I have great respect for this guy for his POW years. Rest in Peace John.

He was held for five years by the North Vietnamese and tortured. Because he was an admiral’s son, he was offered early release by his captors. But he refused, sticking with the US military’s code of conduct that says POWs should only accept release in the order that they were captured.

I know! Can you imagine that? Absolute courage and dedication to his fellow POWs. I didn't always agree with John McCain, but this is worth respect. And the fact he kept his integrity and dignity at the end of his life when all about him were losing theirs.
He didn't always have those two qualities, but I think he was trying to do better at the end.

Not always a fan of his politics but more often than not had great respect for him. He was a true American who I believe had the country's best interests at heart and wasn't afraid to put country over political party. RIP
Yes, I’m aware.
Can’t comment without it turning into a Hot Topic. Let’s say that SwiftDogs do not support that individual.
I understand. And I support SwiftDogs who do not support that individual.
.....he was one of the old guard politicians and kept his business focused on the best interests of this country for the most part....as a man, he deserves our ultimate respect as one of the TRUE American heroes.....John?.....you done good, rest ye easy.......
R.I.P. Many prayers for his family and friends.
I went to hear him speak during his 2000 Presidential campaign. He loved this country.

Out of respect for John McCain and his family, I have deleted all negative comments and responses to them.
Thank you for your understanding.
