McCain acknowledges giving ship locations to the Viet Namese captors in exchange for medical attention.

Seems he and Kerry are birds of a feather and are simply protecting each other.

That’s an offensive analogy. To compare to the two is outrageous as McCain did his duty at great personal cost. I don’t know if McCain told the VC anything, but if he did he did so unwillingly and held out as long as he could.

Disagree with his politics all you want, I often do, but your obvious hatred towards him has unbalanced you.

You are wrong. McCain admitted that he gave up ship positions in exchange for medical attention. Call it what you will, he gave up more than name rank and serial number.

McPain can be an ass, but I've heard remorse from him about not being strong enough standing up to the NV Communists.

OF course not. He was in prison in North Vietnam, not in the south. No VC around there, just NVA (North Vietamese Army). McCain was shot down in late October of '67. Within six months, after Tet of '68, there weren't all that many VC anywhere. Except the "pet" VC that NV pretended were an independent political "Front", like Madamn Binh who Kerry met with.
