Is Drudge supporting McCain? This article seems like a cheap shot to me, almost overly so. What would one expect a man who had been tortured to say? I am no fan of McCain by a long shot, but his statements about his barbaric captors will certainly not keep me from voting for him.
Same here. Of all the many valid reasons he can be attacked as a candidate, this is not one of them. I don’t give a ‘rats azz if he despises “gooks”, he had to take the torture from them, not me. He’s entitled to his hate if he still has it. How would we expect POWs from Japanese POW camps in WWII to feel about them?
I have major issues with McCain, but this isn’t one of them.

I can’t think of a better reason to disqualify him from the office of President of the United States.
The ‘Gooks’ are economic allies of the United States, and I would prefer to see us send manufactuing business to VietNam than to China.
By the way, does ‘Gook’ include all Asians? Just Charlie? The Japanese?
See how this gets messy?
I tend to agree with you. So why didn’t McCain say that? Why claim that Drudge was attacking his war record? The story says nothing about his war record, it’s about something he said in 2000.
