Further evidence of that rejection came Saturday with the moving funeral of Sen. John S. McCain (R.-Ariz.) at Washington National Cathedral. Every eulogy for McCain was also, implicitly, a rebuke of the president who denied that he was a hero. Subtext became text when the senator’s daughter, Meghan McCain, delivered the most powerful and passionate eulogy I have ever heard. But the McCain funeral offered a welcome moment of hope and grace — a promise of deliverance — at a dark time in our nation’s history. We make history.”I despair today a little less after the uplifting spectacle of the McCain funeral.
