McCain’s POW Story

This is a fascinating read if you haven’t read it before.

It’s pathetic of people like Westley Clark to try to dismiss McCain’s military experience when he promoted Viet Cong groupie John Kerry a couple years ago for president. Kerry spent a lot of time bashing the US and accusing them of war crimes duringt the Vietnam war. He promoted fake soliders who told fake stories about government atrocities.  All from the comfort of the US. John McCain experienced the real war crimes of the Vietnamese POW prison guards. For six years.

Whether or not McCain would make a good president is a separate issue. But he certainly does not deserve some of the flack he has gotten from some quarters about his military service. Unlike Kerry, he didn’t try to get out at the first opportunity or turn into mouthpiece for our enemies at the time.
