2. John "The Canary" McCain
Did he lie?  

He didn't lie to the North Vietnamese when he was giving away
military secrets during his captivity.

Yes, we can depend on Johnny Boy to squeal like a Canary
whenever there's a mic nearby.

McCain for Prez?

Better start digging that fallout shelter now.

4. Either John McCain is Stupid or He Assumes EVeryone Else is Dumber
Why lie about his experience..... how stupid can he be? Did he not think people would scrutinize his story, or think about what he was saying???

5. He just figured the media would go along with it...?
I'm inclined to call it simply, poor judgment.

6. I'm inclined to call it one of two things...
And both are very worrisome as traits of the potential next POTUS.

1: He is a lying POS (well, he pretty much is in any case)

2: He is losing his grip on what is real and what is not, confusing his own experiences with those he's read. So what happens if he wins, and starts to confuse his memories of the cold war with what's going on in the world now? Scary indeed.
