31. I'd Like To Know More As Well
I first heard about this incident back in 2000 and then saw the video (with McCain being pointed out as he ran from his jet).

It'd be interesting if there was some official documentation or if anyone will step forward to give a first-hand account. Generally, I'm dubious about these things as well and would love to have solid paperwork in hand...as I'm sure many others would.

That said, remember that this is not a trial where dealing with here, but politics. As we saw with John Kerry, his service was easily distorted and we also saw by Kerry's poor response how it grabbed hold and hurt his campaign. I mention 2000 since I am sure the origins of this story, if it is a story rather than truth, probably came out of the rove machine.

Unfortunately, as we saw with the current "pResident", military records can vanish or get doctored for political expediency. I look forward to seeing what you find out.

Cheers...
