Turned his back?

When did McCain turn his back? The NVA attempted to give McCain and early release once it was announced that his father was named Adm. John McCain Jr. was named Commander-In-Chief Pacific Fleet. McCain refused to leave his captive comrades.

Do your homework before posting to keep from looking foolish.


(...this is so off base they have me defending a Republican)

Get off you high horse. The men held with mccain were every bit as deserving of the title hero. If you did you your own homework you would know that the enemy got info from McCain.

Well, one things for sure. Trump sucked all the air out of the republican tent once again. Thirteen Republican candidates were interviewed by the press and the only point that got on the news was Trump's McCain comments and their reactions. He's taken the entire party off message. Sorta like Ted Cruz shutting down the government, Trump has effectively shut down the Republican party.

Do your Homework, PAL!!
Maybe we should reserve a spot in Hanoi for all those that think being a POW is a piece of cake.

McCain's marital issues are a whole different story.

Of course, the Donald's marital track record ain't all that great either.

Should we talk about that?

Eh...The Donald never tried to hide his marital track record. Did McCain ever address his own marital track record?

Its like when people say any soldier fighting overseas is "fighting for our freedom." YOu are only fighting for our freedom if our country is being attacked and trying to be overthrown by a foreign army waiting to literally take over our country and impose their political system and laws on us.
What?

I thought Republicans were so pro-military.

Obviously they don't give one crap about POW's. Goodness, anyone that gets captured and survives is a LOSER.

Talk about political suicide.

Maybe ya'll should vacay in Hanoi and see how you like it.

According to Mike Huckabee : "Every breath I breathe and every step I take is free because of brave Americans like John McCain."...REALLY? Isnt that just over-stretching it just a tad, Mike. Its BS statements like these that the majority of people are truly sick of because, they just WREAK of PC bull**** & hes just smearing on the BS icing for the media. Like he actually gives a **** about John Mccain.

The exact same thing can be said for Rick Perry as well. "DonaldTrump's comments today make him unfit to be Commander-in-Chief." Well gee, Rick. How is it exactly "FIT" that the rest of our "leaders" & lawmakers continuously sell our country's interests out to the highest bidder every single day, while all of you bast**** line your pockets w/ endless piles of $$$$? Thats "fit"? Funny how that never gets mentioned.

Its all nothing but a PC dog & pony show for all these candidates & the media.

I hate McCain as much as McCain hates conservatives.

Screw him.

Trump is right on McCain. McCain is not immune to attacks, since he attacks everyone he chooses. No one lives in a glass house.
