Actually I meant NVA North Vietnamese Army...my mistake VC is Vietcong.
Another mistake I made was assuming everything John McCain said about his war record is the truth. Take this for example.
Here is the Link.
PRISONER OR HONORED GUEST?
McCain’s 5½-year stay at the Hanoi Hilton (officially Hoa Loa Prison) has ever since been the subject of great controversy. He maintains that he
was tortured and otherwise badly mistreated. One of many who disagree is Dennis Johnson, imprisoned at Hanoi and never given treatment for his broken
leg. He reports that every time he saw McCain, who was generally kept segregated, the man was clean-shaven, dressed in fresh clothes, and appeared
comfortable among North Vietnamese Army officers. He adds that he frequently heard McCain’s collaborative statements broadcast over the prison’s
loud speakers.
On October 26, 1967, McCain’s A-4 Skyhawk was shot down over Hanoi. The fractures of 1 leg and both arms were reportedly due to his failure to tuck
them in during ejection. According to U.S. News & World Report (May 14, 1973), McCain didn’t wait long before offering military information in
return for medical care. While an extraordinary patient at Gi Lam Hospital, he was visited by a number of dignitaries, including, to quote McCain
himself, General Vo Nguyen Giap, the national hero of Dienbienphu.

I was just busting Leo's chops. I sort of figured he made a typo.
And your choices are North Vietnamese Army (NVA) or the Viet Cong (VC).

Who really is McCain?
Oh he's the root of all evil as far as you're concerned so why bother discussing anything with you, BH. You're opinions are as pre-packaged and
tarnished as cheap Wal-Mart flatware. No amount of evidence would ever convince you that Obama was a bad man, even if he admitted to acts of crime
himself. You would give him a walk.

What crimes? Even the FBI agrees that McCain's BS is just that, BS. If Ayers was really as bad as you say they would have arrested him. But they
didn't. And also Palin's husband is a registered member of a terrorist group that declared war on America and is trying to destroy the Union as we
speak. But you and your ilk always seem to ignore this fact. Palin even sent them a message telling them to keep up the good work. That's right,
keep up the Civil War against America and rip that star off.

1. Did anyone ever see McCain over Ayers house for coffee and election planning?
Did you?!?!?!? I don't recall that. I'm gonna call LIE and ask for a link. I don't believe that a honorable man like John Sidney McCain would be
palling around with education board members.
2. Did John McCain receive 100 million dollars to go out into Chicago neighborhoods to incite children to defy authority?
WHAAAHUH?! My allowance was never that big! I wish I had elitist parents too! I was a punk kid and never got ANYTHING....I wish I knew rich guys who
would give me money JUST to defy authority. That whole time I was doing it for FREE!
3. Did John McCain sit at numorous meetings with Ayers?
6
4. Did Ayers launch McCains political carreer?
If by carreer you mean career.....then the answer is: HE DIDN'T. They both sat on a educational policy board. Bill Ayres is a college
professor....not a politician.
I need to go bang my head on something now......

Bang it on something soft ok? No need to hurt your brain over this kind of stupidity. McCain and the GOP has more ties to Ayers then Obama. After
all it was Reagan's BFF who put Ayers on the board.
