We have all heard the stories about Senator John McCain’s exemplary military service. We have all been treated to the endless references to his wounds from the war that were inflicted through his agonizing years of torture at the hands of the North Vietnamese.
We are all, by now, through one term as a US Representative, five terms as a US Senator (and counting), and three presidential primary runs where he was expected in the early going in 1999 to be able to defeat Al Gore, familiar with his excellence in service to America. Of course, in that race, he ultimately bowed to the superiority of the Bush family when George W. came on the scene to wrap up the primary race in a big way and ultimately embarrass the senator with a win of 47 states.
McCain tried again in 2004 to a worse jumping-off point, but rebounded in 2008, winning the primary, only to be completely consumed by the massive and corrupt political activist machine powered by the cult of personality that was Barack Obama. You could almost call John McCain the slightly less feminine version of Hillary Clinton.
This is not to mention all the completely fawning press coverage that he has enjoyed over the decades since his return from captivity in 1973 (with the notable exception of his run against the hallowed personage of Obama…even the press is not going to cut their throats that deeply for a dirty Republican).
We now know that all of the lies that were told about his captivity were the first chapter in a mythology for the purposes of a long and lucrative political career. We know about how he and John Kerry paired to bury information about POW/MIA personnel to hide their own shameful past in the “prisons” of Indochina.
Allegations have been made by many that the hellish inferno aboard the USS Forrestal in 1967 that caused 134 sailors and airmen to lose their lives…all due to a PRANK by then airmen John McCain!

Mccain has always been a fraud
Yep he sure did. Some felt his Daddy had him captured so he wouldn’t$#%&!@*anything else up.
In my opinion, his Admiral father is the only reason he didn’t spend the rest of his life in the brig.
Horrible
This is true, I researched it! He really is a very bad guy! Mistreated his first wife very badly! Pretty much a really bad guy! Wonder how much money he is getting for these stunts? He has medical care paid for of course he don’t care about anyone else, has always been selfish.
Thank you so muc for an article that finally puts light on john mccain. Talk to those in the military and you get a whole different picture of what he is! A coward!
NO HONOR, CHARACTER OR INTEGRITY WITH THIS EVIL DEMON
Verenice you and those too young to remember need to read this.
Yes indeedy,
Wanda Northrup McDougal yes but what caused the missile to fire like I said things get covered up I was in the Navy also I bet you never served one day in the military my father-in-law flew a A4s in the same battle group. They sure leave out a lot of details and how come some of that information is classified cuz they had the record sealed because they don’t want people to know what really happened that’s what happens when your grandfather came as the Pacific Fleet okay the truth of the matter is John McCain barely flew any missions in Vietnam before he was shot down. Look it up it’s fact. He wet fired a jet on the aircraft carrier too many people saw it too many people know what happened then they be covered it up because his grandfather commanded the Pacific Fleet. He got through flight school because father and grandfather were both 4-star admirals. John McCain should have been washed out he should have never been. You can take your little factcheck.org and keep it there’s too many other sources out there it’s a different in too many people out there that’s a different. My father-in-law was there I think he knows what happened
