrelenting and energetic one wonders if he is working under duress or threat of blackmail. I almost hope so. To think he actually believes these ideas is a terrifying possibility. It is not polite to speak ill of the terminally ill. Yet this cruel, murderous and thoroughly despicable character poses a threat not just to the existence of the American nation, but to the very lives of people all over the world. I wish the Senator no harm. I only offer a desperate prayer in self-defense that his retirement will be forthcoming and his media megaphone removed. The political life not just of our country, but of the world, must be rid of this Man of Blood, this sociopathic butcher—who, shuffling to his grave, seems determined to drag us all down with him.
It’s worth noting McCain gave his comments while accepting an award from…Joe Biden. Much like McCain’s “patriotism” consists of deconstructing the Historic American Nation itself, Biden poses as a champion of the “working class” because he rides Amtrak but supports “constant, unrelenting” immigration, outsourcing, anti-white racial preferences and endless, nihilistic wars. McCain and Biden, are, in all essentials, practically identical.
McCain draws a distinction between “nationalism” and “patriotism,” with the former being defined by the concrete realities of history and heritage and the latter formed by mysterious abstractions.

You must have really struck close to home if you got Tater to crawl out of his hole to defend the traitor McStain. Well done!
McCain with his Islamists in Libya one year before Benghazi, priming the pump for Hillary "What does it matter"?
Your point to me was a futile effort to show a good reason that John McCain did something traitorous by collaborating with the enemy while he was a POW at the Hanoi Hilton. You have grossly failed in your attempt to do that. Consequently, changing your axis of attack shows extreme weakness in your ability to carry on an intelligent discussion. If you desire to communicate with me, you must stay on topic. To stay on topic, you need to simply stop and imagine for a moment what it would be like for you to be able to think clearly….to concentrate and remember what you are discussing. Yes, these are some of the things you must learn to handle while you are trying to deal with your Cognitive Dysfunction.
Your attempt to equate Admiral Denton a true POW war hero, to Hanoi John McCain has failed miserably. Denton is a hero and McCain is an evil POS traitor, see the difference?
You posted a video in which McCain lied. I posted a video in which Denton lied. You say Denton is a hero and McCain is an evil POS traitor. Then you ask if I see the difference. Well….No! Both were tortured and both produced a video with a lie. So, I don’t see the difference. You show me the difference.
Denton said that he received food and medical treatment and that he was a loyal US gov employee, which is true. McCain said that he was a war criminal killing Vietnamese people, and that the Ho Chi Minh government was nice, which are lies. You wonder what difference lying for the enemy makes?

On May 2, 1966, as part of a propaganda campaign, the North Vietnamese arranged for Denton to be interviewed for television by a Japanese reporter. His appearance before the TV camera was scripted by the guards for him to say that he received food and medical treatment. That was a scripted lie he was forced to tell. It was during this time before the TV camera that he blinked his eyes in Morse code the word “T-O-R-T-U-R-E” to show that he was appearing under duress and was being tortured. When asked about his views on the actions of the U.S. Government he had not been scripted to answer that question and “he strongly affirmed his government’s position, in defiance of his captors’ instructions. He then prepared himself for the torture session that followed. Both Denton and McCain were tortured before they appeared on camera and tortured afterwards. Denton had an opportunity to make a patriotic statement because he was asked a question which he had not been scripted to answer. John McCain did not have that same opportunity. If asked the same question during the interview that Denton was asked, there is no way of knowing what McCain would have said. Both men were tortured before and after the interviews and both men were given a script of lies to follow. Denton was afforded an impromptu opportunity to go off script when John McCain was not. You don’t know what would have happened had Denton’s scripted statement and answers been given to McCain and McCain’s scripted statement and answers had been given to Denton and neither does anyone else. But you think that you are one uber-smart individual who can listen to different forced interviews and decide that Denton is a hero and McCain is an evil POS traitor. GET FUCKING REAL. Denton spent almost eight years as a prisoner of war, suffering severe mistreatment and becoming the first U.S. military captive to be subjected to four years of solitary confinement. His book offers the true shocking details about his about that ordeal and is called, "When Hell was in Session." Furthermore … It has been reported and testified to that the North Vietnamese torture was so sufficiently brutal and ever prolonged that virtually every American POW so subjected was forced to make a statement of some kind at some time.[15] As one POW wrote of finally being forced to make an anti-American statement: "I had learned what we all learned over there: Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine."[13] Realizing this, the Americans' aim became to absorb as much torture as they could before giving in.[11] After making statements, the POWs would admit to each other what had happened, lest shame or guilt consume them or make them more vulnerable to additional North Vietnamese pressure.[11] Nevertheless, the POWs obsessed over what they had done, and would years after their release still be haunted by the "confessions" or other statements they had made.[17] As another POW later said, "To this day I get angry with myself. But we did the best we could. [We realize], over time, that we all fall short of what we aspire to be. And that is where forgiveness comes in. "[17] Now, asshole….you are one ignorant SOB to think that you can unilaterally decide who among these nearly 600 American POWs that were forced to make an anti-American statement were lying traitors and who are heroes simply based on the aspects of their lives as you see them following their release.

Gatlin>> There was no good reason to post this trash on LF. John McCain did absolutely nothing as a POW that was dishonorable.

I don’t see the difference
Replies to Comment # 19. On July 18, 1965, Denton was shot down in North Vietnam. He was captured by the North Vietnamese that day and he remained a prisoner of war for seven years and seven months, enduring years of solitary confinement and brutal mistreatment. Four of those years were spent in solitary confinement where he would spend day and night in a windowless 3-by-9-foot cell mostly in irons.

So….Hot Shot….There were nearly 600 American POWs released. The North Vietnamese torture was so sufficiently brutal and ever prolonged that virtually every American POW so subjected was forced to make an anti-American statement of some kind at some time. Denton was forced to lie as was McCain also forced to lie….along with virtually every American POW.
