I am most suspect of McCain's values. Captian McCain was a brave warrior but unfortunately a piss poor pilot by naval standards. Anyone that can land a jet on a carrier at night is a good pilot. That alone does not make him a superior naval pilot. He acquitted himself with honor in captivity though many say no. The North Vietnamese broke him as they did with almost all the pilots. Due to the fact that McCain's father was the commander of CINPAC his son was singled out for particularly brutal torture. His father was the commander that launched Naval Aircraft against North Vietnam including the aircraft piloted by his son John. Captain McCain is a man to be honored.
Senator McCain is a man to be held in total contempt! As a Senator the words of description should be perfidy, arrogance, and vicious ego.
ps The Navy should have never put John McCain in battle against North Vietnam as he was a very high value captive as the son of the CINPAC commander.
Well stated
