Why does the Right make a guy who did nothing to save any lives of his fellow soldier, A war Her?

Question

Will you vote for a guy who aided the Enemies of America?

I'm talking about a Guy who has made more then 30 video's for a Enemy Campaign of Propaganda?

PS, I Did Serve my Country.

You don't know Me or what I've lived through.

I choose Not to Brag about it.

And if you are going too,

What does that say about your Heart and Your Patriotism?

(Yahoo doesn't like this site, I wonder why?)

Answer 1

He achieved Hero status because he was a POW. He made those video's as a POW. You choose not to brag about your service, but you expect McCain to brag about events he'd rather forget. I don't believe he has what it takes to be president, but not on the basis of his military service. He is a hero, just to have returned from such an ordeal. But He's too old, been through too much, and too easily manipulated, to be president. As a young Pilot he was a "hot dog", prone to risky displays of carelessness. In my opinion, not presidential material, but he has as much right to be proud of his service to this country as you do.

Answer 2

Actually, the Right trashed him up side and down the other after McCain/Feingold was passed.  The 2000 campaign brought more venom from the Right.  As GOP primary voters gave him the nod, the Right has had to embrace him, however reluctantly.  His campaign staff have framed his bio to reflect the image you refer to.  I applaud your effort to illuminate his past, and respect the time you served in the service.  Those who vote for McCain do so for reasons other than his war record.

Answer 3

And you know this because you read it on the vietnamveteransagainstjohnmccain website?

Well, I too am a Viet Nam vet, 1968-69, and I can tell you that I can't even begin to imagine what McCain experienced in the 5 years he spend as a prisoner in North Viet Nam.

You were not there - and regardless of your own alleged experiences, you have no basis in fact to base your allegations concerning McCain's military record.

Answer 4

It's not that Yahoo doesn't like the site -  you have to put http:// in front of the site address for them to link it...

But yeah, My Dad is more of a Vietnam "Hero" than McCain... and he's voting for Obama.

Answer 5

If you had really served, you would have realized that everyone has a breaking point. And when pushed to the brink of suicide, that's your point.

Try to figure out how I know you weren't military.

Answer 6

Look at the other choice... Obama? Come on...

Answer 7

just continue spreading hate and lies - i pity you!

Answer 8

McCain was given the oppurtunity to go home because he was the son of a Admiral but decided that he wanted to stay with his fellow soldiers. I beleive that in voting for McCain that I'm voting for a patriot who did a great service for this country on many levels.  

Answer 9

i wont even answer that question, its bull!
