McCain vs. O'Bama

Compare/contrast John McCain's experience as a Naval Officer/Congressman/Senator vs. Barry O'Bama's experience as a "Community Organizer"/Senator.

From Flopping Aces.

41 years ago today, a missile accidentally fired from an aircraft on the deck of the USS Forrestal. It flew across the flight deck, slammed into another plane, detonated that aircraft, its fuel, and its weapons. Shrapnel from that explosion punctured a dozen other aircraft that were waiting at the aft end of the ship-fully fueled and loaded with bombs for a massive airstrike. In the cockpit of the one of those planes-sitting right next to the plane that had accidentally launched the first missile, was John McCain. Less that 2 seconds after that first missile launched, the entire flight deck was an inferno. Pilots who had been strapped into their planes waiting for their turn to launch were trapped and surrounded by burning jet fuel, launching missiles, a hailstorm of shrapnel, and thousands of pounds of bombs.

John McCain unstrapped himself, climbed out on the nose of his A4 Skyhawk plane, jumped, and rolled through burning jet fuel. On his way to safety, some of the bombs on the burning planes began to explode, and he was knocked down by the shockwaves and by shrapnel piercing his body.

The crew and airwing of the USS Forrestal who were there that day deserve to have this day remembered and honored. That includes Senator John McCain.




134 men died that day. The ship almost sank. John McCain was in the thick of it and volunteered for duty on another carrier. Three months later, he was shot down. He spent 5 1/2 years in a Vietnamese prison camp, much of it in solitary confinement.

Barry O'Bama (when he grew up) made speeches (and whatever "Community Organizers" do) and took drugs, all the while hating his country.

Barry O'Bama is a complete joke. If he was white, people would be able to see it.

  1. I can't wait to hear how being a community organizer is good preparation for being Leader of the Free World.
