::sigh:: well I don't wanna go look up what Gruss said exactly. If you felt like Gruss was being disrespectful perhaps you have a small point. But in a world where John Kerry gets swiftboated and Max Cleland is called unpatriotic I think you are being a bit thin-skinned about it. And yes, I do realize that McCain denounced the Cleland ad, to his credit.
I am merely saying that I appreciate the man's love of country but I don't think his wartime experiences make him more qualified to lead than say Tim or Hatton. Perhaps they make him less so as they were not confined during their service. McCain may be superbly qualified in other ways but the service itself not the trump card the Republicans seem to want it to be. And for the record I cringed when Kerry harped on his too.
