Title: Profile In Treason: The Inconceivable Evil Of John McCain—“Man Of Blood”

There is no hatred more complete and no malevolence more fanatical than that held by the American political class for the American people. The commissar’s rage against the kulaks, the jihadist’s fury against the infidel, the inquisitor’s wrath against the unbeliever, all of this pales in comparison to the genocidal bloodlust Senators and Congressmen have against their own constituents. And even as they gleefully promote the outsourcing of jobs, the importation of cheap labor, and the ruthless extirpation of property, wealth and liberty, these shameless parasites demand their slaves die to export their filthy System all over the world.

The most contemptible and dangerous of these vermin is Senator John McCain. In a political career marked by near constant betrayal and hypocrisy, there are only two constants to his bloody career. The first is a passion for war, any war, for any reason, which can only be termed pathological. The second is the desire to replace the people of his own state and the voters of his own party.

Like a dying venomous snake, McCain is using his final moments to strike at President Trump and those who supported him.

In remarks gleefully repeated by the sociopathic controlled media, McCain simpered:

To fear the world we have organized and led for three-quarters of a century, to abandon the ideals we have advanced around the globe, to refuse the obligations of international leadership and our duty to remain ‘the last best hope of earth’ for the sake of some half-baked, spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history.

[Read John McCain’s Liberty Medal ceremony speech, Boston Globe, October 17, 2017]

It’s worth noting McCain gave his comments while accepting an award from…Joe Biden. Much like McCain’s “patriotism” consists of deconstructing the Historic American Nation itself, Biden poses as a champion of the “working class” because he rides Amtrak but supports “constant, unrelenting” immigration, outsourcing, anti-white racial preferences and endless, nihilistic wars. McCain and Biden, are, in all essentials, practically identical.

One aches to ask Senator McCain directly what “problem” he thinks will be more effectively “solved” by importing the Third World. National security? Health care? Collapsing wages? Rising inequality? Crumbling infrastructure?

McCain’s mumblings are practically self-discrediting. But as American journalists exist to serve power and suppress dissent it’s unlikely the Senator has been or will ever be asked to defend such ludicrous claims.

McCain draws a distinction between “nationalism” and “patriotism,” with the former being defined by the concrete realities of history and heritage and the latter formed by mysterious abstractions.

“We live in a land made of ideals, not blood and soil,” he explained. “We are the custodians of those ideals at home, and their champion abroad.”

These ideals, as is customary when they are invoked, are not defined. Yet given McCain’s tributes to the “immigrant’s dream,” the land which “reinvents itself,” and the current “international order,” his remarks are being hyped as a rebuke of “Trumpism” and celebrated by Leftist journalists who suddenly claim the right to define what is “conservatism” or “Republicanism” [John McCain just delivered a total and complete takedown of Trumpism, by Chris Cillizza, CNN, October 17, 2017]

McCain’s ideals would be unrecognizable, not only to the Founding Fathers, but to practically any other American generation in history. Would the Father of Our Country have countenanced endless interventionism? Would either Jefferson or Hamilton have recognized a moral imperative for self-annihilation? Would any Federalist or anti-Federalist celebrate the replacement of the very people who had just won independence from the British Empire?

McCain’s denunciation of “nationalism” is also selective. McCain is quite eager to defend the borders of other nations. “We are all Ukrainians,” he declared on one occasion [Senator John McCain: “We Are All Ukrainians, by Jay Newton-Small, Time, February 28, 2014]. “We are all Georgians” he pronounced on another.

It is only when it comes to America that McCain’s “patriotism” becomes abstract and imaginary. Indeed, it seems every people on earth has a right to “blood and soil” which must be safeguarded by American arms, except Americans themselves.

Even as this is written, Kurds and Iraqis are on the brink of war [The Kurdish War with Iraq, by Thomas Ricks, Foreign Policy, October 17, 2017]. If it erupts, once again, the tribal hatreds and border conflicts of peoples who should be of interest to us only in anthropology textbooks will be cause for the death of American soldiers.

The sacrifice of our military is framed as “leadership.” “That leadership has had its costs, but we have become incomparably powerful and wealthy as we did,” McCain gloats. And he is right, in speaking of his peers; he and his fellow parasites are indeed incomparably powerful and wealthy.

But such power and wealth does not trickle down to those he ostensibly represents. The wages of working Americans have stagnated for decades, and even skilled workers can barely earn a wage sufficient to support a family.

And “power?” The tyranny of George III that our forefathers rose against would be a glorious boon for ordinary Americans of today, as their lives, families, communities, and property are forfeit to the whims of unelected bureaucrats, publicly funded “activists,” or sadistic reporters eager to rouse a mob. McCain’s tribute to America’s “power” and “wealth” is reminiscent of an Ottoman sultan boasting about shared victories to the janissaries he’s kidnapped from Eastern Europe.

