2. Not really

It sounds as if she lost a beloved father, a man she respected and adored and looked up to, a father who loved her back with equal ardor. I envy that. Wish I'd had that father/daughter relationship in my own life.

3. Not a Meghan McCain fan, but it sounds like what a loving daughter would say.

I heard my mom and her two sisters talk about my granddad — born in 1890s — that way. He was “just” a dirt farmer, but got them through depression, was always there, and a lot more. His politics, though, were more along line of FDR.

RIP John McCain. Thank you for your service.

Megan’s two-faced, ignorant, cowardly, self absorbed, Right-Wing, selling-out ass can go to Hell.

6. Yeah, she's pretty much a spoiled asshole who's ridden her father's coattails.

I sympathize with the family and her loss, but she’s still a self-entitle asshole who has no empathy for others.

I can’t stand the entitled, self centered brat. Adoring her father is honorable...enabling the reich wing that is tearing this country apart is typical hypocrisy.

Her father may have been a “good father” for her. Fortunate girl. She is a pathetic tool for the Republican Party that is swimming in the cesspool. Zero respect for her...minimal for her father.

He was no “saint”. Can we quit pretending he was. I’m not up for another “saint Reagan myth”. I’ll bite my tongue for this week, but I expect to push back on this nonsense once he is in the ground.

And she will continue to be the spoiled brat that she has been since hitting the fox training school for bimbos.

9. Her daily behavior betrays all the virtues and values which she supposedly admires and cherishes

in her father. That kind of behavior kinda prevents me from getting weepy.

Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
