Please, I'm NOT insulting McCain's service to our country. He IS a hero and I respect him for that. But... I think his survival skill were defined over 7 years as a POW and these traits manifest themselves when he is under stress.

Again, no disrespect intended to McCain. He is a war hero.

I know that, no worries there. After thinking for a moment, I understood that your post was not an insult, and I agree with what you just wrote. It makes sense.

Crap. No disrespect to you, but a hell of a lot of better men died performing much more heroic deeds and do not have the label of 'heroes.' He was unfortunate to get shot down while performing his duty. He was fortunate to be the son of an Admiral and survived prison for seven years. He didn't risk his life saving another, others saved him.

April is absolutely correct, he was irrevocably changed by his prison experience. He is not suited to lead but ran as a'hero' and got in. Look at the damage he has done to his country since he was released. I'm sorry, but my bile rises when I hear him referred to as a 'hero' and this time it ran over. His is a POS sorry-ass American apologist who doesn't wash his hands before leaving the bathroom.

You may have intended no disrespect... but your comment was very disrespectful of his service and sacrfice.

Posting on an internet site does not qualify you to demean a man who endured horrific torture at the hands of the enemy.
