Someone is suggesting that McCain was a collaborator? Who? Where? Has the Left really sunk this low?

First saw it on this left-wing website.

They have a few other articles listed in the search, directly accusing McCain of collaboration, but they seem to have purged them from their archives.

Personally I could care less about Vietnam or what he may have or not have done. People who think they can win elections on their military service don’t mean a damn thing to me anymore. What matters is your character and can you fix problems. What I have seen is a full blown traitor to his party and his president. A backstabbing egotistical liberal RINO opportunist who has no solutions to jack or sh!t and who hates Conservatives.

Even if you were there, you wouldn't know who or who did not collaborate or whether
“all” broke eventually. It's not wise to ask these men to come forward unless you know what they will say.

I think McCain’s POW experience gets too much ink from both ends, from those who view it as a great heroic feat of survival, and those who claim he was not the model American POW.

It’s something to be mentioned, but it just doesn’t have a lot of relevance to who would or would not make a good president. Almost 600 Vietnam POWs returned home, so if that experience should be constantly brought up, then let’s honor all the POws from that era.

But since it’s constantly brought up, there is a logical question of whether that long and brutal experience made him more or less psychologically suited to be president?

Ted Sampley of anti Kerry fame is the source of a lot of this stuff.

Senator McCain likely did break, as did most of the VietNam POW's. That does not equate to collaboration.
