4. Wow, the things he says |
|
So what, that's the circumstances it takes, in his mind, to get someone to love their country?
Wow.
So all of us who have never been in war or POWs who love our country -- what's wrong with us?
Sheesh

...the operators who go through the late Nick Rowe's SERE (Survival Escape Resistance and Evasion) and RTL (Resistance Training Laboratory) courses do not "fall in love with their country." They are taught to survive as best as possible using techniques that compartmentalizes everything except the need to survive.
That "fall in love" line is pure bullshit.

8. Naw, he just had a crush. |
|
It wasn't until he couldn't have her anymore that he had true and deep feelings.
For the first time in his life, he really loved his country.

11. I have to wonder if McCain didn't go a POW too far. |
|
There's gotta be a saturation point.

12. JHC..!!! Excellent point to run with. |
|
So McCain was resentful of the education that he was provided with public funds? He *did* have a tough, oppressed life, so it's understandable.

So he's allowed to get away with implying that he hasn't always loved his country.
