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.

No Slack, nada, none. Even if the prisoner stories are true, he has far out used them.

McCain and Bob Dole both need to be put out to pasture. Losers both in failed runs for the presidency, both banked on "war hero" status being their key to success. Bob Dole hopped on a grenade. I bet his buddies hold him in high regard. McCain rode his father's status around quite a bit, and sold out his fellow prisoners. I don't hold it against him that he broke under torture, but it doesn't make him a hero. At this point, he is an enemy of the President. That makes him my enemy too.

what he may, or may not have experienced in North Vietnam does not excuse his atrocious behavior since then. He does not get a free pass forever

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.

Hitler served with distinction in the German army. He doesn't get a pass for his sins and neither should McCain. He is conspiring with the progressive fascists toviolate the will of the American people as expressed in the 2016 election.

I can't stand the sumana bitch but do you believe that you wouldn't read that if you had a knife on your neck after they dislocated your shoulders? I give him a pass on this one.

McCain volunteered to stay a POW even though he was given the chance to go. Even a mental midget, given the NVA would give zero credibility to that video.

We owe that piece of garbage nothing more than a simple dose of euthanasia.
Please show us any benefit having that little Napolean in office has done anyone.
Also just love his little tag along Lindsey Graham, what a pair of douchebags.
All politicians are ego-maniacs; McLame & Graham give new meaning to the word. Under guise of being for the country, in reality, it's all about them & their importance........always has been, always will be. IMO, McLame is waaaaaaaaaay worse that Graham. MM

"not believed" so why are we to believe that he chose to stay? To many lies connected to him to believe anything except what we see now. Fug John M. trader SOB!

i live in his district i remember him when he moved here from virginia i remember him even as a congressman it is a protected district in that people will vote in the majority of a republican candidate over what ever demcratic scum is running against the republican. a lot of money, lot of old boy support, and noone has been an effective challenger in the primary. i had hope this last time around with a very good candidate running against him, but she couldn't quite make it. he has been an embarrassment for years. Kelly Ward WON the primary here in Cochise, Ron,...he's in no way popular hereabouts. GTC rumor has it kelly is going to go after flake, you can only hope and pray. I wish i could tell the story of mccain etc., it is an interesting one. I have no respect for him at all.

Works for me, and I hate the SOB as well.

No reason to support some old POW vet when we have a perfectly good, self made, hard working, patriotic, selfless, New Yorker who deserves our support and, indeed, our admiration. GD
