McCain's survival experience needed

There has been much talk lately about John McCain's military service.

It is well known that McCain served in the Navy during Vietnam (just like John Kerry) and was a P.O.W. for much of that time.

Therefore, I am ready to throw my full support behind this man as our next president. This United States is about to become an economic prisoner to just about the whole rest of the world and who better than a man re-cut from the mold of G.W. Bush, who got us in this mess in the first place, and a man who has the experience to survive such an ordeal, to lead us into our bleak future.
