The last we checked in on Sarah Palin's defamation lawsuit against the NY Times over a false editorial blaming an electoral map used by Palin for the shooting of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords by Jared Loughner. As we reported at the time of the shooting, there was no connection, it was a fabrication of left-wing bloggers that made its way into the mainstream.

Trump, Palin Explicitly Not Invited To McCain Funeral

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on August 31, 2018 8 Comments

When I first heard that Senator John McCain (R-AZ) explicitly stated that he did not want President Trump to attend his funeral, I was taken aback not only by his petty smallness but by the abrupt change of tune since his insistence that Obama be treated with respect simply because he occupied the Office of the President of these United States.

And more than sufficient. McCain chose the low road.

Instead, he wishes he had "followed his gut" and chosen then-Senator Joe Lieberman (I-CT).
