But in the end, it ain't gonna make much difference if we pick up a few seats in the Senate.

All the over-the-top speeches and tributes to America greatest war hero and politician ever were meant as a slap in the face to Trump.

And that news is and would be a big deal if someone where doing a counter investigation but no one is so all these fucks are going to skate.

We've known Bruce Ohr and his wife were central operator from jump street and yet the guy supposedly doing a counter investigation hasn't even interviewed him.

After being McCains running mate, and taking the arrows in the back from his crew, Sarah Palin *still* campaigned for him in Arizona when he ran for reelection.

Which is another bullet point in my theory that the funeral snub is because she refused to climb on the Cindy Train. If true, good for Sarah sticking to her guns.

As well he should. That doddering fool can't even be said to have lost control of the Department of Justice since he never exerted control in the first place. I think he is probably a "good" man and just can not bring himself to acknowledge that the DoJ has been involved in some spectular abuses that go way past "gaming the system" into criminality.

His silence on issues that have nothing to do with Russia!!!Russia!!!Russia!!!™ is deafening. If he ever had executive skills, they attrophied after 20 years in the U.S. Senate where the biggest decision he had to make was to vote Yes or No on legislation somebody else wrote. He is a small man for a big job.

116 "It was a CIA gun running operation and McCains beak was dipped firmly in that shit"Posted by: Kreplach
that sounds right, iirc there was also talk of them trying to buy back the shoulder fired missiles that could take down airliners. Those came out of the armories after Soros/Hillary/Cameron recklessly expanded their little action in Benghazi into overthrowing Ghadaffi and the regime (which as promised/anticipated, threw open the doors for floods of mostly Muslim African/Middle Eastern terrorist aged men to flood Europe)

Our involvement with all the factions and sub-factions is so complicated, even those deep in the Pentagon don't seem to know who is who. We tend to like "The Kurds", but they may be just an alliance of convenience (for them) ... some thought that Turkish coup would go our way, but it went Erdogan's way and he seems mostly intent on building their caliphate ... it's above my pay grade ...

So there was some concept of build little al Aqaeda (ISIS) to fight Syria/Russia ... idk, but some neo-con (?) probably in the Pentagon was war gaming something, and McCain was their man on the Hill (imo). Not that it is an excuse, but I can't imagine McCain just decided to go terrorist. He was just a globalist/DeepState tool. imo

They made a man king for their cause and used his corpse as a platform to try and reinvigorate the anathema they've thrust upon our nation, that HE thrust upon our nation.

176 167 America was great until the globalists, socialists and liberals tried to transform it into something it wasn't, into an abomination of its true self.

Great point! America is not soccer where a great team maybe puts up 3 or 4 points on an ok team. America is football where you keep playing until the whistle blows. So in the Obama years you had soccer players running around flopping at every little touch and other playing hard on every play.

At the end of it when everyone looked around about half the player were no better off (or even worse) and about half were way ahead. Notice every socialist idea is to equalize the players, not the playing field.

We got my wife's aunt and uncle back from the crematorium in the boxes that they put them in. I went online and found a place that sells plastic bags that when put into water dissolve away. We put the into those bags and tossed them into the lake nearby that they had lived by all their lives.
We used the bags because we didn't want the ashes blowing back on us if their was a wind gust.

227 The talk about Nixon and Bush 41 made me think of Goldwater in 1964. All the familiar elements were there:

* The GOPe (then called "the Rockefeller wing") DID NOT WANT him.

* He was vilified as a racist lunatic who was going to start WWIII.

* The infamous "daisy" ad ran only once as an actual commercial, but was then shown over and over again and discussed endlessly on the "news" programs. So there was the MSM giving in-kind contributions to the Democrat.

He lost the election, and then "the 60s" began in earnest, culminating in the leftist counterculture taking over American society.

Somebody ought to write an alternative history in which Goldwater won the 1964 election.

259 Just two days after it was announced that Alec Baldwin would be playing Batman's father, Thomas Wayne, in Joaquin Phoenix's "Joker" movie, he revealed that he's exited the project.

Variety confirmed the news on Wednesday after the actor told USA Today that he'd be dropping out.

