ABC News' David Wright, reporting just this last Wednesday:
"McCain became visibly angry when I asked him to explain how his Vietnam experience prepared him for the Presidency.By the way, have you seen John McCain's latest ad? Message duly approved, of course, by the shot down, bayoneted maverick himself.
"'Please,' he said, recoiling back in his seat in distaste at the very question.
"McCain then collected himself and apologized for his initial reaction.
"'I kind of reacted the way I did because I have a reluctance to talk about my experiences,' he said.
"'I am always reluctant to talk about these things.'"
hahahaha, Reluctant to talk about it, IT is why he is where he is AND his entire campaign sits on that foundation. GIMME A BREAK
ReplyDeletePretty weak foundation, too, in my opinion. Here's to hoping it cracks beyond repair.
ReplyDelete"The world is a scary place..."
ReplyDeleteSo sick of the McFear Mongers.
Is there anything McCain says that we can take seriously?
ReplyDeleteYeah, he really wants to sweep that part of his life under the rug. I really don't have a problem with him using it in a ad, but be honest about it.
ReplyDeletePOW as qualification for POTUS just doesn't make sense to me anyway. Sure, he's showing how he "served" his country (whatever the hell that means) and how he now wants to serve in a different capacity. And, um, frankly, his first go-round "in service" can't exactly be called a success.
ReplyDeleteDoug,
ReplyDeleteI agree, but what else does McCain have. He had 30 years to change things in Washington, and now he expects us to believe that he's the guy if we want change...I don't think so.
