Make-Believe Maverick A closer look at the life and career of John McCain
Edited on Wed Oct-08-08 07:15 PM by joewicker_TX
This is a very interesting article on John McCain written by Tim Dickson from Rolling Stone. It lays out a very clear picture of McShame and his record of scary, reckless and dishonest behavior. Anyone who reads this and still has any respect for McShame is truly a lost cause.

The article shows that it was posted in Rolling Stone on 10/16/08...being that the 16th has not yet occurred, my guess is that it is supposed to be 10/6/08...IMHO.

3. Why hasn't the media trumpeted this like they did to Kerry?

4. torture?
Did you know, McCain was never actually tortured. He was shot down and immediately made a deal with his captors. They all became quick friends, as McCain exchanged favors for favors. The favors McCain provided were, of course, logistical (meaning, McCain gave information on his fellow American soldiers).

So much for being a 'war-hero'.
