Just curious how was McCain able to salute on that new video just released. Thanks

Maybe the aging process has just made it harder and harder in conjunction with his injuries. The damage could have been degenerative.

Injuries get worse with age. Haven't you heard of all the NFL players who can't walk now, or have other physical problems?

Your question is along the lines of "How can those football players be injured now, I saw them playing football on some old game film."

Good question. Answer: with pain. McCain feels it is worth feeling a few seconds of pain to show respect to our troops.

Obama feels it is worth a few minutes of smirking pleasure to mock McCain and all disabled vets.

If you think about it, or try it, a salute requires virtually no shoulder movement...and the shoulders are the area of McCain's disability.

Maybe arthritis and other degenerative bone and muscle issues have set in over time. Kind of like those old football players who can barely walk after the pounding they took in the NFL. Seen Earl Campbell lately?
