He went through 5 1/2 years in a hell hole prison in Viet Nam.
He was tortured daily and I'm pretty sure that 5 1/2years seemed like 500 years
I read his book about the time he spent there and it is scary as hell. And I'm sure it seemed like hell.
I dealt with him directly when I was with the Navy and he was very impressive but also very edgy, all of which is understandable.
I think we can justifiably give him some slack. We owe him big-time.

While nobody appreciate those that served more than I. McCain is long past his usefulness in the Senate. At least as long as he has a R next to his name. A Republican or a Conservative...he is not.
