“Why are you defending the SongBird?”
As I already wrote, “There are a TON of reasons to hate McCain. No reason to make up false stories.”
This “Songbird” crap seems to have first appeared nearly over 30 years after he got back from being a prisoner. Conservatives are supposed to care about the truth. McCain undoubtedly suffered hell while a POW. He probably has it in his future although only One gets to judge that. He did plenty of things to despise him for, from Keating 5 to lying repeatedly to voters in Arizona to betraying his country AS A POLITICIAN to wanting to get us into wars all over the globe.
But...truth is important. As a young LT, I met a few Vietnam POWs. What they went thru was obscene, and there is no reason to believe McCain got a free pass. Far to many eyewitnesses say otherwise.
Exactly, why do you suppose that is, because far too many say he was a SongBird.
With two admirals in the family reports can say anything and medals can be awarded. My Brother-in-law (now deceased) survived Bataan and he didn't get a silver star, maybe because his dad and grandfather were not generals.
