McIdiot got shot down FIVE TIMES and finally ended up in a POW camp after being saved by Vietnamese farmers. He gave up who his father was almost immediately and is still suspected of having helped the other side.

Given the nastiness of the conflict, few would begrudge his cooperation but labeling everyone who serves as a 'hero' cheapens the word. Some people really are heroic but getting shot down isn't a heroic act in and of itself.

More importantly, THANK OUR LUCKY STARS that Gramps McCain and Failing Pailin aren't in office...that would have been an utter disaster.

Yes you are welcome, from those who voted intelligently.