The democratic system McCain pledges Americans to defend is a form of government in which elected officials blatantly lie to their constituents and then taunt them at the very moment of betrayal. Consider McCain himself. He campaigned on repealing Obamacare, and then gleefully voted to save it [Mr. McCain Goes To Washington, by John Fund, National Review, July 30, 2017] He promised to “complete the danged fence” but instead has done his best to make sure Arizona ceases to be an American state in any meaningful sense.

One may disagree with monarchy or some other form of unelected leadership, but it seems vastly preferably to a system where political power is awarded to the most outrageous liar. Such a system should not be tolerated, let alone fought for.

Besides, the liberal international order McCain defends is nothing of the kind. The Western world is not free. [The Liberalism That Isn’t, by Costin Alamariu, Daily Caller, September 7, 2017] East Germany in the 1980s was in some ways more free than contemporary Germany is today: it would not have occurred to Erich Honecker to expose his subjects to mass sexual assault at the hands of Muslim invaders and then arrest anyone who protests. [Married couple sentenced for migrant critical Facebook post, by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, July 8, 2016]

The Occupation Government in Washington has presided over the Death of the West. The world order McCain defends is, quite explicitly, built on the dispossession of the European-Americans who actually created the American polity. If our civilization or country is to survive in any meaningful sense, that order must be destroyed.

And that means replacing the political class, the enemy collaborators, exemplified by the likes of Senator McCain. His warmongering against a nuclear armed Russia is unhinged. His desire to hurt our own nation is so unrelenting and energetic one wonders if he is working under duress or threat of blackmail. I almost hope so. To think he actually believes these ideas is a terrifying possibility.

It is not polite to speak ill of the terminally ill. Yet this cruel, murderous and thoroughly despicable character poses a threat not just to the existence of the American nation, but to the very lives of people all over the world.

I wish the Senator no harm. I only offer a desperate prayer in self-defense that his retirement will be forthcoming and his media megaphone removed.

The political life not just of our country, but of the world, must be rid of this Man of Blood, this sociopathic butcher—who, shuffling to his grave, seems determined to drag us all down with him.(2 images)

I commend you on your astute observation with your having and showing shrewdness in your innate ability to notice and understand something clearly….IN THIS CASE.

We agree then, ---- IN THIS CASE.

By the way, did you really fly missions over NVN? Or were you claiming to have POW friends imprisoned there? Or both?

Just wondering.

McCain with his Islamists in Libya one year before Benghazi, priming the pump for Hillary "What does it matter"?
This garbage is way off the topic you called to my attention for discussion here.

Your point to me was a futile effort to show a good reason that John McCain did something traitorous by collaborating with the enemy while he was a POW at the Hanoi Hilton. You have grossly failed in your attempt to do that. Consequently, changing your axis of attack shows extreme weakness in your ability to carry on an intelligent discussion. If you desire to communicate with me, you must stay on topic.

To stay on topic, you need to simply stop and imagine for a moment what it would be like for you to be able to think clearly….to concentrate and remember what you are discussing. Yes, these are some of the things you must learn to handle while you are trying to deal with your Cognitive Dysfunction.

It is extremely strange that you should be “just wondering” about this enough to ask your specific questions. Because of that, I am “just wondering” why I should even bother answering you since you have never believed anything I stated on the forum about my military career. Now, have you?

However, since I am so magnanimous and can be very generous or forgiving towards such a doubting Thomas skeptic who refuses to believe anything without his direct personal knowledge of an event….I will take time to graciously answer your questions.

As to your first question:

I participated in Operation Arc Light. [Click HERE for information on Operation Arc LIght] I did not participate in Operation Linebacker or Operation Linebacker II….I spent that year attending the Air Command and Staff College.
As to your second question:
I had one friend who was shot down in a B-52 over Hanoi who fortunately survived the shoot down only to have the misfortune of spending some time in the Hanoi Hilton. Before leaving Air Command and Staff College to spend a year tour in Thailand crewing on the AC-130 Spectre Gun Ship, I had the good fortune to serve as sponsor for another friend who was shot down in a F-4 and who as a returning POW was entering the Air Command and Staff College the year after me. I had served with both of these returning POWs in the B-58 Hustler at Grissom AFB.
You can chose to believe any of this you want to or continue to disbelieve anything I state about my military career. I really don’t GAS. I did have some pleasant memories reviewing the Operation Arc Light article and the videos while recalling the times I spent with my friends so many years ago and that was satisfying to me for the effort to answer your post.

