Default Re: McCain wants America in Iraq because of Vietnam

Can't you read? They are saying McCain is mad at the captors and his pals are mad at American superiors for sending them there because: McCain spent the worst years for American soldiers in prison, THOSE YEARS WHEN KERRY AND OTHERS LEARNED IT WAS NOT WORTH FIGHTING.

Just imagine an American soldier captured at the begining of Iraq invasion by Al Qaeda and released when American military decides to leave Iraq without success. This soldier will not experience all the setbacks that we have been witnessing for 5 years.

I think this article is right on!
