John McCain died last night

John McCain died last night. I did not vote for him. I did not agree with most of his political views. But I had a heck of a lot of respect for him.

Hero? Patriot? Maverick? Renegade? All fit the man.

He served during the Viet Nam war. Was captured. Tortured. Suffered. Says Donald Trump "I like people that weren't captured". Say I "I like people that served our country". Not shirked their duty. McCain served. And paid dearly for that service. More deserving of a military parade for sure. Certainly a hero. Always a patriot.

Willing to stand up for what he believed in. While his fellow party members voted almost to a man and woman against Obamacare he stood his ground and turned the tide.

No matter what the cost. That seems to sum up the mans life. He did what he believed in. Stood up for what he believed in. No matter what the cost.

One of kind. Perhaps the last Republican with morals, ethics and integrity.

Certainly a maverick. Always a renegade.

RIP John McCain. Not sure we will ever see another like you.