Now, if you like, you can come join in my memories …

Denton said that he received food and medical treatment and that he was a loyal US gov employee, which is true. McCain said that he was a war criminal killing Vietnamese people, and that the Ho Chi Minh government was nice, which are lies.

You wonder what difference lying for the enemy makes?

On July 18, 1965, Denton was shot down in North Vietnam. He was captured by the North Vietnamese that day and he remained a prisoner of war for seven years and seven months, enduring years of solitary confinement and brutal mistreatment. Four of those years were spent in solitary confinement where he would spend day and night in a windowless 3-by-9-foot cell mostly in irons.

On May 2, 1966, as part of a propaganda campaign, the North Vietnamese arranged for Denton to be interviewed for television by a Japanese reporter. His appearance before the TV camera was scripted by the guards for him to say that he received food and medical treatment. That was a scripted lie he was forced to tell.

It was during this time before the TV camera that he blinked his eyes in Morse code the word “T-O-R-T-U-R-E” to show that he was appearing under duress and was being tortured. When asked about his views on the actions of the U.S. Government he had not been scripted to answer that question and “he strongly affirmed his government’s position, in defiance of his captors’ instructions. He then prepared himself for the torture session that followed.

Both Denton and McCain were tortured before they appeared on camera and tortured afterwards. Denton had an opportunity to make a patriotic statement because he was asked a question which he had not been scripted to answer. John McCain did not have that same opportunity. If asked the same question during the interview that Denton was asked, there is no way of knowing what McCain would have said.

Both men were tortured before and after the interviews and both men were given a script of lies to follow. Denton was afforded an impromptu opportunity to go off script when John McCain was not.

You don’t know what would have happened had Denton’s scripted statement and answers been given to McCain and McCain’s scripted statement and answers had been given to Denton and neither does anyone else. But you think that you are one uber-smart individual who can listen to different forced interviews and decide that Denton is a hero and McCain is an evil POS traitor. GET FUCKING REAL.

Denton spent almost eight years as a prisoner of war, suffering severe mistreatment and becoming the first U.S. military captive to be subjected to four years of solitary confinement. His book offers the true shocking details about his about that ordeal and is called, "When Hell was in Session."

Furthermore …

It has been reported and testified to that the North Vietnamese torture was so sufficiently brutal and ever prolonged that virtually every American POW so subjected was forced to make a statement of some kind at some time.[15] As one POW wrote of finally being forced to make an anti-American statement: "I had learned what we all learned over there: Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine."[13] Realizing this, the Americans' aim became to absorb as much torture as they could before giving in.[11] After making statements, the POWs would admit to each other what had happened, lest shame or guilt consume them or make them more vulnerable to additional North Vietnamese pressure.[11] Nevertheless, the POWs obsessed over what they had done, and would years after their release still be haunted by the "confessions" or other statements they had made.[17] As another POW later said, "To this day I get angry with myself. But we did the best we could. [We realize], over time, that we all fall short of what we aspire to be. And that is where forgiveness comes in. "[17]

So….Hot Shot….There were nearly 600 American POWs released. The North Vietnamese torture was so sufficiently brutal and ever prolonged that virtually every American POW so subjected was forced to make an anti-American statement of some kind at some time. Denton was forced to lie as was McCain also forced to lie….along with virtually every American POW.

Now, asshole….you are one ignorant SOB to think that you can unilaterally decide who among these nearly 600 American POWs that were forced to make an anti-American statement were lying traitors and who are heroes simply based on the aspects of their lives as you see them following their release.

You wonder what difference lying for the enemy makes?
Nah, I can only wonder what makes you so damned stupid.

McCain lied in his anti-American broadcasts. He's still blocking release of information on POW/MIA's.

Denton told the truth in his pro-American broadcast, and he's not the only POW to do so.

Of course.

I enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing. It brought back two pleasant memories.

First, I was on the both the receiving end and the pumping end of the KC-135 refueling boom many times. I was on the receiving end during my ten years in the B-58. Then I was on pumping end of the KC-135 during my final year of service awaiting retirement. The refueling squadron I was assigned to was based in Altus AFB Oklahoma but performed refueling support flying out of Eielson AFB Alaska for the RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft. And yes Sarah….”I really could see Russia out the window.”

Secondly, I had to hit a quick stop of the video at 3:48 when I saw the same 100-4 model of the red 1955 Austin Healey I had purchased new in Paris and shipped back to the states when my tour of duty in Europe was over.

Again, thanks …

Understanding truth and the need to illuminate the notion of truth is a simple role played in an intelligent person’s ordinary objective thought. This has long been established in our logical, philosophical and scientific theorization.

