Question

Answer 1

Sure he is.............just ask those that served with him in the POW camp.

Are you serious?

Just because the one who did the torturing of him just came out and said that he never did anything to harm Senator McCain or any other POW you really believe him?

This is like saying that Hitler was a saint and never caused the problems in WW2.

Answer 2

I doubt it.

But I don't like how McCain went from saying he would not support repeal of Roe v. Wade to saying the exact opposite.

McCain went from saying g*y marriage should be allowed, to saying g*y marriage shouldn’t be allowed.

McCain criticized TV preacher Jerry Falwell as “an agent of intolerance” in 2002, but then decided to cozy up to the man who said Americans “deserved” the 9/11 attacks.

McCain used to oppose Bush’s tax cuts for the very wealthy, but he reversed course in February.

Answer 3

OUR, NOW FRIENDS,  THE VIETNAMESE WERE HIGHLY SKILLED IN THEIR BARBAROUS TREATMENT OF CAPTURED US AND OUR ALLIES. THEY LEARNED A LOT FROM THEIR CHINESE AND KOREAN NEIGHBORS. I'M JUST WONDERING IF OUR WANDERING DOWN THE SAME PATH WILL SERVE US WELL.

Answer 4

don't know but he is lying about that cancer on his face

Answer 5

As another example, consider Obama's  stirring tale for the Selma audience about how he had been conceived by his parents, Barack Obama Sr. and Ann Dunham, because they had been inspired by the fervor following the "Bloody Sunday" voting rights demonstration that was commemorated March 4.  "There was something stirring across the country because of what happened in Selma, Alabama," he said, "because some folks are willing to march across a bridge.  So they got together and Barack Obama Jr. was born.  So don't tell me I don't have a claim on Selma, Alabama.  Don't tell me I'm not coming home to Selma, Alabama"

Obama was born in 1961, and the Selma march occurred four years later, in 1965.  The New York Times reported that when the senator was asked about the discrepancy later that day, he clarified: "I meant the whole civil rights movement."
