Sarah Palin isn't invited to John McCain's memorial services

Palin mourned McCain in a tweet Saturday night after his death, calling him her "friend."

Guess not.

McCain said in the months before his death that he regretted not picking then-Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman as his running mate in 2008. The New York Times reported in May that McCain said not choosing Lieberman was "another mistake that I made."

Palin, in response, said to NBC News that she had "a lot of respect" for McCain, but his comments were a "gut punch."

"I don't lie, so I'll tell you -- a bit. You know, I think I described it earlier as a gut punch," Palin said at the time. "But again, I'm going to choose to look back on the good times that we did have together."

"It is kind of sad to hear that he and or someone speaking for him does have regrets," Palin added. "And I hope that he finds that kind of peace and contentment also to be able to look back on decisions and realize, really, things work out the way that they're supposed to work out."

She was a rotten choice, but I don't think that's quite fair. Thanks to the Shrubcession and other reasons to be disgusted with the GOP, I don't think that McCain ever had a chance.

Joe Lieberman wouldn't have necessarily helped.
Respectable in some ways, but kind of a limp rag. I've never seen anyone excited about him.
He crashed and burned just 4 years earlier on Super Tuesday, February 3, 2004.
Moderate doesn't necessarily translate to popular. He may not have picked up many Dems and may have lost McCain some Repugs.

It was a sign of McCain's dire straights that his Hail Mary options were Sarah Palin and Joe Lieberman.

So amazing that she is too fucking stupid to see that she is, has been and always will be a "punch in the gut" to intelligence and good taste at every level.

Sadly, exactly those "assets" may have paved the way for POSPOTUS more than any other. I wonder if McCain ever pondered the irony of the extent to which he was responsible for Dolt .45.

What he did to Dubya is save him from being the worst POTUS in modern history.

I consider that he also eclipses Nixon in the corruption category; at least Nixon was discreet about it. Also, if Joe Isuzu had even been president, trump would far surpass Joe in blatant lies.

Suspects who allegedly vandalized Gerald Ford's grave turn themselves in

They tried hitting golf balls at the memorial, but they kept missing it by a mile.

Jerry would pardon them, even if they covered up an assault on our democracy.

Many people say that when they inadvertently bumped into Jerry and they'd say "pardon me" he'd whip out his pen and start writing. It was somewhat awkward.

Found:

Three people have been elected to the presidency on the basis of their presumed success in the business world: Herbert Hoover, a successful engineer; George W. Bush, the first MBA president, and Donald Trump, a self proclaimed tycoon with a track record of multiple bankruptcies. All three have left, or will have left, office with the economy in a shambles, and Bush and Trump inherited a very healthy economy. Why should the country elect this one to another four years?

Poll Ranks Barack And Michelle Obama As The World's Most Admired Man And Woman

... Other prominent people high on the list included Chinese President Xi Jinping, who ranked third, the Dalai Lama, eighth, businessman and entrepreneur Elon Musk, ninth, Russian President Vladimir Putin, 12th, and President Donald Trump, 15th.

Ranking second, third and fourth on the list, respectively, were actress and social activist Angelina Jolie, Queen Elizabeth II and talk show host and author Oprah Winfrey. Hillary Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, came in 13th, while first lady Melania Trump was 19th. Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres placed 20th ― a drop of five spots from her previous rank in 2019, possibly due to allegations that she has overseen of a toxic work environment on her program....



According to YouGov’s analysis of the results, Barack Obama was notably more admired than Trump in all countries aside from Russia....

... YouGov’s finding strictly within the U.S. found that Barack Obama again ranked first among men, followed by Trump, former President Jimmy Carter, actor Tom Hanks and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
