As you wish -

stockpirate (post 58): “It is about issues not where he had lunch in 1968.”

Do you actually believe it appropriate to refer to the indiscribable suffering that American POW’s went through in the torture chambers of the Hao Lo Prison (Hanoi Hilton) as “where (they) had lunch in 1968?”

That is a very quaint way of putting it.

McCain, incidentally, was imprisoned, mostly in Hao Lo, from 1967 through 1973.

In regard to your query: I have no connection with the McCain camp (as if that would have any bearing on the worth of my words). I will work for him and other Republicans in my locale. I consider that an honor - as will many, many others.

What you posted does not in any way shape or form denigrate our vets or current servicemen.

McCain himself has used humor to refer to time as a POW, when speaking about Woodstock he said he was all tied up at the time.

So perhaps using your own logic should should write to McCain and ask him why he denigrates our vets who served.
