“I hear John McCain was involved with the Keating Five, has a short fuse, a violent temper, and tells mean jokes.... favors amnesty for illegals, thinks restricting free speech is important, yadda yadda yadda, this guy has gotten too many free passes already.”
Let’s not forget the McCain/Kerry handling of the POW/MIA issue. I won’t.
When John Kerry’s Courage Went M.I.A.
Senator covered up evidence of P.O.W.’s left behind

Senator John Kerry, a decorated battle veteran, was courageous as a navy lieutenant in the Vietnam War. But he was not so courageous more than two decades later, when he covered up voluminous evidence that a significant number of live American prisoners—perhaps hundreds—were never acknowledged or returned after the war-ending treaty was signed in January 1973.
The Massachusetts senator, now seeking the presidency, carried out this subterfuge a little over a decade ago— shredding documents, suppressing testimony, and sanitizing the committee’s final report—when he was chairman of the Senate Select Committee on P.O.W./ M.I.A. Affairs.
