Because he and Obama became good friends when he was president, and always respected one another?

They worked together in the Senate and their relationship was respectful and not just limited to the year 2008.

You wouldn't want the first black president to deliver a eulogy at your funeral if you could?

Because for some people, believe it or not, being on opposite sides of the political aisle doesnt mean you cant have respect or even friendship.

I'm shocked that he doesn't want that draft-dodging narcissist who shit on him for being a POW at his funeral

If he tried showing up uninvited he'd probably just be turned away at the door.

Then of course he'd whine about it on twitter after

Considering how much prep work would have to go into it if he did decide to show up, I'm gonna go with "yes he won't be there".

Because normal people can still be friends even with political differences. Unlike the raging milennials today who literally can't look past someone if they have 1 small thing they disagree with.

I actually gotta say that only appears to be true on social issues, and I can understand why thats a line in the sand for some

I dont know many people who entirely refuse to associate with others based on economic strategy. Plenty of people who wont be friends with a racist or even just someone who doesnt think gay marriage should be legal, and frankly thats a fairly personal and reasonable boundary, especially if you or someone close to you are gay, etc

At least thats mostly true left to right, there may be some right-wing folks who refuse to talk to a socialist but I cant say that with any authority

I mean it's perfectly reasonable to not associate with someone if their 'disagreement' is "LGBTQ+ people shouldn't have equal rights" or "poor people deserve to suffer"

The latter is a little nebulous if those are words being put in their mouth, but some people actually basically think that and youre correct about them

His opposition to Trump was such that, rather than resign in time for his constituents to vote on his replacement, he let the Trump-supporting governor appoint a Trump-supporting replacement to serve until 2020.

you think that's alpha?

that sounds like something some neckbearded frustrated basement dweller would say on a youtube comment

i guess beta losers see trump as some alpha male though, when the rest of the world sees trump as an insecure man child

- Mood swings
- Jealousy issues
- Obese

The fact that the left likes McCain so much now proves that their antiwar position during the Bush years was pure partisan bullshit. You guys are more offended by tweets than by war atrocities. That's why you like people like McCain, Hillary, and Obama. Trump is doing shit in the ME as well but that's never what you criticize him for.

The majority of Americans supported the Iraq War in 2003. The push against Bush on war came as the war in Afghanistan and war in Iraq persisted despite victory being declared.
