Mourning Senator John McCain

In this busy week, we've made time to watch the tributes to the late Senator John McCain, R-Arizona. He died on August 25, a week ago today.

This morning, his casket left the US Capitol and stopped at the Vietnam War Memorial where his widow, Cindy McCain, laid a wreath. The procession continued to the National Cathedral, where the funeral began at about 9:00 a.m. ET.

The tributes to the late Senator are numerous and eloquent. The world needs a hero right now and Senator McCain has once again risen to the occasion. RIP.

  1. I watched a lot of it too. I remeber him from Time magazine stories about him when he was in captivity, in a cage too small to stand up in. How anyone could say he was not a hero is unfathomable and so ignorant.
