McCain repeatedly offended POW families at a Senate POW hearing

McCain WAS a POW... how did he allegedly offend these families?

McCain was a POW, but after becoming a US Senator political necessity - normalization of relations with Viet Nam - became more important than the POWs.

McCain makes it a habit of offending people.

FYI, there was a Senate investigation into POW's still being held in Vietnam - which was chaired by messrs McCain & KERRY.

These two scum-sucking maggots did everything in their power to discount all reports, sightings and PHOTOGRAPHS of our boys still being held by the commies. These pukes deep-sixed the senate 'investigation' from the get go.

Thereafter they led the effort to NORMALIZE relations with communist Vietnam. And after we normalized relations, KERRY'S B-I-L closed a multi-million dollar contract with communist Vietnam. Some coincidence, huh!

There are also 'stories' of McCainiac collaborating with the NVA to get preferential medical treatment for his wounds when captured - unlike Adm James Stockdale₁ who was brutally torture while a POW almost daily.

1 - Remember Stockdale as Perot's VEEP candidate? He was derided by the MSM a loon.
