Ummm, why do the idiots on the right go to people like McCain

[hyphenate]

for any kind of military expertise, anyhow? I think it's ridiculous to go to a guy who spent most of his time in Vietnam in a POW camp. That's like asking GWB to explain how the Blue Angels learn all those fancy moves.

1. And don't forget when he was crashing all those jets

and why is his debriefing when he got back still classified????????????????

2. Members of the beltway media just LOVE mccain

David Border of the Washington Post for one has produced any number of columns, probably dozens, that amount to nothing more than in-print blow jobs.

I can't see where the guy EVER amounted to a bucket of warm piss, but for some reason, probably laziness, these hacks seized on the "maverick" thing years ago, and still are laboring under the delusion that mccain was always a maverick, let alone is still one after his disgusting whoring of the past few years.

3. Actually, freepers can't stand him

from what I can tell. He's too liberal. :eyes:

4. Probably because he's been around since Christ was a sergeant.

He's as old as the pyramids.

5. 'Cuz John's a maverick.
