Anyone that can launch and land a high performance jet aircraft on a short moving little target in the middle of the deep ocean day or night automatically earns my respect. That he served in the most unpopular foreign war we've ever commanded our fellow Americans to participate in when the popular msm driven sentiment was to spit on those that returned with their very lives also earns my respect.
I will not allow his politics, much of which I disagreed with to erase my respect of him and his service to this great country. So RIP John McCain, I hope you truely believed and that HE knew you....
