>>>Is the guy a democrat ?
Who? McCain? I think so.
It occurred during his 1992 Senate reelection campaign. Three reporters were witnesses. McCain attributed it to being tired. I kindly ask you to Google the C-word and Cindy McCain and read. I really don’t want to post such profanity here.
If I were the Vietnamese I would be very nervous.
As a graduate of USNA and survivor of a “real Plebe year”..and a survivor of torture and interogation by the NVN..my guess is that McCain knows how to use and control his temper.
For those of you have never had the experience of having being called various names and yelled at while “shoved out” and sweating from a few hundred push ups..well you learn to control your temper.
Then the next minute your tormentor starts eating his ice cream..that you gave up.
And the Terrible Tenth was worse.
I personally view McCain's position on the POW issue to be one of his finest moments. He could have said nothing or supported further investigations under the cover of his 5 plus year POW status. He didn't. He took the hard, courageous road.
Those wanting a Mr. Rogers in the White House should vote for Barack.
So, to avoid the possibility of being compared to Ward Churchill...I passed on commenting.
“”But McCain went on: ‘I wouldn’t call you an a–hole unless you really were an a–hole.”””
Now THAT is something rare in politics. Someone actually telling it like it is. I ADMIRE a politician who don’t mince words. I ADMIRE a politician who won’t back down without a fight.
Too many politicians fold when confronted. As Rush calls them the “New CAstrade”. It takes BALLS to stand your ground. Few if any current politicians have ever even served the military in combat, let alone been a POW.
I suspect most politicians under the same circumstances would spill their guts as the traitors they currently portray.
The traitors mince words like “ I didn’t say it as good as I should have” or “I didn’t mean to say it like that and this is what I really ment to say”........
What kind of message does a demoRat send when they can’t be decisive and stand their ground when confronted???
It sure is not strength or leadership!
Temper is not a negative issue. Submission is a negative.
Wow. This is the best they can do?
“We are no longer at war and it takes a real dork to try to keep this alive.”
How DARE YOU call dorks those mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and wives who live every day of their lives not knowing what happened to their loved ones because certain people within our government were eager to sweep the past under the rug and, for their own reasons, make nicey-nice, kissy face with the Communist Vietnamese.
They are the “dorks” keeping this issue alive. They and veterans who will never, NEVER forget the ones our perfidious government left behind.
Senator McCain is a believer in peace, my a*s. Senator McCain believes in Senator McCain.
Thanks for the tip.
>>>>NO ,the phony guy your peddling to help out the Obama and the George Soros party.
I would love to respond; but I have no idea what you are talking about.
What phony guy? Who is helping Obama? And the Soros party funds McCain.
I need a map to follow you. Please provide one.
Pure, unadulterated fabricated character assassination by the Washington Compost. First of many.
If the Washington Post had even the slightest interest in the mental well being of political figures, it would examine glib sociopaths like Obama or Hillary, or psychopathic lunatics like Howard Dean or the “Reverend” Wright.
Do you know the date of that video?
Another little insight was his reaction to the death and destruction caused by the accident on the Forrestal. When he saw the damage, he said it gave him pause as to what he was a party to in bombing North Vietnam. He then volunteered to immediately go back into action.
Easy, they are dead. It is time to accept that.
“Atta girl auntie, stick to those principles and get back to me when a couple of flaming liberal communist are appointed to life time seats on the Supreme Court.”
You talking about McCain again, the admirer of Ruth Ginsberg?
Yes, he was all for her.
