So you see it was the Commies after all. If they hadn't have tortured poor John McCain he would have come back OK and wouldn't have been unfaithful.

I don't know why everybody doesn't understand that. Seems perfectly reasonable to me...




OK, OK here's the :sarcasm:

11. Ever notice how "what one does in private" only became a non-issue
when Republicans started getting caught with their pants down?

4. The divorce rate among human beings is very high. Every one is a statistic.

6. I think he did but in a backhanded way. He did lie about his affair with Cindy.
His divorce papers prove he was still cohabiting with Carol while he was running around with Cindy. He changed the dates of their "dating" period to after his separation.

8. Sadly McCain's suffering as a POW colors and deeply affects many of his perceptions today
and it seems clear to this writer McNuts is itching to exact some revenge, is delusional in thinking the US could fund a 100-year occupation of Iraq considering the cost of just five+ years, in thinking the US could have won in Vietnam thus seeming to ignore/not caring about the millions of deaths already inflicted on the Viennese people on their own soil. I shan't ask God to help us should we the people vote for him in numbers sufficient to even make it a remote possibility the election could be stolen. :D
