The swiftboat vets took a cheap shot at Kerry....and it worked, somewhat...thank's to the media.

This guy is trying the same thing...wondering if the media will pick it up and run with it.

It's standard VFW conversation.

It's not going to go anywhere. This report is from the primary, and it didn't go anywhere. The guy has tried it against McCain in previous elections, and it didn't go anywhere.

There are people out there who will not let go of the idea that there are POWs still held in Vietnam, even though almost no one else believes it. I personally do not think it is true.

The problem is when you have 2 idiots, McCain and Kerry, headup the the investigation of POW's you're in trouble. That was such a superficial investigation it wasn't funny. McCain and Kerry got a couple of nice little photo ops back then and that was it.

Killerweed and Dutch, do you think there are still POWs in Vietnam? I personally don't think so, but I was wondering what you thought. I definitely agree that no American should ever be abandoned and there is no excuse for being sloppy about following up any leads.

I don't think there are any living POW's any more. Could be. There was one a couple years ago that was found but he had basically defected. Was fedup with the US. There was always rumours that a bunch were shipped by train to Russia. But it still doesn't mean we should give up on them.

not that i believe this guy or not.

but this must be their site

Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain (http://www.vietnamveteransagainstjohnmccain.com/)

and one particular video is really interesting to me, just go down to the congressional hearing video, there are some interesting things said and McCain's reactions seem interestingly "mad"
