Yep, mcCain was 99% for himself and 1% for America when he was serving time in a Vietnamese concentration camp. What a coward.

That is just about the lamest strawman in the room today.

You just made a wonderful argument for the election of George McGovern. Although you probably weren't aware of it.

Congratulations.

I cannot honor McCain enough for his war service. I cannot imagine what he went through. I will leave it to others, maybe those who were there also, to critique his time in Vietnam.

But I can wholeheartedly salute him on that and still say he's a lousy senator and/or a lousy Republican.

We have to keep the issues separate. I am peeved also, but I didn't like seeing questions about his war record come up since Monday. if there's an equivalent of the Swifties to critique McCain, that's their right. i don't feel qualified to do that.

Keep 'em separate, folks, is my (unsolicited) advice.

He apparently had no choice about the POW camp as he now enjoys in the Senate, and that "service" does not automatically qualify him to be a senator...if it did there are plenty of others out there to choose from who think more clearly and are less self centered. I'm tired of him riding the POW horse. Enough already.
