11B 9 years. An your military background is what?

That McCain was a hero in 40 years ago in Viet Nam change nothing at all about his political record for the last decade.

Screaming shrilly like you are doing does not change the facts that McCain had nothing at all to do with The Surge. That McCain was the father of the Baker Commission and that plan to run away from Iraq in 2007.

The facts of McCain's record do not change just because you find them uncomfortable.

You are right on McCain. Plus name the last Academy graduate that became President.

"11B 9 years. An your military background is what?"

28 years in the Marine Corps, including 18 months in combat in Vietnam, then 7 months in the hospital recovering from wounds. I do appreciate your service in the Army and apologize for implying that you did not serve. You obviously did.

"That McCain was a hero in 40 years ago in Viet Nam change nothing at all about his political record for the last decade."

It's good that 40 years is your limit for honoring heroes that suffered for their country. Nice to know that's all it counts for.

John McCain stayed in the service of his country through the Congress, when many others just went out and made money for themselves - but you know enough to be disrespectful...

Meanwhile our choices are Barry Obama and his choices for the Supreme Court and guns and abortion, etc.. or to back John McCain and work with him to try to stave off the tide.

If you attack the only candidate that actually served and suffered for his country, how useful is that?
