Excellent! I love this guy, and never saw him until today. But I read his stuff all the time! Extremely intelligent man, and he gets complicated points across very simply. He's very "listenable" and "readable", that's half the battle for those of us on the more complicated side who have more complicated arguements as opposed to rightwing soundbites: "Guns, Gays, & Religion".

Big Dad, Agree on all accounts. For my money he is the best progressive blogger alive.

Every person in the country should watch this. I also think the fact that McCain was a POW creates a sympathy myth of a sort, causing main stream media to fawn, and then restrain from asking the tough questions and reporting on his gafts and flip flops. This must stop.
Thank you, Hot Potato Mash!

Exactly what did he do in Vietnam, besides being caught? Is there any info on this?

Also, I always wonder...are Glen & Robert Greenwald related? Robert Greenwald has those great BraveNewFilms, right?

Well Big Dan, I'm not sure what else he did in Vietnam but we do know when he came home he would cheat on his wife after she was in a major car accident and then leave her for his super rich mistress. I think that's what the GOP means when they talk about honor.
Also, I don't think the Greenwalds are related.
