Are you kidding?

McCain suffered at the hands of the Viet Cong.

He was tortured, and suffers from the after effects.

The one reason that we don’t need to have him as our CIC
is that he is mentally deficient.

Posted as a wife of a Viet Nam vet...

Through Russia’s proxy the NVA you mean. He was in Hanoi, no? I meant his service makes him immediately someone to garner concern or respect from our foreign adversaries. He’s not a civilian ingenue. He’s an American Imperialist to the hilt. They keep saying we can’t afford another one of those guys but I wonder.

And???

Okay, so you’re posting as the wife of a Vietnam vet but the language you use suggests that your sentiments are representative of every wife of every Vietnam veteran, former POW or not.

The Dixie Chicks...more like “The Chicksie Dix”.

Incorrect. McCain was a prisoner in Hanoi. The VC were not in charge of the prisoner camps in Hanoi. The NVA, North Vietnamese Army was. The VC were terrorists in the south.

A picture of McCain with Mai Van, one of the men who allegedly captured him.
