The notion that the Presidency should be limited to people who have shown that they can withstand years of brutal torture as POWs without ever “breaking” in any way, is too ludicrous to warrant a response. Don’t dignify this idiot by wasting time formulating a response to his rantings.
Yet they rush to kiss the a** of terrorists from Gitmo because we put panties on their head.
I heard this too. The guy that called in admitted he was voting for O. This was a hit piece on McCain via Rush Limbaughs call in show. Rush handled him well....but this is just an example of the low scumbags the Dems will do.
It’s going to be a bumpy ride but I am hearing more and more that DEMS that normally vote absolutely, positively as it gets closer...are NOT going to vote for this radical, black, white hating wife, junior Senator. Not going to happen. That’s is why they are sending the message today on Fox from their surrogates......IF McCain at the last week of the campaign will show over and over the G*d D*mn America sermon of Jeremiah Wright and soundbyte of him talking about Obama being a politician......the DEMS will stay away adn absolutely NOT vote. I hear the rumblings...it’s going to happen.
Background:
The caller took the view that McCain was unworthy of office, having been broken by his captors in Vietnam. Was an open Obama supporter.
Pointed to McCain book and other McCain statements of giving info to captors.
Assuming the caller was on the level, his reasoning demonstrates that humans are capable of rationalizing anything, and pulling any fantasy out of actual reality.
Obama supporter who never "broke" while serving in Vietnam.
From the party that says we shouldn’t waterboard terrorists even if it saves American lives?
Puh-lease.
The left tortures school children worse than they allow terrorists to be tortured.
This was in McCain's acceptance speech.
I heard the same idiot claiming that McCain caved into torture. Rush related that a Navy SEAL told him that “you will give in under torture. Everyone has a limit.” Rush told that jerk that McCain endured torture that nobody could resist and gave up the name of his ship - but - when asked about who his fellow pilots were McCain gave them the defensive line of the Green Bay Packers.
Obama isn’t worthy of even being an American let alone president of our country .....
Somebody could “break” Obama or any of his supporters in a couple of days max, with just some household goods. Trust me. McCain was being handled by professionals and holding out as long as he did is nothing but testament to his superhuman level of will.
According to Little Dick Durbin, McCain went through nothing compared to the excruciating and intolerable hell of turned up air conditioners that the prisoners are subjected to by our sadistic guards at Gitmo.
The real thing was this was a stupid sounding seminar caller. I've been listening on the net to Tom Marr in the morning. Yesterday he had a similar call. Tom gave him hell in such a classy way. I miss him in NY.
Sounds like it's just an Obama talking point, and Rush asked the man if he was planning to vote for Obama instead of McCain because of that. The man said he was, and Rush was just incredulous, because he pointed out that if he talked to any Special Forces guy or Navy Seal, they'd tell him that everybody breaks, and it only proves one thing; that TORTURE WORKS. Rush also pointed out that Obama wouldn't have been able to hold out for one day, compared to the weeks and months that John McCain endured. Rush also pointed out that Obama would be more dangerous for the country, because from the first day in office, he'd be handing the country over to Marxism and Socialism, willingly, without anyone torturing him to do it.
The same accusations have been leveled at McCain by people on this forum. It’s not just the liberals.
It only takes about 45 minutes to break the strongest man when being tortured. When I was in the service, many years ago, they told us to do anything we could to not talk. I understand that today, they tell them to go ahead and tell them anything. It won’t make any real difference because they’ll break you anyway.
Maybe Jason needs to get his rear end over to Vietnam and sit in a tiger cage for a couple of years, while undergoing daily beatings and shock torture?
If you want to see what they did to him, google ‘strappado’.
I thought all POWS broke. Am I missing something here?
I heard a caller on a local talk show mention this today. It must their talking point for the day.
