Evidence shows Pappy sang like a Lark to his Captors, revealing information that probably got other Pilots killed.
Sorry, your hero is a figment of his own imagination.

Same folks that questioned John Kerry have done the same about McCain

What''s good for the goose

Was John McCain Brainwashed by his
North Vietnamese Captors
to Destroy this Nation?

Was McCain blackmailed?

Is Vietnam still holding something over his head?

Was McCain brainwashed?


By Dave Gibson on May 22, 2007.

It is amazing that a combat veteran who has claimed to be a conservative Senator is now leading the fight to reward with amnesty, the millions of Mexican and Central American criminals who have invaded our nation. While the betrayal of the American people on behalf of foreign invaders by Sen. John McCain may be puzzling to most, the former POW has a history betraying his fellow citizens in favor of a foreign enemy.

In 1992, NVA Col. Bui Tin, who interrogated McCain in the Hanoi Hilton, testified before the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs. He told the Senators (including McCain) that Soviet officers regularly interrogated and tortured American POW%u2019s. During a break in the proceedings, Sen. McCain and Col. Tin enjoyed a hug and exchanged the kind of longing looks that a man would usually share with his long-lost father, or perhaps in McCain%u2019s case...His comrade?

McCain and Buddy Phil Gramm

McCain Doesn''t Remember How Many Houses He Owns


Jul 10, 2008 ... McCain telling Americans how strong the economy is, including Phil Gramm, who said we%u2019re in a %u201Cmental recession%u201D


McCain: I%u2019m glad I deregulated Wall Street.

McCain is a strong proponent of free trade. He supports the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the existing General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) agreements, U.S. participation in the World Trade Organization

Regarding protectionism, in 2007 McCain said, "I''m a student of history. Every time the United States has become protectionist ... we''ve paid a very heavy price. The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Acts in the 1930s were direct contributors to World War II. It sounds like a lot of fun to bash China and others, but free trade has been the engine of our economy.

In 1999, McCain voted for the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act,

The deregulation bill loosened restrictions on the activities of banks, brokerage houses, and insurance companies.

Hey jerk, if you dont know I"ll tell you whats causing this financial meltdown: Foreign investors (Japanese,Chinese,Saudis,etc,etc) are withdrawing their money because they are afraid of A MARXIST/COMMUNIST candidate who"s promising to give it to the poor.

So it''s nothing to do with a massive debt bubble, created way before Obama was even part the national political landscape?

Obviously you do not understand that a proud man can forgive an competetent enemy, but at the same time, never have an ounce of respect for a lying coward. So all those who know what McCain did, have no respect for you.

Oh, no, this depression isn''t like the 1930s, but..

In the Big Rock Candy Mountains, you never change your socks
And little streams of alcohol come a-trickling down the rocks
The brakemen have to tip their hats and the railroad bulls are blind
There''s a lake of stew and of whiskey too
And you can paddle all around ''em in a big canoe
In the Big Rock Candy Mountains,

I''ll see you all this comin'' fall in the Big Rock Candy Mountains!

McCain same ole same ole




Gramm''s long been a handmaiden to Big Finance. In the 1990s, as chairman of the Senate banking committee, he routinely turned down Securities and Exchange Commission chairman Arthur Levitt''s requests for more money to police Wall Street; during this period, the sec''s workload shot up 80 percent, but its staff grew only 20 percent. Gramm also opposed an sec rule that would have prohibited accounting firms from getting too close to the companies they audited%u2014at one point, according to Levitt''s memoir, he warned the sec chairman that if the commission adopted the rule, its funding would be cut. And in 1999, Gramm pushed through a historic banking deregulation bill that decimated Depression-era firewalls between commercial banks, investment banks, insurance companies, and securities firms%u2014setting off a wave of merger mania.

Not one dime should be disbursed until we hear what Wall Street is going to do to fix itself. Where''s their genius plan? And what exactly is Obambi''s plan? Make a couple of more phone calls? While I''m at it, where was the press and the Dems who were supposed to be overseeing this the last couple of years? Everyone was asleep at the switch.

Exactly. Wars for Profit are the Foundation of the Ruling Elite''''s money manufacturing machine.
The blood spilled by the working class is not something they worry about. After all, their kids never have to attend, so it''''s all good....

26 combat missions in Vietnam are documented. Torture is documented, and you have the **** to sit there and tell me McCain is part of the rich aristocracy? I said **** because you certainly could never had any balls.

Keating54u - I''m a Democrat, but I also believe in telling the truth. McCain was found not guilty by the congressional committee.

Saw Whoopee Goldberg, Barbara Walters, and another black women today on TV with a young blond lady. The young blond would listen to the others praise Obama with an occasional Walters claim that the campaign was now a smear campaign. Then it came time for the young blond lady to speak her mind.....she wanted to defend McCain.
At once the other three talked all talked loudly and drowned her voice out. She never had a chance to express her opinion. That it democratic party democracy. Never let anyone who opposes your opinion have the opportunity to speak. Just like MNBC, CNN, CBS and the list goes on.

McCain Received $166,000 In Campaign Contributions from Charles Keating and his Associates.

McCain Used Keatings Private Planes on Nine Occasions

McCain Had Direct Financial Ties To Keating

When the story broke, McCain did nothing to help himself. ''You''re a liar,'' McCain said

when asked about the investments. He challenged reporters saying, ''It''s up to you to find that out, kids......

Dems are looking for this result in Iraq.

''What we still don''t understand is why you Americans
stopped the bombing of Hanoi . You had us on the ropes. If you had pressed us a little harder, just for another day or two, we were ready to surrender! It was the same at the battles of TET. You defeated us!
We knew it, and we thought you knew it.
But we were elated to notice your media was definitely
helping us. They were causing more disruption in
America than we could in the battlefields. We
were ready to surrender. You had won
