Dear Lydia,

re:
“If you can stand being held a prisoner in VietNam, a little insult from Donald Trump should be easy.”

And have the decency to NOT label those of us, ‘crazies’, or as he had, ‘wackobirds’.

I like Trump. I am a milvet, and have watched mcCain, again and again, put that dagger in my back.

If one reads McStain’s actual service record, the guy was trouble! How many planes did he lose? 4? A lot of controversy about the Forrestal fire which killed 134 men? Hot dogging it in Spain, flying under power lines and cutting off power to thousands of people? Constant disciplinary problems?

War Hero turned Politician brings men like Dwight D. Eisenhower to mind.

Not Juan.

So what’s the problem? Didn’t the Progressive Socialist Left excoriate McCain with the same line. Didn’t they claim that being captured was no big deal and that he sold out to the VC by telling them secret information.

So where does the Left now excoriate virtually the same words that were used by Al Franken...

Trump proving to have bigger balls than all of the GOPe and a sad number of conservatives.

Cruz/Trump: Real men for a real recovery.

“””The comments drew swift and biting condemnation from his fellow candidates and some veterans groups”””


I noted they used the phrase “some veterans groups”.

Exactly who are these “some veterans groups”.?

Are there other veterans groups who approved of Trump taking on McCain?

There is a lot of half-truths being said by the media.

“I have tremendous respect for McCain but I don’t buy the war hero thing. Anybody can be captured. I thought the idea was to capture them. As far as I’m concerned he sat out the war.”

Nope. Not Donald Trump. Al Franken.

Love Trump more than ever. Of course, he can’t mention the entire truth about the media-invented fake “hero’s” treachery, from his 32 V.C. propaganda films to his betrayal of POW/MIA families, to his immigration lies, to his embrace of Muslim radicals. But if Trump keeps going like this, McStain could be in big trouble next fall in AZ.

The same media that mocked Sen McCain for his arm range of motion are now suddenly his greatest supporters.

Their target is always what they perceive as the far right available target. Cruz, Walker, and Trump are in the crosshairs. Sen McCain, being left of those on the current headline issues, is now protected.

When he was running for pres, and there for the far right target in comparison to Obama, he was an idiot, not a real hero, and not to be trusted.

Bye bye Trump. You and your phoney conservatism need a vacation back in NYC. Maybe you can have a nice dinner with your pal Hillary.

Exactly, who are these "some veterans groups"?

There is a veterans group called "Veterans For Peace". They are hardcore communist. They are at all the communist organized "peace" rallies. I put 'peace' in quotes because the organizers are anything but "peaceful", or "anti-war". They've never met a leftist uprising or bloody communist revolution they didn't fully support. They worship mass murderers like Mao tse-Tung.

I couldn’t see the big deal. Lumptz is on a mission. FOX always allows him to bring in a bunch of so called independent types in a focus group. Then Lumptz “leads” them to the wanted conclusion.

McCain has been calling conservatives nasty names for a long time now. He never apologizes.

My hubby is a vet. McCain has called him all kinds of names like “crazies”, hobbits, and whackobirds.

He deserves no respect because he gives no repect.

McInsane called anyone agreeing with Trump on illegal aliens “crazies”. Seems McInsane owes We the People an apology.

The articles agreeing with Trump libeling McCain’s service are on sites like antiwar.com (as posted in this thread), veteranstoday.com (foreign terrorist and neo-Nazi influences), infowars.com and other infamous publications.

Go ahead. Dig that hole. Millions of sane veterans and their loved ones are watching.
