Why would he want to cover up the POW/MIA issue? Unless he benefits by the cover-up?
Yes he does. See the link I posted, 'Inquiry'. I believe the 3rd post from the end has info on the business deal benefits he will receive.
"Why would he want to cover up the POW/MIA issue?"
Likely for the same reason that he has asked the Viets to NOT release all of the documents (text, audio, and audio/video) he created while he was in captivity. Sort of like kerry not signing SF-180.
Pretty simple actually...big $$$'s in "fair play" for North VN. McCain stooges for Kerry in the senate hearings in which they bury the POW/MIA activists and issues and gain "normalized" relations for VN. Then Kerry is awarded a hugh multibillion real estate deal by VN, but "laundered" thru his cousins (Forbes) company. Then laundered $$$'s find their way from the Forbes/Kerry enterprise to McCain as payoff for "stooging" as bipartisan RINO in the "bury POW's" exercise.
This is not unusual for McCain. He played a similar role for klintoon in the bombing of Serbia in which he (McCain) demanded klintoon put US forces on the ground in Kosovo to drive Serb military forces out and win the land for islamofascist expansion. Served two purposes: (1) made klintoon appear moderate, and (2) earned McCain big $$$'s from the Albanian-American Friendship league (or whatver the hell they called themselves at the time), an islamofascist "front" group operating at the time out of New York city. I think they folded their tent since 911. McCain, it seems, is always willing to plant a knife in someones back in exchange for $$$'s.
Don't know; why would John Kerry?
