We owe him a great deal of respect. We are very lucky to have candidates of his calibre in America! Because he had a PRIVILEGED Admiral father in the service.. His poor scores in pilot's school... 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 |
