Has anyone else noticed that the funeral for Bush is much more low-key than the self designed funeral for McCain?  Bush, as a former President, and war hero, asked that Hail to the Chief not be played.  If McCain could have figured out a way - you just know he would have had it played for himself.   One man is entitled to have a state funeral with all the bells and whistles, and wanted to eliminate most of them, and McCain wanted everything, even the ones he wasn't entitled to.  

You never heard Bush brag about being a war hero, yet McCain could never stop talking about it.  One was actually the President and retired and the other was only a pretender to the office.

I must have missed Hound's praise of another modest war hero when he passed...Sen George McGovern.
