Actually, he’s Jamaican.

Hopefully this will do more for Republicans than their widespread hatred. What’s not to like about courage and decency.

Gawker, in its understated way:

Good on Jack.

If he’s active duty, he’s not going to be making overtly political commentary about Republicans.

As far as Gramps McCain goes, he makes a sensible observation about once a month, which is more than I can say about the vast majority of Republicans.

GrandPa Mac, pushing 80, may not be aware she’s African American. Probably convinced himself his daughter in law just has a good AZ tan.

McCain has his good moments occasionally.

He must have quite a bit of pot stashed under that chapeau he’s wearing.

As a serving officer he’s not supposed to talk about his personal political views.

I think the kid could teach the old man a thing or two. I remember when Daddy Mac referred to Obama in the debates as “That one!”

Feels good to cheer for a McCain again, after all these years

I thought you were going to say he is orange and his wife is white.

I don’t know many extended families these days without an interracial couple some where in the mix.

You are an asshole. I am sure after you are “Berned-out” you will be just another Trump yahoo like the goons talking to Cruz yesterday.

In 2008 McCain stopped a campaign rally to call out a person who was calling Obama a Muslim. I do not like his political principles,and he gets too cranky for my liking, but he is not senile, and is a fundamentally decent human being in a party that elects fewer and fewer of those these days. That the Bushes attacked him in 2000 for adopting a child of color and that he bore that gracefully tells you what you need to know about him as a human being, and the Bushes as a family of persons of low character.

McCain has adopted a child of color. He defended Obama against charges that he was a Muslim. No matter how ridiculous the charge was, he did so at risk of alienating what he had of supporters. I am astonished at all of the comments who are calling McCain racist. He is not, and never was.

Good for Jack and Renee.

Jack’s grandfather was a U.S. submarine commander in the Pacific during WWII, and his great-grandfather was a senior admiral during that war. They’re not “Old Navy,” they’re Old Navy.

Nope, his son in law is black and very Rastafarian. Also, the child is the grandchild he and his wife moved to FL to be near.

I actually went to high school with Jack (Brophy College Prep Class of 2004 Go Broncos!) He’s a good guy. He’s a Republican to be sure, but he’s also a Millenial. I’d be surprised if he didn’t end up running for office someday, though I don’t think he’s necessarily gunning for that.
