I can handle Ted taking the high ground but not saying he agrees with McCain 100 percent.

My critique of John McCain would begin at the end of his military career. McCain came back from being a POW to being a liaison officer with Congress. McCain helped the Navy to sell the defense contractor products it wanted to Congress.

This whetted John McCain’s appetite for a political career and McCain made it to the House and Senate. McCain’s tough guy talk on intervention all over the world is linked to those defense contractor ties he still has.

Another source of $$$$$ for John McCain have been the media companies. We’ve all noticed over the years how McCain has been puffed and promoted by the media.

That’s because John McCain has either chaired or been ranking Republican on Senate committees that oversee the Federal Communications Commission and media regulation.

Yep! When he ran for President in 2000, McCain chaired the Commerce Committee.

And, at one point, he admitted he still didn't now how business worked...
