Yes...a guest at the infamous "hanoi hilton"
in Viet Nam for 5 years. Endured unspeakable torture. Worse because he refused to make the propaganda tapes for the enemy. When given the chance to be released early because his father was a high ranking military officer, McCain refused to jump the line because there were men who had been there longer than him. That made it much worse for him in captivity again because the enemy wanted to use the release as propaganda. People try to minimize that, but to me he indicates he has amazing strength of character, unwavering patriotism and a love of country that rivals anyone's.
is it a right, privilege, or responsibility
Just curious - this question was raised at the 2nd debate. Is health care a right, privilege or a responsibility? How do you all feel about it? I feel it is a right but one that comes with a price, that one does not deserve health care simply because one is alive but that one deserves health care and must be willing to take responsibility for expenses (not all, obviously, because no one could afford that) but premiums, etc., and that one should have to be responsible about their use of health care (no ER abuse, use preventive care, etc.). How do you feel about it? What would you like to see done to reform health care in the US?
Dual citizenship is not a crime. It's a privilege.
Repeat one GOOD reason?
Obama keeps state secrets privilege
Just to start a discussion about this, were Obama's eyes opened as he learned more about this program or was he sent to the "Dick Cheny mind meld machine?" (quote from Bryan Cunningham, former CIA and Justice Department attorney.)
