I suspect the Swift Boat Vets have issues with McCain abandoning the POWs in Viet Nam. There is some information that he shredded original documents that seemed to prove there were live prisoners still in VN

"I suspect the Swift Boat Vets have issues with McCain abandoning the POWs in Viet Nam. There is some information that he shredded original documents that seemed to prove there were live prisoners still in VN"

I recall seeing that sometime back and it was also included in the Max Freidman article I posted:

"Congress then regained a little sanity and revoted to aid the freedom fighters in Nicaragua, which led to the military stalemate in that country and then to free elections that ousted the Reds.

Kerry and Harkin have a lot to answer for on this one, and Kerry misspent millions of investigation dollars on a communist-perpetrated fraud regarding the so-called Contras and drugs in Latin America. Some of the key people Kerry relied on for information were avowed supporters of Hanoi and the VC, a self-proclaimed saboteur, an finger wound exaggerator (just like Kerry), and an FBI informant who committed perjury before Congress.

You might also want to ask Kerry and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) about the destruction of secret documents from the POW/MIA Task Force they headed in the mid-1990s, as well as their deal to cut out the human-rights requirements and live-sightings reports issue from the conditions for any diplomatic recognition of Hanoi's dictatorship. Former POWs and the families of MIAs are seething at this betrayal, which is why many Vietnam veterans will never vote for John McCain.

A member of this task force is available for any hearing on what happened to those files."
