Former Presidents @ジョージ・H・W・ブッシュ and @Barack Obama, the 2 men who thwarted John McCain’s ambitions to become commander in chief, stood one after the other before the nation’s elite at Washington National Cathedral today to honor the man they defeated, extolling him as a one-of-a-kind figure the likes of which will not be seen again anytime soon. “So much of our politics, our public life, our public discourse, can seem small and mean and petty, trafficking in bombast and insult, in phony controversies and manufactured outrage,” @Barack Obama said. “It’s a politics that pretends to be brave, but in fact is born of fear. John called us to be bigger than that. He called us to be better than that.” Mr. McCain, who died last weekend at 81, directed his own farewell with the same contrarian spirit that flavored his political career. As he battled brain cancer, he told his advisers months ago that he wanted @ジョージ・H・W・ブッシュ and @Barack Obama to speak at his funeral, then called each of them to make the request. The point was to emphasize the common values that they shared despite their differences. “I was grateful, I wasn’t surprised,” @Barack Obama said. “I never saw John treat anyone differently because of their race, or religion, or gender.” @tom_brenner took this photo of #BarackObama at #JohnMcCain’s funeral.
