The fact is McCain is a humble hero who is reticent to bring up being a POW.... |
|
And he'll be the first person to tell you that. Over and over and over. While making a television appearance. Or being interviewed in a documentary on Vietnam. Or shilling one of his ghost-written books on the subject. Or while answering a question about economics in a GOP debate. Or to deflect criticism. Or just in general whether it remotely pertains to the situation or not.
But other than that, he prefers not to bring up his heroism. And how honorable he is.. and magnificent. And how he knows how to win wars... because he's seen war. And that he knows health care, because he was given inadequate health care by another government. In Vietnam... which, of course, is a war he is tired of refighting. So he never brings it up. Yeah.. that's the ticket. Of course, for over 5 years he couldn't get a ticket, because well.. you know.
