That's the plane (A-4 Skyhawk) in which McCain got shot down. Not sure what it says about the symbolism of the cartoon.

Also the type he was in for the Forrestal fire. Seems to be what he flew for most of his active duty. At least it's not the A-1 which he crashed two examples of and hit power lines with once.

Corbyn is ineffectual as gently caress but at least looks like what a daddy's-money urban leftist podcaster thinks is revolutionary.

Which makes him the best leader for any political party in Britain, possibly excluding Sturgeon if you really don't like Westminster running the country. Which, to be fair, is a completely sane opinion to have with this clusterfuck.

Corbyn is an old fool not really up to date on anything... but he means well. With the clown show of incompetence and malice Britain is, this makes him better than any other choice that's shown up.

You see according to the Bible there was no sin before the fall, and one of the products of a sinful world is disease, so look how crazy those Old-Earth Creationists are for thinking there was cancer before Adam and Eve ate the apple and were banished from Eden.

quote:

It’s time for John McCain to retire. It’s long past due.

Forget what you read about McCain on Wikipedia and other state-sponsored sites. His history has been sanitized and covered up by the globalists.

Here we have a man whose powerful, 4-star admiral father made sure he got many undeserved breaks in life. He grew up as a smart assed, entitled brat. McCain finished 894th out of 899 at the Naval Academy. He said he enjoyed being off-duty more than flying. He drove a fast car, chased women and gambled. He fancied himself as a ‘maverick.'

He recklessly crashed several planes because he enjoyed being a daredevil. His flying record should have gotten him tossed out of the military, but he knew he was immune due to his powerful connections. He wet-started his jet engine as a jape and it caused the plane behind him to fire a missile. McCain quickly dropped his bombs and ran below decks—never bothering to help in the fire-fighting effort. His bombs exploded and almost sunk the Forrestal. 134 sailors were killed and a helicopter whisked McCain away because many in the crew wanted his scalp.

He sang like a bird while being a POW in Vietnam and disclosed highly classified information to his captors. To be sure, he did suffer broken bones and was bayonetted upon his capture, but when the North Vietnamese realized they had an Admiral’s son, he received special treatment. When he returned to America, he cruelly divorced his wife, who was hospitalized for a long while after a car accident. He then married a rich woman who could fund his political ambitions. Once in power, he then systematically voted against veterans and MIAs.

Trump was right to speak out against McCain, and now the senator harbors a grudge. The anti-vet, warmongering McCain needs to retire before he causes more grief.

—Ben Garrison

Wow, Bee Gee, you really showed that McCain fellow what for! he won't be showing HIS nose here again anytime soon!
*Trump's entire cabinet explodes due to incompetence in the background, demons emerge from the ground and begin eating the innocent*
Yep, with him gone we can finally be free to make America great again, boy howdy!

Garrison's criticisms of McCain have a grain of truth to them (he really did sing bomb, bomb Iran, for example), but there's a lot of paranoid nonsense mixed in (Wikipedia is "state-sponsored"?), and in the implied context (pushing back against McCain's criticism of Trump's statements about the press), it's irrelevant ad hominems.

It's actually interesting how "Clinton is a Warhawk, Trump offers peace / Clinton-Obama were soft on Mideast, Trump will be strong" became one of the pinnacles of Trumpist doublethink. It's not like that for every single item of Trump's agenda, since in some cases the logic is stupid but not self-evidently contradictory. You don't need to make a pretzel out of your brain to agree with it, you just need to be dense and/or a bigot. But on foreign policy the entire concept rests on you being able to completely excise of your mind the question of whether Trump is being aggresive or peaceful, soft or tough. It doesn't matter. Your position on foreign policy becomes "Trump."

Choose either brazen shamelessness or remarkable compartmentalization, given that he spends the first half of his article bitching about how McCain is an inheritance baby that used his connections to avoid the consequences of his actions and criticizes him for being a lot of "outsider/maverick" talk without much actual substance.
