McCain Backer Chides Giuliani Over Torture

Submitted by Marc, Nov 7, 2007 13:09

Just how long is John McCain going to use his former POW status as the bedrock to his campaign? He has the audacity to call Guliani out on his sleep deprivation comment yet what McCain truly needs to do is look in the mirror. He has made it a personal mission, in the name of re-establishment of relations and later on trade with Vietnam, to "bury" those who were left behind in Vietnam after the war. He accuses Guliani of belittling the service and sacrifice of men who served as POWs, all the while he has done even more incredulous things to those who have yet to return from Vietnam and their families. Sadly, these are the same families who, while McCain was "tied up", were fighting with Washington to make sure that he and the others were not forgotten. Only to turn around and slap them all in the face with his refusal to address the POW/MIA Issue and then culminating in his treachery during the 1992 Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs.

He regularly tells POW/MIA families that it is time to move on and get over Vietnam, well, maybe he should take some of his own advice.
