1. LOL. Excellent. nt

[benddem]

2. that's a riot

but...I went out with an ex-pow and he knew hundreds of games of solitaire. He said they made themselves cards and then taught each other different games. The point of the cartoon however is spot on.

3. This is CLASSIC!!!!!!! nt

[NYC_SKP]

4. I didn't have a deck. I didn't have a card.

I didn't have a card table.

[mmm413]

17. Are you a POW too?

[NYC_SKP]

26. Yes, I am a POW....no card, no deck, but....

they were nice enough to let me have this MacBook air and wireless service!!!

:rofl:

[mamalone]

35. Well, when I was a POW....

we had to make our computers out of twigs and threads we pulled out of our raggedy clothing, and then we had to hide them under our bunks or they'd be confiscated and we'd be punished. Sounds like you were at a much nicer camp than I was;)

[RichGirl]

46. You had bunks!!??!!!!

LUCKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

[mamalone]

49. hee hee hee

;)

[NYC_SKP]

52. You had Twigs!!!

We dreamed of having twigs.

We used to use our fingers to scrawl little pictures of twigs in the sand.

5. Luckovich does it again. Love it! LOL! k/r/nt

[bunnies]

6. Genius. Thats my new wallpaper! I love it. nt

[Spazito]

7. LOL, Perfect, as usual, for Luckovich!

To see toons truth telling on this issue is great! McCain has, sadly, made being a POW into a cliche. POWs must be furious with him for diminishing what happened to them and turning their experience into a ridiculous excuse used to deflect any and all questions.

29. hahaHAhahaha!

[Pwong]

30. Much Appreciated!

This post hit the nail on the head, besides being hysterically funny. The question after all the POW hype is, "SO...WHAT?!" I certainly don't feel that running out the same POW card is going to help McCain's ratings more then any of his other ill attempted publicity launches within the past few months. So why not just cut your losses and try to run a platform on issues that actually have a bearing on the public.

[NYC_SKP]

53. Welcome to DU!

Nice to have someone from San Mateo on the board...

[DUlover2909]

37. LOL

:rofl:

[rambler_american]

38. Even if McCain had been allowed to play cards

he's never played with a full deck anyway.

[TexasObserver]

39. If I could be serious for a moment, Jay, for 5 and half years, I didn't have a home.

I lived in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER.

47. Text from recent McCain interview about being a POW

JM: ...and when there was no meat, we ate fowl and when there was no fowl, we ate crawdad and when there was no crawdad to be found, we ate sand.

Press: You ate what?

JM: We ate sand.



Press: You ate SAND?

JM: That's right!
