#4 To Hell with John McCain. If you need a man to be a pillar of command and leadership in a highly adversarial POW situation, Bingo! The only thing is he went on to many other things over the course of many, many years. He may not have originated vindictive pettiness, but he sure added some chapters uniquely his own.

#6 Ref #4: To Hell with John McCain.

I have no first-hand knowledge, but that particular task may have already been accomplished.

#7 While the act in June was apolitical, this delayed Democratic response in an attempt to spring yet another October Surprise reeks of desperation. Private Democratic presidential polling must be dreadful.

#8 #4 To Hell with John McCain. If you need a man to be a pillar of command and leadership in a highly adversarial POW situation,

There's even some debate about that.

Not that I think I would done any better in those circumstances.

Then again, I wouldn't have tried to launch a political career out of it and then betrayed my constituents over and over again, while claiming that my experiences in the "Nam exempted me from all criticism.

#10 I recall stories of McCain 'dating' the wives of fellow pilots while they were deployed. Probably not true but if so i hope he's uncomfortably hot right now.
