From your article:

“Although McCain suggested in his autobiography that months passed between his divorce and remarriage, the divorce was granted April 2, 1980, and he wed Hensley in a private ceremony five weeks later. McCain obtained an Arizona marriage license on March 6, 1980, while still legally married to his first wife.”

Thanks for the link.

Your Forrestal story is utter BS. It’s been debunked so many times that there is no excuse for your repeating that BS story anymore.

AND !!——— Who was Jeremiah Denton ???

Yes, and according to the LameStreamMedia, who are anti-Vietnam war, you would never know that there were a whole slew of real heroes who spent time not in the lap of luxury waiting to be released from a prisoner of war camp like McStain, but guys who suffered greatly while living in squalid conditions.

Not because he physically abused her but because of his known affairs while they were still married. I’ve never heard of any other types of abuse, and I did plenty of research during the 2008 primaries.

No it doesn’t. There is a fireman who prophesied that Donald Trump would become president. It is called Trump Prophecy by Mark Taylor. He stated that President Trump is fulfilling God’s agenda for this nation. However, ANYONE who tries or blocks the president’s agenda will be removed to the side OR will be eradicated from this Earth. For the president’s agenda is also God’s agenda.

From the onset of his campaign we have witnessed those just remove like in the campaign race, moguls remove from Hollywood, etc, now McCain.

Stick to basic facts that are clearly provable.

The “Songbird” stuff is not provable. Plenty of fellow Hanoi Hilton ‘inmates’ have spoken very favorably and credibly of McCain’s experience in the Hanoi Hilton, and the stories that claim he was a ‘songbird’ have the same credibility as those claiming that McCain was the one responsible for the fire on the Forrestal (which is to say...zero credibility.)

Consider that J.F.Kerry had the vast majority of his fellow ‘Swift Boat Veterans’ - come out AGAINST Kerry. OTOH - the vast majority of McCain’s fellow sailors and aviators are supportive of his service. To me - both are telling...Kerry’s service was shameful (because of all the lies he told...both to get 3 band-aid Purple Hearts as well to get out - and all the lies he told when part of the traitorous group “Winter Soldier”.) Nothing that McCain did in the Naval service approaches Kerry’s betrayals of the integrity of those serving.

I’ll just note that I think Juan generated a lot of Bad Karma over the years.

"Is it correct that McCain admitted publically that his captor's torture and treatment broke him?"

He spent 2008 kowtowing to that shuck'n'jive every chance he could, does that answer your question?

Of course they broke his ass.

McCain's fake primary 'comeback' in 2008 was Part B of the Part A, which was "Hey we have the perfect Manchu candidate" in Bobo, and Cankles be literally damned.

When Cankles said on Election Night, "I knew they wouldn't let me win.", she wasn't talking about deplorables. Not. Even. Close.

"More than 20 aircraft were destroyed."

That would make McJuan a 5x "Ace".

"He could function when on duty, but that was about it. I was just a Captain then, but I knew that he was not capable of performing as a Lieutenant Colonel. The Army should have medically retired him, but he had no other life so he was allowed to stay on active duty until he had a massive stroke."

Did LC run for Senate? Did he throw a Presidential election to a Manchurian candidate?

No, and no.

The Lord will reward you 10 x 10 (above and beyond my personal thank you for Navy, sir!) if you brought the LC in for a soft landing.

But McCrisis scratched his perpetual itch against "The Admiral" by taking it out on the United States first, and the women in his life second - unforgivable.

To this article, add another, regarding his abandonment of fellow POW’s and abuse of their families, and get a good glimpse of the abusive, narcissistic, sociopathic creep that was mccain:

Isn’t it amazing how the MSM have been obsessed with Trump’s indiscretions, but not McCain’s.

I despise McCain, but you are not correct.

You can google the official report and see where on the flight deck his plane was located.

Where it was located, a wet start might have scared a seagull, but it would never hurt anything.

The wet start story is BS.

You have most of the story correct, but not all.

Carole Shepp McCain was John’s first wife and he was her second husband, having previously been married to a USNA classmate. That marriage produced two sons, Douglas and Andrew, which John formally adopted and together he and Carole had one daughter, Sidney.

While McCain was imprisoned Carole was in a horrid automobile accident which, as you correctly noted, left her disfigured and several inches shorter. Not wanting to add to John’s worries, she and his parents did not inform him of her accident, so upon his release he came home to a different looking Carole.

Carole would later remark that “John was 40 and looking to be 25 again.”

I don’t know if anyone else caught this, but big mouth Joe Biden let it slip during his eulogy that he played a yuge part in facilitating the meeting of McCain and Cindy, when he said (to Cindy remember, I was with Jill) and I said, “John, go talk to her..!” McCain was the military laison for the US Senate and he was accompanying Biden in Hawaii at that function where Cindy and her parents happened to be! Biden KNEW John was a married man!

If you receive HBO, it produced a special titled “John McCain, For Whom The Bell Tolls. It’s all one-sided, (he’s the hero) but Carole’s two sons and Carole herself are featured and the sons speak about the hurt they endured over Cindy and the quick remarriage. Sidney also appears.

Carole and John managed to overcome all the bitterness and became very good friends. I think they talked by telephone very often and I think she was at the private services today at USNA.

I have my own opinion of McCain. My husband was a classmate and personal friend of his back then so he knew him quite well. They were both 17 when they first met.
