I don’t think we should attack or question McCains time as a POW......the man endured horrible torture.....his politics are fair game....but not his time as a POW.

I agree. As a fellow Vietnam Vet, I respect McCain for his service and his time as a POW. But I don’t agree with him on most of his political views, other than that he’s strong on the WOT.

Agreed! I am completely anti-McAmnesty, but his experience being tortured in a Vietnamese jail makes his military record as a patriot unassailable.

Personally I wouldnt mind having McCain as Secretary of Defense, but as President he would be a disaster to the conservative movement.

There is plenty to attack McCain on, without resorting to disrespectful attacks on a war hero. Lets be respectful and show that we have more class than Kos Kidz.
