What McCain means by change

changes McCain has MADE:

HERO= Man who gives North Vietnam information in less than 4 days of captivity
country first= information for medical care
leadership= the u.s commander of the POW telling McCain to refuse early return and that's an order(see why did McCain sell out AMERICA by David H.Hackworth)
Family= cheating on first wife
energy= no off shore drilling= Sided with Bush and the oil companies
change= a phrase stolen from his opponent

Do you call this change? I CALL IT A BOUGHT OF MEDIA!

1. mccain consistently ignores families of missing soldiers
But what about this former prisoner of war and his criticism of the very same people who fought to bring him home from the dark dank cell he likes to remind us about so much? - The POW/MIA Families of those less fortunate than McCain, those who still have yet to be returned to the soil they gave their lives for.

Since his return from Hanoi, McCain has …

~Ignored pleas of POW/MIA Family Members for his political influence in the overall POW/MIA Issue as well as with their individual cases

~Verbally abused POW/MIA Family Members in public and private

~Attempted to negatively influence those who testified before the 1992 Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs

~Diminished legislation that gave oversight and protection to the families

~Dismantled protection to any future servicemen that go missing.
