McCain Responds to Clinton Innuendo

Bill “I was a draft dodger” Clinton is implying that McCain’s POW experience is a negative. (Why wouldn’t the Democrats try to tear down his strength of character?)
Here’s McCain’s response:

Lord.  If a Democrat tried to make this claim they would be accused of being hyper-sensitive, a whiny baby and someone playing political games.

Clinton was speaking about Mandela, period.

He said, ‘I felt anger and hatred and fear. And I realized that if I kept hating them once I got in that car and got through the gate I would still be in prison. So I let it go ‘cause I wanted to be free.’

There is a… Every living soul on the planet has some often highly-justified anger. Everybody. And just learning that you have to… And by the way, I said this at his birthday, I’m probably one of the few people who’s actually seen him mad on more than one occasion.

You know, it’s just like if you know anybody who was ever a P.O.W. for any length of time, you will see that you go along for months or maybe even years and then something will happen that will trigger all those bad dreams and they’ll come back, and it may not last 30 seconds… That’s the thing that makes his life so monumental. It’s not like all that stuff just went away. But he disciplined himself and his mind and his heart and his spirit to always work to constantly overcome it every day.

Anyone making any more of this is just a hyper-sensitive baby.

Isn’t that an Italian suppository?


What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity?  I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.

Lord. Do we have to teach this guy English and the meaning of words?
When, pray tell, was Mandela a Prisoner of War? Which war was it?
Mandela was a political prisoner, but not a Prisoner Of War. (Which is what POW stands for in case you didn’t know!)Period.

BTW: as an apologist for Clinton and the Democrats, you make an excellent hyper-sensitive baby!

A prisoner of war (POW, PoW, PW, P/W or PsW) is a combatant who is imprisoned by an enemy power during or immediately after an armed conflict.

To qualify under the Fourth Geneva Convention, a combatant must have conducted military operations according to the laws and customs of war, be part of a chain of command, wear a “fixed distinctive marking, visible from a distance” and bear arms openly. Thus, uniforms and/or badges are important in determining prisoner-of-war status

Nelson Mandela? Hardly!

Italians don’t get into anal stuff.  You’re thinking of the Greeks.
