Thanks, Nords, for bringing up the good point that others at Hanoi Hilton would "know."
My friend's father was in the Bataan Death March during WWII, a POW for 3 years, 6'4" and 86 lbs. when released (causing him to be hospitalized like 2 years). He wrote the very long poem about how one of his "buddies" sold him out for a bowl of rice. So, I agree with you...the others at the Hanoi Hilton would know.
I'm going to make it my point to read his biography now. Thanks.
And, yeah...as a woman speaking, I can see how McCain could have been a womanizer when he was young. He was awfully good looking (women are pigs, too, you know).
