“The Dims asked the same question about John F’in Kerry back in 2004.”
McCain didn’t throw his medals back at the White House. In fact, he was still a POW at the time of Kerry’s big “give-back” and I don’t believe the medals bestowed upon him (McCain) came with an expiration date.
And, if the accounts were correct...he was having a good old time being a POW at that time.
Look, the way I see it we have a classic example of Hobson’s Choice for this Presidential Election:
- We have a definite socialist who is a radical abortion supporter (and who has some questionable ties in his background to radical Islam)
- We have a definite socialist who is a radical abortion supporter (and who has some questionable ties in her background to some pretty unsavory radical 60s groups, as well as a presumptive lesbian affair with a Muslima)
- We have a person whose career since adulthood has been characterized by being a traitor to conservatism (and, if the accounts are correct, was not as honorable as one would like to see while being held captive)
- We have a person whose career has demonstrated a lack of political backbone...and who, apparently, found his conservative roots suspiciously around the same time he decided to run for president. May have been a legitimate conversion of heart, but I wouldn’t bet the farm on it.
So what choice is there this time around? All I can say is that I might...emphasize MIGHT (as in MAYBE)...be able to hold my nose for the last one mentioned. But that’s as far as I will compromise myself.
