Somebody get a time machine! Riesstiu IV's stuck back there in the 20th Century!
I'll have you know I view things as if it were the 2nd century.
I predict that Ioannis McCainus of Arizonia will defeat the usurper, Baracus Husseinus Africanus. Imperator McCainus shall personally command the American legions in Mesopotamia and successfully lead a campaign to conquer the vile Sassanian Empire led by Shah Ahmadinejad. He will achieve a victory not seen since the days of Alexander the Great and much loot and slaves will flow to Washington.
Personnally, I like the 20th Century. I have my "I Like Ike" sign up on my lawn, pour myself a big glass of Kool Aid, and sit back and watch Leave it to Beaver.
McCain should annex Canada and free us from Harper.

But according to the DOJ, McCain was never tortured! He just was under "extreme stress"!
And Michelle Obama is x10 hotter than old lady McCain (veep is hot, tho will prolly shoot you. It's a repub VP thing).
I'm consitently stupid- Japher I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

It does sound much better when you put it that way.

Hmmm... I'd probably vote for Harper over any of the Republicans, and I'm a Liberal.

That's how bad ass McCain is. Despite the bet efforts by Vietcong (which include crushing his shoulder and bayoneting him), they could only mildly annoy him. The man is a damn demi-god and called his wife a c*nt when he she had the nerve to help free him from Hanoi just as he was about to singlehandedly win the Vietnam war and bring freedom, christianity, and the american way of life to the hordes of asiatic heathens.
Sadly, McCain's dream of a free Vietnam was not realized and pokemon red and blue only reached Vietnam 4 years after its original release. Depriving the Vietnamese people of much needed entertainment and lessons concerning capitalism and animal training.

What crashes?
Link?
I can find nothing.
ACK!
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

Oh, gawd. Yeah, captivity and, yes, torture, will do that to a person. Yes, I know also, Barak Obama was born part black. So let's pat him on the head and give him a pass.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
"Hating America is something best left to Mobius. He is an expert Yank hater.
He also hates Texans and Australians, he does diversify." ~ Braindead
You're not looking very hard then. And my bad, it was FIVE planes, the fifth being the one he got shot down in.
This is just the more detailed hit I got, but I'd heard about McCain's terrible flight record over a year ago.
And before someone b*tches about the source website, the information is from a book written in general about Annapolis graduates; read the second paragraph I've provided.
During his relative short stunt on flight status, McCain III lost five U.S. Navy aircraft, four in accidents and one in combat.
Robert Timberg, author of The Nightingale's Song, a book about Annapolis graduates and their tours in Vietnam, wrote that McCain "learned to fly at Pensacola, though his performance was below par, at best good enough to get by. He liked flying, but didn't love it."
McCain III lost jet number one in 1958 when he plunged into Corpus Christi Bay while practicing landings. He was knocked unconscious by the impact coming to as the plane settled to the bottom.
McCain's second crash occurred while he was deployed in the Mediterranean. "Flying too low over the Iberian Peninsula," Timberg wrote, "he took out some power lines [reminiscent of the 1998 incident in which a Marine Corps jet sliced through the cables of a gondola at an Italian ski resort, killing 20] which led to a spate of newspaper stories in which he was predictably identified as the son of an admiral."
McCain's third crash three occurred when he was returning from flying a Navy trainer solo to Philadelphia for an Army-Navy football game.
Timberg reported that McCain radioed, "I've got a flameout" and went through standard relight procedures three times before ejecting at one thousand feet. McCain landed on a deserted beach moments before the plane slammed into a clump of trees.
McCain's fourth aircraft loss occurred July 29, 1967, soon after he was assigned to the USS Forrestal as an A-4 Skyhawk pilot. While seated in the cockpit of his aircraft waiting his turn for takeoff, an accidently fired rocket slammed into McCain's plane. He escaped from the burning aircraft, but the explosions that followed killed 134 sailors, destroyed at least 20 aircraft, and threatened to sink the ship.
McCain's fifth loss happened during his 23rd mission over North Vietnam on Oct. 26, 1967, when McCain's A-4 Skyhawk was shot down by a surface-to-air missile. McCain ejected from the plane breaking both arms and a leg in the process and subsequently parachuted into Truc Bach Lake near Hanoi.
...
I'll give him a pass on the fourth jet as it really wasn't his fault, but I would think after three incidents he would have been grounded. Ah the benefits of having a father AND a grandfather who were both admirals...
Also of interest:
...
After being periodically slapped around for "three or four days" by his captors who wanted military information, McCain called for an officer on his fourth day of captivity. He told the officer, "O.K., I'll give you military information if you will take me to the hospital." -U.S. News and World Report, May 14, 1973 article written by former POW John McCain.
"Demands for military information were accompanied by threats to terminate my medical treatment if I [McCain] did not cooperate. Eventually, I gave them my ship's name and squadron number, and confirmed that my target had been the power plant." Page 193-194, Faith of My Fathers by John McCain.
...
The cake is NOT a lie. It's so delicious and moist.
The Weighted Companion Cube is cheating on you, that slut.
Didn't we already go through this with Bush being a lousy pilot?
Can't they come up with some new material?
Wow, DRose.
Let's see how you do under torture.