"I'm no longer doing that movie," he told the outlet. "I'm sure there are 25 guys who can play that part."

========

This is so hateful it makes me ragestroke. Why does this insensitive bigot assume that a "guy" must play Bruce Wayne's father? Why can't Bruce have two mommies? Maybe they were killed by a misogynist homophobe. That's my suggested retcon.

Posted by: JAS at September 02, 2018 08:33 AM (3HNOQ)

Viking funerals had a similar thing, but it's not the widow. I'd be cool with a traditional Viking funeral, only without the part where all the attendees shtup some poor drunk chick for days and then she gets stabbed to death and then burned on the ship because serious you guys, that's pretty awful. I don't know if it's a popular attitude to take around here, but gonna come out and say that I'm just not comfortable with that kind of thing going on at my Viking funeral. I've actually got the puffy paint and glitter out right now and I'm working on a posterboard sign to bring to the next womens' march:

I NEED FEMINISM BECAUSE I DON'T WANT ALL MY FRIENDS AT MY VIKING FUNERAL TO BONE A SERVING WENCH CLEAR OUT OF HER COCONUT AND THEN STAB HER IN THE HEART AND BURN HER ON MY WAR SHIP FUNERAL PYRE SO SHE CAN SERVE ME IN VALHALLA

337 So here's my experience today. Some lady was waiting on me in the supermarket and she had cross earrings, so i said would you like a Christian devotional? It was "The Upper Room" which I often post from. Her response "You people don't believe in the 5 cardinal doctrines" so i said "O.K.Have good day and left"I had never heard that specific phrase before "5 cardinal doctrines". I found out what they are which I do not have a problem with. All I can think of is that"You people" means that she thought I was a Jehovah's Witness and was handing out a "The Watchtower"
Guess i won't try to hand out anything to anyone wearing a cross or cross jewelry again. :^)

I read it was 7 out of the top 10.

And it did not use to be that way. In most other countries in the world, the capital city is the biggest and richest. But in America, wealth took many different forms.

After he was rescued from the water by local Vietnamese villagers, he was not tortured as badly by the NVA as other captured U.S. pilot were, because of his injuries (and also because of his high-status value as Admiral McCain's son).

Also, although McCain has long claimed that his plane was downed by a SAM, it was actually taken down by anti-aircraft artillery, which is documented in Navy records and also attested to by the airmen in the planes flying next to McCain's on the mission.

348 Perhaps the Democrats can arrange for a Republican Congressperson to die every couple of weeks leading up to the election so they can run a funeralpallozza from now until the midterms and make it about hating Trump.

I feel sorry for people who loved McCain. I hope that they find comfort and strength , but it didn't change anyone's mind about either McCain or Trump.

I cleaned out the charging port.

Posted by: creeper at September 02, 2018 09:08 AM (l0mIQ)

If you get the little battery symbol with the lightning bolt on it it is charging. yes it will charge faster if it is off but you shouldn't have to do that. If you haven't killed it stone dead it should recharge in 2 hours. And BTW the charger that comes with it is not very powerful. If you have a Gal Tab A like mine it uses a standard USB-B connection unlike the Gal Tab II which uses a proprietary connection.

I bought a three pack of these and they charge mine right up.

That's probably true. From my experience in Noo Yawk, in places like subway stations, stores, etc. the only people who are evangelizing are JWs. They have racks of material attended by several Witnesses trying to pass out literature, so she probably automatically assumed that you are JW. I still think that was a bit rude - she could have asked for clarification on your position, and if she found she were talking to some JW, she should want to correct them against the Arian heresy. Shame you couldn't share even a devotional with someone of like mind.

431 211 The first mr. creeper's ashes came back to me in a brown plastic box. The whole process cost less than a thousand dollars. Maybe it helps if you've known the funeral director all your life.

That's still expensive. My brother was cremated and put in a plastic bag which was put into a very sturdy and well-made pine box.

$250

435 "What is that labor day rule about wearing white? "

I plan on wearing my linen and seersucker suits over the upcoming Jewish holidays. I don't care if it's after Labor Day, if I'm going to be praying for hours at a time I want to be physically comfortable.
