McCain went to war, did his job, was captured and imprisoned and later set free. I respect all the POWs and everyone who went to war, but enough of John McCain is enough unless he is willing to step aside and make room for all the other POWs.
I know you don't like Nobama, and niether do I. And for me...I don't "worship" anyone. The reason he didn't become president is because of some of the reasons Geo wrote, the majority of the voters in america were fed up with Bush, thought Bush was supporting his oil buddies, etc...which NOW we ALL know wasn't true.

I don't give McCain all that much attention either...not even sure he would have pulled us out of the fire...but what really burns my britches is the fact that the american people voted for a politician with little to NO experience over McCain...Ok, maybe McCain wasn't the guy we needed, but I GAURANTEE you NObama should have NEVER been elected! And right now I hope old Newt ain't doing more harm for the republican party than good, which could very well mean four more years of Bozo for president.

I also agree with Splitshot...bad things happen in war and just because they do (Marine or not) it doesn't make them right. I'm under the opinion of what happens at war should stay at war...no filming, photographing and distributing such pictures of video's on the internet. I'm not judging the guys who urinated on the corpses...not even sure what I would do if I was in their shoes, maybe I would have done the same thing as them, who knows, I hope I wouldn't have but who knows. Kind of seems to me they won that fight, killed the opponent, took their lives, etc...leave the rest up to God.
