more Jan 6 rioters in trouble

You say that in a condescending manner but the fact is that, if they’re real ailments, both are things that would disqualify a person. Talk to a recruiter next time you get a chance. Today, 8 in 10 kids are ineligible because they’re too fat, too stoned, or too stupid. Originally Posted by Jacuzzme

I would have faked bone spurs or asthma in a minute to avoid going to Vietnam. The question though is, should Trump, who jumped through hoops to avoid getting drafted, have criticized McCain for getting captured. Especially considering McCain spent 5-1/2 years as a POW in North Vietnam.

But no matter - McCain is dead now.

Yeah, McCain had an unhealthy vendetta. You see that not only in his promotion of the Steele Dossier, but also his vote against changing the Affordable Care Act. Even though I disagree with both of those actions, I find them understandable. More understandable anyway than Ted Cruz becoming Trump's lapdog after what Trump said about his wife and his father.

There's no sense dancing on the man's grave Salty.

Jesus Christ you're stupid.
Once again you demand people see what an ignorant asshole you are.
John McCain had the following medals.
Silver Star
Legion of Merit (2 with combat "V")
Distinguished Flying Cross
Bronze Star (3 with combat "V")
Purple Heart (2)

A "V" device is a metal 1⁄4-inch (6.4 mm) capital letter "V" with serifs which, when worn on certain decorations awarded by the United States Armed Forces, distinguishes an award for heroism or valor in combat instead of for meritorious service or achievement.

The Bronze Star with "V" is awarded for valor or bravery during combat actions against an enemy force. It is the fourth highest award for military combat bravery.

The Distinguished Flying Cross is a military decoration awarded to any officer or enlisted member of the United States Armed Forces who during military operations, exemplifies acts of "heroism or extraordinary achievement while participating in an aerial flight, subsequent to November 11, 1918.”

Can you see why your opinion is worthless? He received numerous medals before he was captured. And even without those medals he was a hero. You don't know shit about him.
You would have been blowing guards for the extra protein to survive. And you still wouldn't have lived. You would have jumped at the chance for early release.

They don't give MOHs to people who just survive. Duh!!! But MOH winners aren't the only heroes. There have been 3525 MOH awarded. It's the top medal. There have been many, many more than 3525 heroes since the Civil War.

he was no hero. a hero is someone who goes above an beyond the call of duty. being a pow does not count. he survived. they don't give the Medal of Honor to people who merely survive.No shit, sherlock. Who said they did? they give them to heroes.






why did you go there in the first place? Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid

McCain was a bonehead! good riddance!

Promotion of the dossier? That's what you get when you only watch fox.

Sen. Lindsey Graham says he told John McCain to give Trump-Russia dossier to FBI
Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) said Monday he had told Sen. John McCain to give the FBI the dossier on the Trump campaign’s alleged ties to Russia, a revelation that comes after Trump repeatedly assailed the late Arizona Republican over the issue. Last week, Trump accused McCain of handing over the document “for very evil purposes.” McCain died of brain cancer in August.

Graham, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, told reporters Monday McCain showed him the dossier when he received it in late 2016.

“And I told him the only thing I knew to do with it, it could be a bunch of garbage, it could be true, who knows? Turn it over to somebody whose job it is to find these things out, and John McCain acted appropriately,” Graham said, according to CNN.
Graham said he “was very direct” with Trump on the issue and told the president McCain “deserves better” than Trump’s recent public attacks on him.
The infamous dossier, compiled for Democrats by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele, contains a number of unverified claims about Trump’s alleged Russia connections.

Earlier this month, Trump falsely claimed in a tweet that McCain had “sent the Fake Dossier to the FBI and Media hoping to have it printed BEFORE the Election.”


"So it was indeed (just proven in court papers) “last in his class” (Annapolis) John McCain that sent the Fake Dossier to the FBI and Media hoping to have it printed BEFORE the Election. He & the Dems, working together, failed (as usual). Even the Fake News refused this garbage!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 17, 2019"

“He & the Dems, working together, failed (as usual). Even the Fake News refused this garbage!” Trump said in the tweet.

McCain was not made aware of the Steele dossier until Nov. 18, 2016 — after Trump had won the election. And while McCain himself gave the dossier to the FBI, there is no evidence he gave it to the media.

Former McCain aide David Kramer, a Russia expert, has testified that he gave the dossier to the media in December 2016."

I don't even want to hear what the Trumpys would have done with it. We saw what they did with the hard drive.

All this time you thought McCain gave it to the media before the election.
You were sure of it.

A piece of shit con man shit all over a great American.

And you think Graham never told Trump when it happened ?
Trump is a total pile of shit.

You Trumpettes are a fucking joke in this forum. I'm glad it's safe to say none of you have ever had any real power in life to shit on other people with your sheer stupidity.

John McCain was an honorable man. The fact that he was smart enough to realize that Trump is the exact opposite and you warp minded old clowns take offense is not a reason to speak ill of him for what he accomplished during his lifetime.

Oh, and you sensitive old lady simpletons can RTM away if you are offended. Trust me, I'll still be just fine. Will you old nut jobs be though considering the fact that nothing will change no matter how much you cry about a complete scumbag like Trump on a whore board of all places? You old gullible dipshits probably believe Trump bought the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants because of his high level of integrity and nothing else. LOL

Btw, RTFT. I was the only person defending McCain before you got here.

You were spot on with your post about about McCain being a war hero, sans the insults directed to our fellow poster Waco Kid. And wrong if you believe the Steele Dossier hasn’t been largely discredited.

I wonder why Graham didn’t turn over the dossier along with McCain if that’s how he felt. Well I guess that fits in with his change from being Trump’s biggest critic to having his head up his ass for 5 years.

Wrong. He was my grandson. He was Marks's boy. Believe it or not, my son wasn't gay. I was as surprised as anyone.
