An American Establishment Hero. John McCain

Just the way he stood up heroically in the Senate
and argued passionatley for his cause with his heroically short arms extended as he emphasised a point, and which gesture was often confused as a plea for somebody to pick him up and hug him, was memorably heroic.

And when he heroically married a divorced woman and accepted her kids as his own that was, obviously, an amasing act of heroism.

And as he flew his jet tens of thousands of feet in the air over that crummy country and then when he heroically bombed those rice farmers in Vietnam, the ones who wore straw hats that looked like inverted woks, because they were different or dominoes or something, made Americans feel proud to be from America where at least we know we're free.

And the way he was heroically captured and stuff and was friends with the prison camp commandant - or not - and then was heroically released to return home and meet some woman in Hawaii and heroically propose to her even though he was still married to that divorcee made all of us happy that we had watched that heroic movie, Divorce American Style.

And when he heroically stood up and heroically insisted that America had not left any men behind in Vietnam, we loved that insane little bastid even as we wondered about the odd goiter on his face that was filled with heroic hatred and cupidity.

And when he heroically took to The Senate floor and promised to bomb back to the stone age any country that began with a vowel and pissed-off his boss, Israel, we were charmed by his heroic hatred of peace. 

John McCain was a hero's hero who was heroically heroic and we are not likely to see the likes of him any time soon.
