I understand that some of you disagree with John McCain’s politics.
I do as well.
Additionally, I live in Arizona. So… I hear about it a lot.
But one thing I will NEVER do is hope ill health on anyone. Despite my differences with him, he is a father and a husband, and my heart aches for what he and his family are going through.
I think people should think twice before making any nasty comments about this sad situation… because is that really the kind of person you want to be? The kind of person who wishes someone’s death on the internet? Why don’t you just keep it to yourself? I certainly don’t want to hear about it.
Now that I’ve gotten that CLEARED UP…
Things aren’t looking great for him, guys…
And a weird, now-deleted tweet from his son-in-law seems like an ominous warning of declining health.
McCain’s son-in-law caused a stir on Saturday when he posted a cryptic tweet about the Republican Arizona senator, who’s currently battling an aggressive form of brain cancer.
Conservative pundit Ben Domenech, Meghan McCain’s husband, said: ‘John hugged me tonight. He asked me to take care of Meghan. I said I would.
‘F**k you soulless crazies. F**k you all the way to hell.
It’s unclear who the ‘soulless crazies’ are.
The publisher of the Federalist deleted the tweet soon after posting it, as reported by AzCentral.
Yikes…
So, that went from touching and sad to a little unhinged very quickly. I get it though, people have been pretty ruthless about McCain’s illness.
Maybe the stress of it all is really getting to him.
I can’t imagine what it’s like to be losing a loved one, and read comments all over the internet of people HOPING for that person’s death.
It’s enough to drive anyone over the edge, I think.
According to McCain’s wife Cindy, he was recently released from the hospital after having surgery for an intestinal infection.

My husband @SenJohnMcCain is doing well after his surgery. Looking forward to getting back to Hidden Valley!

Again… I disagree with a LOT of what John McCain has done and said…
But I would never wish anyone any harm. Him included.
I wish him and his family the very best at what must be an incredibly difficult time.
