I am not a Republican nor am I a big fan of Senator McCain. But he IS an American hero for his war record and it is absurd that anyone wants to criticize him while he is fighting cancer.

Benedict Arnold WAS 'an American hero for his war record' though his choices led him to be ostracized. McCain's warmongering and coordination with ISIS backed rebels should not be forgotten because of his once decorated past. Make no mistake, if any private citizen even had conversations with any of the terrorists that he propped up, they would never again have a free day.

Coming from a Republican, I have long considered McCain to be a loose cannon. However, that does not take away from his war record, and I certainly wouldn't kick the man while he is down .... on what looks like his last rodeo.
