Well, let’s place McCain’s records alongside of Obama’s records. Then we will see who did the more respected service in the military.

I’m convinced that most, if not all, of this garbage is perpetrated by the Hussein campaigns 400 Internet bloggers who are dedicated to ‘fighting the smears’ against their Empty Suit. Course, fighting the smears means starting smears.

Gee, what exactly has Barry done to warrant the constant media praise and fainting teenyboppers? Anyone, anyone?

I most surely hate the McCain Congress performance. One thing I will not do is aid in knocking his military service.

If the other side wants to take that road, it is up to them. I doubt it would be a winning idea for them.

This is the sort of thing that will drive people to vote against Obama.

Kerry made the mistake of trying to make his military record into something that it wasn’t. Trying to minimize the record of a POW (who re-enlisted after his release), when your candidate has no military record at all, is an enormous blunder, much bigger than Kerry’s mistake.

Most of these posts you link to are pointless kibitzing.

There are some vets who don't think McCain should have received as many medals as he did.

I think that question should be addressed to the men held prisoner with McCain. From what I understand, those men don't question his medals.

Don't look for it in the McCain file because it doesn't exist.

Not a big McCain supporter. However, he served with honor.

As far as I can see, Barry never served anything but himself.

Hey, Obama troll. While McCain’s record may not be perfect, getting crap from Obama trolls is the height of ridiculousness.

And this is coming from someone, me, who cant stand McCain.

Nice posting record, BTW:
