John McCain can't handle Vet question over GI Bill

[kevinmc]

John McCain can't seem to handle people questioning his accountability on G.I. Bill even if they are Vets.

John McCain gets testy with a vet when questioned on his lack of support for Jim Webb's GI Bill and other bills that he's voted against which would support veterans.

He also attack's Jim Webb who actually did the G.I Bill. Said Jim Webb hasn't done enough.

1. mccain does not want GI's going to college

he wants them dying in Iraq. Education is not a conservative value, having other people's children die for a liar is.

2. A strong suggestion

and since I never seem to get anywhere trying to moderate my own posts I was hoping someone finally would
run a comparison between McCain and the only other Vietnam POW to run on the big ticket. Perot picked and
mishandled Stockdale whose awkward debate appearance was the sole thing he is remembered for and none of his storied military career. Check out his Wikipedia entry for starters.

Tortured and had a big secret to reveal(his personal participation in the phony Gulf of Tonkin incident),
he mutilated himself so he couldn't be used for propaganda purposes. He organized and supported help for MIA's(that McCain turned his back on).

In every way his career and POW performance was truly superior, heroic, exemplary in every category compared with McCain's. Yet the real big difference is this. Like Kerry and so many others on the outs with the MSM, all that was pushed aside and negative political "gaffes" practically tattooed onto their tombstones while McCain's checkered service record is exalted beyond all real and obvious flaws- much worse in reality than Stockdale who eventually died of Alzheimer's.

There was little successful talk in defending Stockdale or Kerry or any other honest Vet. There is precious little realistic presentation of the truly noxious McCain and too much wrapping him in the mantle of honor earned by others.

Now why would that be, MSM?

4. Awful

McCain clearly can't handle criticism and resorts to lying whenever he is challenged. We need to spread this far and wide.

6. LOL..."I have the votes right here" McCain can't believe his lying eyes.

It cracks me up the wey pols will continue to distort and lie when someone is standing right in front of them with his votes on a specific bill.
