Well written....Why is John McCain a war hero...because his plane was shot down in action? Remember, he broke down in questioning by the enemy at the time and gave in to answering all there untrue created remarks for McCain. He did this to save himself from torture. Hundreds of other american captives did not give in and absorbed the brutality. NOW THEY WERE HERO'S....JOHN MCCAIN WAS NOT.....A COWARD YES...A HERO..NO WAY!

buonefortune..so your view is that John MaCain is a coward because he served his country; spent 5 years in a 4x6 cell in absolute squalor; was beaten mercilessly on a daily basis ;and refused to leave prison early because it wasn't fair to others. What could your definition of bravery possibly be??

That's just his account of the story. There are many veterans out there that differ with this account. I think it was never investigated, because he was the son of an admiral. Do a google search on "McCain" "against" "veterans" and start reading.

I do njot know who is less informed, Jovial or Buonefortune. First, McCain cannot raise his arms above his head because of the amount of torture he endured at the hands of his RVN captors. As for being investigated, I was a member of the Operqation Homecoming Defriefing team, and we were all ordered to forget wear crimes, so even if he had said something, which he did not, he would not have been investigated. The ONLY ones who were investigated were those who gave aid and comfort to the enemy, and they were in a distinct minority, much to the credit of those who served in the US Military.

This is the account of the conditions according to his cell mate. I'm not a John McCain fan politically, but I can't deny he's a hero that loves America.

Really, and where did you get this documented information. Please show us where you got this from, because I have heard otherwise. I am thinking that you are speaking off the top of your head (& i am being nice) like a true lefty demo. Where were you in vietnam? or the gulf war or Iraq for that matter. You did serve your country? right?
