You have got to be fucking kidding me.
During a July 1 washingtonpost.com online discussion, Washington Post staff writer Michael D. Shear asserted, “[Sen. John] McCain rarely talks about his time as a POW (though others sometimes do on his behalf.)” In fact, as Media Matters for America has documented, McCain has repeatedly highlighted his experience as a POW, even as he and the media have promoted the notion that he is reluctant to do so.
What? John McCain was a POW? Get the fuck outta here.
