John McCain has been exploiting his prisoner of war experience every chance he gets. He has used this story to justify everything from not knowing how many homes he has to his healthcare plan to his marital infidelities to his taste in music. The McCain campaign is even using his POW story in paid ads. But now a veteran who was a prisoner with McCain in Vietnam is explaining loud and clear that being a POW does not qualify McCain to lead our country.
Dr. Phillip Butler knew McCain as a fellow POW. Watch and listen!
We are sure this video will draw an onslaught of right-wing attacks, but we bring it to you because it is our job to continue to convey the truth together and give these issues national attention. As Dr. Butler has said, McCain does not have the temperament to have his finger near the red button. Get this video to everyone you know—friends, family members, coworkers, and especially those who don't share your political views. The video is designed to reach them. Get it on your social networking sites like Digg. And get it to every blog, newspaper, and TV station that has ever overplayed McCain's POW story. It is time to fight back with truth!
The mainstream press has already begun to call out McCain for overusing his POW story. And it's cut across all political persuasions. * "Whether he's deflecting criticism over his health-care plan or mocking a tribute to the Woodstock music festival, Senator John McCain has a trump card: the Hanoi Hilton. — Edwin Chen, Bloomberg * "Noun, Verb, POW" — Andrew Sullivan, The Atlantic Monthly * "The McCain campaign's constant invocation of the candidate's POW past is weird bordering on irrational..." — Ana Marie Cox, TIME * "I think they are going to it way too many times." — Howard Fineman, Newsweek
Remember how Joe Biden got the press to refer to Rudy Giuliani as "A noun, a verb, and 9/11"? Well, let's actually take Andrew Sullivan's lead here and get the media to boil McCain down to a similar phrase: "A noun, a verb, and POW." Considering how often the McCain campaign invokes his POW story, isn't that what they're already doing?

On qualification: Can you please fucking explain to me how a mayor and governor is less qualified than a state senator who didnt do shit but campaign his last 2 years in office? Where is your logic?
wait.. how can homosexuals make up 8% of the population yet 10% of the electorate? where did the other 2% come from ? so gay people were the ones that elected Obama ? does that mean str8 people's votes are meaningless ? so as the first gay elected president do they get to remake the constitution like Bush did ? do u think they will outlaw str8 people since u said they were meaningless ? very eye opening observation u made.
Homosexuals, being politically active, tend to be more reliable voters and hence will make up a larger share of the tallied votes than there percentage of the general population. For example, 18 to 20 year olds would make up a sma;;er percentage of the votes than thir percentage of the population, because 18 to 20year olds especially str8s do not vote reliably.
all I am saying is that if homosexuals did not vote overwhelmingly for Obama, the election would have been close and Obama would not have won. I don't think anyone will or should be banned
if we delete older veterans out of the McCain voting block then how did Mccain do ? if we delete the right wing Jesus freaks how would McCain have done ? "Rev" Hagee & Parsley both support/endorse McCain and are a danger to the country more so than terrorist.
