Its common knowledge he was tortured, but no one ever says, specifically what he endured.

cliff notes version.
McCain was sent to a prisoner-of-war camp in Hanoi in December 1967, into a cell with two other Americans who did not expect him to live a week (one was Bud Day, a future Medal of Honor recipient); they nursed McCain and kept him alive.[38] In March 1968, McCain was put into solitary confinement, where he would be for two years.

I'm sure there was alot that only he knows. whatever happened during his captivity, I'm sure it was pretty.0 -

radiohead asked a simple question and you followed it up with a broken nonsense sentence. good job.0 -
WHo are you his mommy? Are you the moving train police? All I was alluding too was that many vets do not like to talk about their expierences.
I used to think you were not so bad of a guy with the arguments you have with ROLAND, but now I see you are nothing but a busy-body. who stick their nose where it does not belong.96 Randall's Island II

sorry but the question of how Senator McCain was tortured is not relevant to a discussion of politics. Its borders a smear in line with faked reports of illegitimate children.I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.

i remember seeing a show on it but i cant remember the details.
i know he had most of his teeth broken out and was tortured pretty much daily for most of the time. it also explained how the guards tried to get prisoners to turn on each other and one guard was a real bastard in particular. He could have gotten released earlier but refused offers to be taken before a few others. his hair turned white. tough mother fucker. thats all i know.0 -

Agreed...give me what McCain got.....please..Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

The question is definitely relevant if it makes him a prime candidate for emotional issues.
Looking at how he's running...he still thinks he in the war to fight "the gooks" so to speak.
I'd say he's been affected. He has an axe to grind....probably still has nightmares about it also.Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,

Yes, when McCain closes his eyes, he sees napalm explosions and huey helicopters flying over triple canopies while "The End" by the Doors plays in the background.0

come on Roland you know its bad politics in this case. You think he would have been a Senetor for this long he was unstable? With people like Rupert Murdock and Reverand Moonie Loonie around? McCain would have been toast a long time ago. And you know it!I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.
