Supporters of Mr. McCain insist that his military service should be exempt from discussion, except when they feel like bringing it up to prove some point about national security, terrorism or the presidency that it really doesn’t prove at all. But of course he was not the only soldier, sailor or airman to survive such experiences with courage and nobility. There was once another former POW whose candidacy for high office vindicates the Clark argument.
Or has everyone forgotten Admiral Stockdale?
Go read.
I remember Admiral Stockdale as an honorable and somewhat dotty old gent who was enlisted somehow by Perot to participate in an election campaign that never stood a chance.
One can only wonder, or perhaps surmise, that POW captivity affected his dottiness. It follows that it had similar effects on McCain's mentality. Or exacerbated whatever defects were already present in his brain housing group to the point where he is absolutely unfit to be President.
