to her dad Senator John McCain...
Here are some of her words:Meghan McCain, speaking at her father's memorial ceremony in Washington, D.C.'s National Cathedral, gave a forceful rebuke to the rhetoric coming out of the White House just a few miles away,
defining the America of John McCain as one that is generous and welcoming, modest yet strong -- and already great."The America of John McCain is, yes, the America of Vietnam, fighting the fight, even in the most grim circumstances, even in the most distant, hostile corner of the world, standing for the life and liberty of other peoples in other lands,
" McCain said."The America of John McCain is generous and welcoming and bold. She's resourceful, confident, secure. She meets her responsibilities. She speaks quietly because she's strong. America does not boast because she has no need to. The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again because America was always great."
The bipartisan crowd of dignitaries applauded.

Although she did not lose control, she stood there bravely and weeping as she spoke about her dad.
Although she didn't mention him by name -- and he was not present at the service, in accordance with the late senator's wishes -- she made several unmistakable and pointed references throughout her emotional remarks.

I'm going to remember this eulogy for the rest of my life. She certainly did her father justice. And yes, I cried.

Me too 'cleans'...I felt her pain and despair....to be there to honor her dad, while he lay there in that casket, must have been torture...
and what was the UNINVITED doing while Meghans heart was breaking..........tweeting insults towards others....I really do think he's a demented devil, just a monster and he gives me the creeps!!
"On his way to his Virginia golf club, he unleashed a few more combative tweets threatening to terminate a trade agreement with Canada and warning that “Congress should not interfere w/these negotiations.” By the end of the day, in a possible rejoinder to Ms. McCain, he tweeted in all caps: “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.”

One thing I know for sure is that the entire world is mourning the loss of a true American patriot. He put country ahead of party. He was great friends with Ted Kennedy and Joe Biden....2 democrats. He asked President Obama to deliver his eulogy. They were adversaries, but they respected one another. That speaks volumes about John McCain.
As for the sitting president......he hates it that McCain is being given all of the attention. He is a small pathetic man baby.
And Jared and Ivanka shout not have attended the memorial. I'm surprised they were allowed in.

Ivanka was even singing some of the hymns.....something is really wrong with these people....they are all suffering from dementia
