I wonder if he will step down? He was and is a giant

I wouldn’t be surprised. Even a benign tumor at his age would be very difficult to deal with.

Fuck. I haven’t liked him at times, but I’ve never for a moment doubted that he was genuine in his love and service to this country. He’s an old sort of politician who sees being a senator as a public duty and I’ll be destroyed when he isn’t around anymore.

It’s hard for me to describe my feelings, but I’m genuinely sad. They don’t make them like him any more, and even when I vehemently disagreed with him, his presence is a source of comfort for me.

One of the good ones. He’s said things I don’t like but he genuinely cares for this country, and has spent his life trying to make it better.

Pretty ironic considering he was against closing off the areas around the Grand Canyon to uranium mining. Maybe he should be forced to receive treatment on the Navajo Reservation.

This is very sad. I wish him the best. I also hope he comes back and stays in office for as long as he physically can.

What I’m not looking forward to is whatever The Annoying Orange says about him publicly.

I’m a little drunk, so excuse this, but I genuinely cannot bear the thought of that self-serving cocksucker capitalizing on this by eulogizing him. Someone of his statue deserves much better.

What Honeybunchesofgoats said. He went through hell for this country, and continues to serve his country as best as he can for his entire life.

Sometimes I agree with him, sometimes I don’t. But I always respect him, and really appreciate that he doesn’t follow his party lock step. We need more like him on both sides of the aisle.

Hope there continues to be a bright future for him.

That is too bad. Like others have said, I don’t always agree with him, but I respect him very much.

I wish him all the best from the bottom for my heart. My family volunteered for his campaign back in ‘08. I still have my brand new, unused McCain bumper sticker on my desk. I’m praying for him and hope he pulls through.

Why is he a hero? He just did the job he signed up for.

When the job you signed up for includes getting shot at by people trying to kill you on a regular basis, you get extra credit.

That doesn’t even touch on the fact that he could’ve had strings pulled and got out of the POW camp early because of his father, but he didn’t take the special treatment. Maybe you don’t call that being a hero but it’s definitely ballsy and honorable.
