McCain was tortured, but he did cooperate with the North Vietnamese.
The only thing the bravest man in the world wants when experiencing severe pain is an end to the pain.
I’m no McCain fan, but I remember reading that the communists tried to get him to take an early release, over others who had been there longer, but he refused knowing they would use it for propaganda, admiral’s son you know..
I tried to explain this in 2008 to some co-workers, black secretaries, strong Obama supporters, asking if they didn’t see any nobility in it.
They replied—and honestly, I’m afraid—that they thought he was “stupid” for turning the offer down.
Let’s not be as dumb as Obama supporters.
Having admitted that, now let me say—McCain has been a dripping, stinky douchebagge for 40 years.
That is what I have read too. McCain did cooperate with the North Vietnamese. The descriptive word “weasel” comes to mind and defines McCain’s character. He is Obama’s counterpart and might be just as corrupt.
