Yeah, but McCain will still have the respect and support of former Communist North Vietnamese veterans:
Like Colonel Bui Tin, one of McCain's interrogators.
What a heartwarming image, two old friends reunited like that.
If McCain supports this, he will lose whatever amount of support he has from veterans. Unconscionable.
I am curious as to who else is getting cut in the govt? congress? foreign aid? illegals? sure, that may not make up for the deficit but if I was a soldier that just completed 20 yrs and was face with paying for my insurance (after tours of duty in war zones) I would be furious. It is a wonder they don’t descend on DC like the OWS crowds
This is McCain’s last lap around the old senate. I think he’s 75. That will make him 80 when his number comes up again.
He’s just doing now what he wants to do; probably what he’s always believed in down deep.
