I don’t give a rat’s a$$ what did or did not happen to John McCain as a POW. His behavior, and actions as a civilian, and Senator speak far more for the character of John McCain than what occurred behind the walls of a POW camp. I can’t Judge him for his actions in North Vietnam, but I can certainly judge him as a U.S. Senator, and in that position, he has been sorely lacking for a very long time. He’s been nothing but a self-serving bastard from the beginning of his far too-long political career. Leopards don’t change their spots. The seeds of McCain’s bitterness and selfishness were sowed long before he ever crashed his jet. He had the choice to do something good with his war experiences. He chose poorly.
We are in complete agreement, then. I stated he was a lousy politician.
