Listening to failed politicians hijack the funerals of two such respected American heroes as John McCain and Aretha Franklin so they could smear the sitting president really tells you all you need to know about those washed-up has-beens.
It was particularly strange to listen to all these rabid enemies of McCain in life heaping praise on him in death.
