The proper adjective could probably be used to describe someone who is a McCain defender in a deep state of denial.
The story of McCain “wet starting” his jet and shooting flames and jet fuel across a deck filled with planes loaded with vulnerable old munitions are said to have begun circulating immediately after the tragedy. Smart guy, maybe you can tell me how many other uninjured Forestall crew members were immediately whisked away by helicopter
Official whitewash aside... the people in charge most likely assumed because of his previous behavior and the eye witness accounts of the wet start that McCain was responsible. The truth about McCain is that he was a spoiled rotten hotshot and assumed he could get away with anything because of his family connections. He should not have been allowed to fly a military aircraft again after he destroyed the first one. Many lives most likely would have been saved.
As far as the links I provided... those were merely the first two... if you want to take the time there are far more damning links further down in the search results. They are largely far less charitable than the two that I provided. So your little hissy fit aside... McCain is the most worthless RINO waste of flesh currently in existence. He should be charged with sedition and thrown in Gitmo before he manages to do any further damage.
It’s been debunked a hundred time. It makes FR look stupid and gullible.
Why don't you take the time to read the thread I linked to. Read the comments of FReepers who were there. Read the Navy investigation or watch one of the documentaries on it. Read my posts.
If you still want to argue it then do it on that thread and take it point by point.
