He dis-obeyed commands about his mission... Leading him to be shot down..... Loosing a multi-million $$$ aircraft....(beside the other three) breaking under 5 years of torture and brainwashing... being "nuts" as described by his own party in 2000 Any other servicemen would not have made it past flight school much less not be court-marshaled for loosing 4 Aircraft. It sure would be nice to be one of the privileged, then of course I'd vote for him as a hero! Let say you are 100% correct about what you wrote above. The guy still few a plane into hostile territory. The guy still got into a jet after bailing out 3 times. McCain is a war hero. He is also a person with poor judgement and impulse control. I don't like him, his policies, his judgement in general but the guy faced fire and kept on flying missions anyway until he was captured. Most people would skulk away somehow rather than do their duty as McCain has done. -- Telamon Ventura, California Telamon, You are trying to debate American Politics with someone who at best is an American who chooses to use a Foreign Newsgroup Server "albasani.net" origination out of "gmx.at" {Osterreich}. And at worst BP is a Foreigner : So BP's views and comments on American Politics simply do not matter to Americans who are the Only Ones with the real Right to Vote in American Elections. imho - bp - is just another foreign troll or want to be lackey international toad ~ RHF |

State side usenet newservers are now rare as republican'ts were unable to control their authors and post. Hopefully, warrant-less wiretaps and eves dropping will become a thing of the past once the republican'ts are removed from office and free speech in usenet groups is restored. Until then, I must use foreign news servers because just like health care and education, the united states has moved from the top of the list to somewhere much lower thanks to republican'ts. |

We Owe Respect to John McCain
No matter what your politics, John McCain is an American hero. Mcain was a P.O.W. Thats to bad. But it doesn't make him a hero. Telamon wrote: How about flying over enemy territory and getting shot down? Does that make him a hero? ....not when he was being a "maverick" and disobeying orders from his commanding officer. Maybe if he followed orders, he wouldn't have been shot down. |

As the highest-ranking POW and the son and grandson of US admirals, the Vietnamese offered to release McCain due to his extensive injuries. He declined and was actually tortured more for denying the North Vietnamese their propaganda coup. He has been quoted as saying he couldn't leave the other men behind. To this day, he can't lift his arms above his shoulders. I won't be voting for Senator McCain, but I'm not really going to allow you to demean this man's heroic courage. Shut up. |

I was particularly struck and humbled by the words of Charlie Cook in today's National Journal: "At this point, John McCain probably can't win without divine intervention. Say what you will about the campaign he has waged and the running mate he picked, but the collapse in credit markets and the stock market may very well have ended his chances of victory, notwithstanding anything he could have said or done differently. The senator from Arizona is a good man, who served his country admirably. And many would say that he deserved a better chance than he got." At the beginning and throughout this race McCain got the same "chance" the other candidates got. Whether he wins or not is dependent on what he does with the opportunity. No matter what your politics, John McCain is an American hero. He is no more of a hero than the other candidates who are running for president. Whether he was a POW 30 plus years ago has no bearing on the qualities needed to run this country. We owe him a great deal of respect. Just as we owe all of the candidates our respect. We are very lucky to have candidates of his calibre in America! Yes, I agree we have had several high caliber candidates in this race, including McCain and Obama. Mike, Louisville, KY |

Fighting corporate wars of opportunity is not defending my freedom in the least. I do not recognize blind obedience as a positive trait. I see the majority of our forces as tools of greed. If war is to end, the fighters must quit allowing themselves to be abused in this manner by "leaders" with questionable motives. Resist! |

Better McCane than the ChickenHawks who Lied us into another War; - Akin to attacking Mexico after Pearl Harbor - A war, Which has gone on longer than VietNam - Which is costing us Ten Billion Dollars A Month - Then again McCane voted with Bush all the way on Invading Iraq - Send him back to Arizona to lie in the sun |
