Ustwo, you are lazy with the English language. Consistently. It drives me up the wall sometimes.

Annapolis is in Maryland. The last time I checked, it was last invaded in 1812-13. McCain is old, but he is not old. His college record has nothing to do with his war record. My ONLY comment about his war service was that he was an average pilot - hardly a great condemnation, and really immaterial given that his "real" war record started after he was shot down.

You'll notice I've never commented on his POW years. Search all my posts over the past 4 years. You won't find a thing.

Let's get this straight - in college, McCain was a poor student and a disciplinary problem. Those that worked with him after college did not hold him particularly high regard. These are hard facts. They havenothing to do with his war record.

I'm talking about his college record. If he'd been a fratboy douchebag that went to the University of Alabama, I would have commented about that.

You weren't paying attention. There was actually lots said about it, as well as his rehabilitation.