Acknowledging truth involves the concern for substantive background issues and the identification of the bearers of truth and good will. A person who has the innate ability to distinguish truth from other notions and call attention to that should not be challenged or chastised….they should be complimented.

You may now say: ”Thank you, Stone, for defending truth!”

Side bar note:

I had planned to take the five hour drive from Toul-Rosières AFB France over to watch portions of the “1955 24 Hours of Le Mans” to see the Austin Healey run, but a last minute situation change made it unable for me to make the trip. I all to soon learned that cancellation may have been a blessing when information about the historic crash began to filter out.

I had a ’58 100-6 red-over-black four seater later on at Grissom AFB and my aircraft commander had a black ’62 3000. He lived across the street and we would head out to fly and return from flying in formation.

Enough about the Austin Healey….thanks for triggering the memories.

The '58 4-speed 4-seater in red.

The '58 2-seater, red-over-black.

That model with Ice Blue and Ivory interior was ahead of its time. What a pussy wagon. Anyway, it shows the interior layout nicely.     : )

You and your Panamanian Senator both need to be deported to Aztlán!

The louvered hood in the top picture is customized.

The wheels in the second photo replaced the wire spokes which were a bitch to keep balanced.

I added four seat belts to the seats shown in the bottom photo. Those seat belts would of course be of no help in a roll over but they would be in a spin out.

I had only two kids at the time and we took a grand tour one summer from Grissom AFB through Gettysburg and on up to Niagara Falls and back with the top down all the time. Fun times …

Hey, I have a good idea for you.

Instead of continuing to take the abuse heaped on you, why don’t you do what Muslims do?

You may find it more gratifying and far less painful.

Just suggesting …

I am done with you for now on this thread….FUCK OFF.

The most contemptible and dangerous of these vermin is Senator John McCain. I

Not true. McLunatic is pretty damn despicable,but he wasn't a traitor until he became a POW and was suddenly no longer a Prince in the US Navy. For the first time in his life,he was suddenly no better,and most importanly,no better protected or treated than everyone else around him. The culture shock brought out the self-serving coward in him,and the ability to blackmail him over what he did as a POW was the nail in his coffin. Once a blackmailer starts to control you,they never quit until you are put in the ground. Over time,someone who is being blackmailed will allow their ego to come forward to justify their actions to themselves as the right thing to do because no one can live with self-hate.

PLEASE note this doesn't excuse what he did after he was released. If he had of had the courage to stand up on his hind legs and admit the pain and the threat of being crippled for life scared him into helping the NVA,most people could have probably came to forgive him. Continuing to do it is what is unforgivable,and especially since he was in no danger then and just doing it for personal power and wealth.

On the other hand,we have people like Senator William Fulbright,who willingly and knowingly provided the North Vietnamese communist government with American battle plans while serving as the Chairman of the Senate Armed Forced Committee. Fulbright was personally responsible for the deaths of thousands of American soldiers.

Not to mention President Roosevelt and his commie cousin/wife and their incestuous relationship with their "kindly Uncle Joe".

Compared to them,McLunatic is a mere shoplifter.

I never cared much for McCain... But if he's aggravating these neo-nazi pinheads, then he must be doing something right.

If you mean that,you are a fool.

You asked him and he answered.

I asked him and he answered, then he concluded with another question, which I answered.

His humble reply was very satisfying. Thanks...

By posting this video out of context you are attempting by insinuation to show that when he was a POW, McCain was a “Hanoi Hilton songbird” who collaborated with the enemy.

Well,he WAS.

You however show no evidence to back up this claim which is strongly contradicted by accounts from interviews with other POWs. Robert Timberg interviewed many POWs who served with McCain, said there's no evidence that he ever collaborated with the North Vietnamese. "I've never known of any occasion in which Sen. McCain provided the North Vietnamese with anything of value," Timberg said.

There was plenty of evidence during the war,but it was suppressed because his daddy was one of the most senior Admirals in the Navy,and the morale problem it would have created.

Also,more than one former POW has stated since they were released that they all had a "Gentleman's Agreement" to not divulge the names of any POW's the collaborated with the enemy to help preserve the honor of the officer corps.

Only ONE enlisted POW was held in Hanoi,a sailor that fell off the deck of a carrier and rescued by a NVN fishing boat.

From the detailed interrogations of the POWs and a complete analysis of all information at hand, eight Vietnam POWs were charged with collaborating with the enemy while imprisoned. They had made antiwar broadcasts, cooperated with their captors and had written letters condemning the conflict. Fellow prisoners called them traitors and communists, and named them the “Peace Committee.” Formal military charges against the eight were filed after their release.

How many of them were officers,and how many were enlisted swine?

How many of them had daddies that were flag rank officers?

Names and ranks,please.
