How about is it wrong for Senator McCain to criticize the president on a difficult military mission?

The entire thing was planned and approved during the Obama administration. It just happened that the first moonless night was days after Trump was inaugurated.

What President Trump is saying is there is a grieving family that doesn’t need McCain trying to gain the spotlight over the body of their loved one

All those brave men who flew the skies of Vietnam in anonymity and came home unscathed were never publicly proclaimed heroes. He gets shot down and begins cooperating with the enemy and gets to be called a hero.

If he was ever a hero - and we can give him his due for the combat flights over VN - it ended with his first confession.

Since then, bald collaboration with democrats, America’s internal enemy.

How many did Obama criticize during his terms? That’s what needs to be asked of the hypocritical lefties.

Benedict Arnold was a war hero until he wasn’t.

Sarah Palin got my vote in 2008...and he unfortunately came along as extra baggage...during the election.

There is nothing that has not already been demostrated by McCain himself, i.e., Keating Five, Soros funding, calling the Tea Party kooks, that would warrant any comment that could be tranlated as ‘a warm fuzzy’.

John McCain is exempt from criticism?! Did that apply in 2008? Gawd knows he’s done a lot that deserves criticism. A lot. His signature senatorial achievement was passing an eponymous bill that limited free speech.

LOL, at best, “hero” means you had one good day. It isn’t license to be a traitor, a lout, and a bribed politician forever and it doesn’t make you an expert on any other topic.

Pappy Boyington said it. “Show me a hero, and i’ll prove he’s a bum”.

“There is no question that McCain was a POW for five years, and thus an American hero.”

Being a POW doesn’t make you a hero. A POW can do heroic things and attain that status. But just being a POW in itself doesn’t make you a hero.

For example, the British military in WWII stopped the pay of anyone taken prisoner. Let that sink in.

Responding to criticism is not criticism.

Biased poll off the bat.
