If there is a hell, I hope for a special kind of it for John McCain.

[boston bean]

His vote was the most shockingly tone deaf, immoral and unethical of them all.

To fly in from your sick bed that is being paid for by American taxpayers, from one of the most reknowned healthcare facilities in the world, to make this vote was just astonishingly cruel.

I hope he dies a painful and agonizing death. One for which no money in the world will spare him the discomfort.

Because that is what he voted for, for others.

1. This is not shocking.... really, McCain has a history of selling others out...

...when it meets his needs. The Keating Five was a good example. McCain was up in it to his brown-shit eyes, and when the gig was falling apart, was the first to roll, purposely incriminating others, inflating their roles in the scandal while minimizing his own. McCain's superpower is being able to hop on whatever bandwagon suits his purposes at the time and it does not matter if it is at someone else's expense. McCain will do what is expedient for McCain: Sarah Palin is a good example.

2. When he arrived at the Senate I started swearing and didn't stop

until my power went out for over an hour in the middle of his speech. It was a saving grace since if I had continued my poor little dog probably would've had a heart attack. I ran out of profanity in English and had to switch to swearing in Italian, French, and German...I had to go back to my high school foreign language vocab.

I am glad I was true to myself and wished him the worst last week (once a GOP monster, always a GOP monster).

3. a now retired colleague said to me once about a similar situation -

Do I wish him to die a painful and agonizing death? No.

Will I be sorry for him when it happens? No.

[gordianot]

4. That is a commendable policy.

There are some it is tempting to piss on the grave not McCain. It is best to just say "no".

5. Karma is a bitch......

he will get his do!

6. Dante writes that there is a special place in the eighth level of hell for hypocrites.

The murderer of the 134 sailors on the USS Forestall because of his "wet start" prank
(he was exonerated by Admiral daddy) ,
has returned to DC to vote against poor people having good insurance,
by interrupting his "Congressional Cadillac" cancer treatments.
What do the lives of a few million poor mean to him?
His "we need to co-operate" speech is meaningless considering that
just prior he was the deciding vote to begin O'care repeal debate,
and later voted FOR the "Crazy Cruz" plan.
Hypocrite Johnny will have lots of company.

7. To be exclusive, one has to exclude someone

Rise up by stepping on others.
Feel superior by keeping others down.
In order to win, others must lose.

It's basically the GOP platform.

[Dorn]

8. Why kvetch only at McCain? There were 50 other republicans who voted the same way!

'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters --- you did for me.'

9. Then give a rousing speech exhorting working together

and return to regular process (which he just voted against), proclaimed he wouldn't vote yes on any of these bills (then voted yes on the first one), and lied about the ACA.
