    Look at all the Republicans who now support a draft dodger using the flag to insult a disabled veteran.

    Not me. The owners and the public deal with these schmucks most effectively.

    Me, I remember beatching only about Obama not respecting American flag.

    It's called respect.
    You don't have to vote for the man or his party to respect him or his principles,even if you disagree with him.

    Right??

    McCain is suddenly the left's hero and all he had to do to earn that new status was to turn on Trump and his fellow Republicans.

    He could have retired gracefully when he learned his diagnosis. Instead we'll never know how much his cancer truly was affecting his judgement and his mind, but his entire political legacy will now be forever clouded by his last year or so.

    True, most liberals only see the quality of a man as how much you can pilfer from their wallet. The more they have the worse they are, unless its an Ivory Tower liberal, then hypocrisy rules the day...

    I know what socialism is. I forgot to include; reform/rescind the 2nd Amendment, tax/regulate/sue gun manufacturers into oblivion, criminalize ownership of, and ultimately confiscate, scary semiautomatic rifles.

    So yes, you are saying all of those things are socialism.

    Logically then, it would follow that countries who already have policies like those I quoted and that Liberals in America want are socialist countries, yes?

    He made a statement to McCain's family. What do you want from the guy, McCain snubbed him from his funeral while he was still alive. Now Trump is supposed to come out with a glowing review? He did what he should have done and kept quiet.

    I’m just trying to get a fixed standard out of the Right.

    I keep getting told that countries that have all those polices I quoted aren’t socialist when I use them to counter the example of Venezuela.

    again, I know what socialism is.... an economic system that is centered around the public, or collective, ownership of means of production. Like oil production in Venezuela.

    Is this where you tell me American leftists are big ole capitalists?

    Just trying to get a standard out of the Right.

    So Canada, Denmark, Sweden, etc count as Socialist countries and I can use them as counter-examples when Rightists use Venezuela as an example of “socialism always failing”. You would agree with this?

    If veterans and their organizations like the VFW, American Legion, AmVets etc. wouldn't have rebelled, Trump's thin skinned, bruised ego at having someone refusing to kowtow to his every whims would have won out. This petty vindictiveness says mountains about Trump.

    John Kelly and Director of Communications Bill Shine were said to have been instrumental in persuading Trump to take the stick out of his ass and do the right thing.
