Dear John McCain

You need to go look for your soul. You were once in Bowe Bergdahl's shoes as a POW yourself, you should have enough compassion for him not to spin this for political gain. I once had respect for you back when you appeared to have a soul. I must have been wrong about you I thought human suffering caused compassion for others, apparently it didn't in your case.

If you call that fucking up then I guess almost all of the POWs held in North Vietnam fucked up.

That's why I said "Or not".
I recall something about him not being authorized to be where he was or "something" was amiss.
Do you know the details, because I'm hazy on it... that's why I asked. Like I said, I'll research this.

I have read about it here and there but don't remember details. I have jogged around the Truc Bach Lake in Hanoi where his plane went down. There is a monument by the lake commemorating the event.

I can't remember all of it now and I dismissed it as W mudslinging I happened to live in SC at that time and can't remember if I heard it or read it.
