Sealed away ?...time to debunk some more NY Slimes BS....
Ask McCain how he felt about never yielding to his Communist captors in 7 years; ask what it felt like with two broken arms, a busted shoulder and a bayonet wound in the gut if he ever felt the ‘pain’ of war with no humane treatment whatsoever for over a month; ask him if he felt the ground shake as our B-52’s dropped tons of bombs on North Vietnam- if he ever felt the terror the North Vietnamese felt; ask why his face is misshapen because he was beaten by his captors..Ask him if he ever thought each day would be his last day on earth, if he ever felt sheer terror every single day, especially when confined in solitary..you know he did !
He felt the pain of war beyond what most soldiers in Vietnam ever felt...He suffered from real wounds, not from some self-inflicted wounds, and he did it in defense of democracy-so the South Vietnamese could have some years of freedom until the anti-war cowards in this country put an end to their hopes for freedom...
As for the bum who wrote this piece—Shame on him and on the NY Times for showing such a lack of sensitivity and decency for a man who helped defend their journalist’s freedoms..
The NY Times has no concept of shame. They still won't disavow Walter Duranty and his glowing descriptions of life under Stalin's Soviet rule in the Ukraine, while tens of millions were being systematically starved to death. Duranty knew the truth of what was going on, but refused to report it. And the times knew the truth as well, but decided to run Duranty's pieces instead.
