McCain and the POW Cover-Up.......
or should we say McCon-Job
The “war hero”
candidate buried information about POWs left behind in Vietnam.

John McCain, who has risen to political
prominence on his image as a Vietnam POW war hero, has, inexplicably, worked
very hard to hide from the public stunning information about American prisoners
in Vietnam who, unlike him, didn’t return home. Throughout his Senate career,
McCain has quietly sponsored and pushed into federal law a set of prohibitions
that keep the most revealing information about these men buried as classified
documents. Thus the war hero who people would logically imagine as a determined
crusader for the interests of POWs and their families became instead the
strange champion of hiding the evidence and closing the books.Almost as striking is the manner in which the mainstream press has shied from reporting the POW story and McCain’s role in it, even as the Republican Party has made McCain’s military service the focus of his presidential campaign. Reporters who had covered the Vietnam War turned their heads and walked in other directions. McCain doesn’t talk about the missing men, and the press never asks him about them.
The sum of the secrets McCain has sought to hide is not small. There exists a telling mass of official documents, radio intercepts, witness depositions, satellite photos of rescue symbols that pilots were trained to use, electronic messages from the ground containing the individual code numbers given to airmen, a rescue mission by a special forces unit that was aborted twice by Washington—and even sworn testimony by two Defense secretaries that “men were left behind.” This imposing body of evidence suggests that a large number—the documents indicate probably hundreds—of the U.S. prisoners held by Vietnam were not returned when the peace treaty was signed in January 1973 and Hanoi released 591 men, among them Navy combat pilot John S. McCain.
Mass
of Evidence
The Pentagon has been withholding
significant information from POW families for years. What’s more, the
Pentagon’s POW/MIA operation had been publicly shamed by internal
whistleblowers and POW families for holding back documents as part of a policy
of “debunking” POW intelligence even when the information was obviously
credible.READ HERE FOR THE REST OF THE STORY......

My husband said McCain was not what he pretended to be.. He also said McCain was a so brainwashed during his captivity he barely knew who he was. My husband said McCain was and is a Manchurian Canidate.. He should have known; He was a Colonel in SPECIAL OPS involving the Cambodian Oil Sands. He was murdered by this group of S.O.B's. Mrs. Col.

Amen - and it can't happen soon enough. Many of us had family members and friends left behind. We have been told many stories of what went on in Nam by those who were fortunate enough to make a return trip home. The stories about McCain and his treason, along with Jane Fonda, are not anything new. These have been around since the war ended, and yet Americans look up to McCain - and seemingly 'elect' and 're-elect' this traitor (wonder whether his 'elections wins' are actually vote fraud like in other similar situations). WHEN are Americans going to have had ENOUGH and arrest these traitors - starting at the top and working through and down the traitor-chain????? The ones smart and informed enough about these people need to get moving quickly while they still can. Let the dumb ones continue in their folly. It is not worth the time or effort any more to attempt to educate those too stupid to 'get it.' They have been spoon fed plenty of information for a very long time. We who are informed are the dumb ones if we don't get these very serious affairs of this nation taken care of quickly. Enough is enough.
