Did InSane ever get that tumor removed from his head?? Let him run for VP. We'll take out two Nam War "heroes" with one election. Between the two of them it will sound like rocks rattling in a coffee can!!

You know, I happened to remember--
Aren't McVain and Kerry both heiress-shoppers?
When McVain came back from Vietnam, he dumped his wife because she was handicapped and had gained weight.
He married a younger, slim, healthy blonde with plentiful money from her rich daddy--was he a beer distributor?. Daddy then bankrolled McVain's Arizona campaign for Senate. McVain is not western, but from Mississippi.
Do I have McVain's history right?--would appreciate comment...
To: Mamzelle
I'm not an Arizonan or an expert on McCain-iography. However, I do believe it's true he divorced his first wife and married a wealthy beer distributor's daughter. Perhaps some more knowledgeable FReepers can fill in the remaining details.
To: unsycophant
I will be the first to admit that McCain ought to shut his damned mouth, and that only his gigantic ego and hatred for Bush is propelling this nonsense.
Having said that, his stupid remarks do offer some advantages:
1. It lulls the RATS and the media into thinking that Kerry isn't weak on defense, and that our television ads won't trump any innoculation that Kerry can try to use with McCain. It won't wash. Ads will always work over Kerry hiding under John McCain's skirt.
2. McCain can be told, if he doesn't shut his damned mouth, no speaking role at the convention. None. Enough is enough. No national platform. Period. We don't need him.
3. It may be that we can sacrifice McCain's Senate seat and still hold the majority. This is going to really start angering the GOP apparatus in AZ. McCain's re-election is likely, but not a guarantee.

barf city!!! Salon.com's Sidney Blumenthal on FOXNews . Up against a geezer Malek, who was director of republican convention way back in 1988.
Malek does a credible job listing out Kerry's flips and flops on defense.
Blumenthal says people haven't paid attention that Kerry asked new Spainish Prime Minister not to withdraw his troops in Iraq. Blumenthal belittles the importance of Cheney's attacks on Kerry, Blumenthal says Cheney is very unpopular, polarizing figure, not trusted, and what he says about Kerry is simply not true. (Take that you silly savage!!!)

I'm pretty sure that it was on Hannity's show that McCain stated that Kerry's anti-war activities were used to taunt him while he was imprisoned in the Hanoi Hilton. New Max even picked it up, I think. We need to find the tape of that show and run it over and over, until the Democrats get the idea. Every time McCain opens his mouth for Kerry, play the tape.

McCain's constituants in Mesa, AZ (Where the Apache is made) is going to be thrilled with that answer. Once again, McCain looks after himself rather than the people of Arizona.

"He may have even been the one that released his ordnance on the deck of the Forestal." Actually, it was his aircraft and it was his ordinance. Wait, were you being sarcastic/rhetorical?

Somebody please explain to me how our defense wouldn't be weakened without the F-14, F-15, B-1, B-2, Tomahawk Cruise Missile, M-1 Abrams, Apache Helicopter, 12 different pay raises for the military over 20 years ...
More than I can remember, really.

A Senator covets power, over conviction? McCain has cut his throat as far as credibility with me is concerned.

McCain is still smarting from Bush's defeat of him,I see.He is an egomaniac.
He was also on the POW/MIA Senate select committee with Kerry. The resolution of the conflict over this angered many vets and families of those missing.Kerry was chairman and Mc Cain allied himself with Kerry in the agreement with Vietnam.(91/92)

To: T.Smith
Actually, it was his aircraft and it was his ordinance. The way I understood it to happen is that a missile was loosed from another aircraft and McCain's aircraft was hit by it as he sat in the cockpit prepping for flight ops.
If his aircraft was the one that precipitated the whole chain of events...I didn't know that....but I thought I had it right.

I was reading the Jan/Feb issue of Shipmate and there was a picture of Chuck Larson, Wes Clark (USMA) and John Dalton, yukking it up at some alumni party.My husband was in McCain's USNA graduating class of '58 along with Chuck Larson. Poindexter was valedictorian. Up until his now defunct presidential run, Weasley Clark was not a democrat.
Yukking it up at an alumni party with classmates and other academy grads is common place. They're a "brotherhood."

I just have one question... Where was McCain when all of the Dems were blasting Bush for 2 years with LIE after LIE after LIE after LIE (to borrow Killer Chappaquidick Ted's comments)? Why didn't we see him all over the news programs then? I almost wish he'd switch sides (officially) already!
