Like, for instance, your assertion that most states require unionization? Might wanna fact-check that, too.<BR/><BR/>You REALLY don't want to go down the "Which Political Party Has More Military Servicemen" road, honey. Try researching that, too.<BR/><BR/>Oh, I think being a "shitty pilot" speaks volumes to his commitment to learning his trade and his priorities--booze and women versus being a crack Naval officer. It spotlights the hype in his claims to put country first, too. <BR/><BR/>Bravery? Since the Vietnam War ended, McCain has been anything but brave. He's a carpetbagger who left his wife in crisis because her beauty had been marred in a severe car accident, and married a woman with millions to fund his fun and his ambitions. Those are facts. <BR/><BR/>Maybe to you they add up to bravery, but to me, they add up to being a selfish, predatory whore. <BR/><BR/>At best, McCain is a formerly brave whore who isn't above whoring out his POW status (and his former principled opposition to the dangerous Christianist Right, and his former principled position on immigration) for ambition's sake. <BR/><BR/>Read my "John McCain and Real War Heroes" post (8-27-08) if you want examples of genuine bravery, principle, heroism, and integrity. McCain isn't fit to polish their shoes.PICOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11279534910153052872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6583071384880320326.post-24474543564744228902008-09-05T10:16:00.000-07:002008-09-05T10:16:00.000-07:00I did Pico, and it looks like he wasn't a flying a...I did Pico, and it looks like he wasn't a flying ace in any sense of the word. And, you are right, he did crash a few planes that were not shot down. However, they appear to have been due to mechanical failures. Maybe, maybe not. I guess we'll never know. For the sake of argument though, let's assume they were all pilot error. It proves he wasn't a good pilot, but hardly takes away from his service record in flying 23 missions over Viet Nam. Being a shitty pilot doesn't diminish his bravery. McCain was there; Biden had 5 deferments.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6583071384880320326.post-55128882802416638232008-09-05T07:29:00.000-07:002008-09-05T07:29:00.000-07:00Do your homework, RWR.Do your homework, RWR.PICOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11279534910153052872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6583071384880320326.post-78254553137073640282008-09-04T22:18:00.000-07:002008-09-04T22:18:00.000-07:00Now you attack me again.

I ...No substance Pico, just more personal attacks. I can tell from your writing that you're smarter than that. <BR/><BR/>McCain, who I'm no fan of, flew something like 23 missions in Viet Nam. The odds were against him. To call him a bad pilot is a very cheap and unpatriotic shot. You SHOULD be above that.<BR/><BR/>Palin way outshines Obama in terms of experience and moxie. It would be nice if a single liberal blog would focus on issues instead of revealing how scared they are of her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
