Hoping McCain is a lone traitor / prostitute / whatever the heck he is.
Some excerpts from the article linked below:

"Senator John McCain once crashed a plane on the deck of an aircraft carrier due to reckless piloting of a fighter jet. He later was shot down over North Vietnam and, according to those who were also imprisoned in North Vietnam, spilled his guts and then received preferential treatment while in captivity. Once back in the U.S., he promptly dumped his wife who had remained faithful to him while he was incarcerated. McCain also blocked every attempt to locate MIA’s still imprisoned in Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam."



"John McCain was one of worst students in his naval class, who graduated from the Naval Academy 894th out of 899, but because he was the son of the great Rear Admiral John ‘Jack’ McCain II, he didn’t end up as a petty officer, or in charge of the mess hall. Instead his path was clear for advancement within that branch of the US military.

"It gets worse. Along the way to Hanoi, he crashed two Navy aircraft while piloting them, and a third plane was reported to have crashed through power lines in Spain while “dare devil clowning”. A fourth aircraft was also destroyed on the deck of the USS Forrestal aircraft carrier parked off the coast of North Vietnam. That deadly incident involved McCain’s and another aircraft, as part of a larger disastrous incident and fire that killed 134 sailors and injured many others.

"Details of what happened on the Forrestal differ somewhat depending on whose version of events you read, although McCain is said to have fled the ship by helicopter alongside a New York Times reporter to Saigon where he took a much-needed R & R, and did not even attend the memorial service of his fallen comrades in the days immediately following the tragic incident."




"McCain is also attached to one of the dirtiest financial scandals in US history, but incredibly, he was somehow let off the hook, in this case by the Senate Ethics committee. Wikipedia explains his role in the infamous ‘Keating Five’:

“McCain became enmeshed in a scandal during the 1980s as one of five United States Senators comprising the so-called Keating Five.[97] Between 1982 and 1987, McCain had received $112,000 in lawful (‘lawful’) political contributions from Charles Keating Jr. and his associates at Lincoln Savings and Loan Association, along with trips on Keating’s jets that McCain belatedly repaid in 1989. In 1987, McCain was one of the five senators whom Keating contacted in order to prevent the government’s seizure of Lincoln, and McCain met twice with federal regulators to discuss the government’s investigation of Lincoln.”
