[quote=marion]DWCAP, a decent, family man does NOT leave a crippled wife. She was a model or former model when he married her, and he left because the horrible car accident she was involved in rendered her “ugly”. His reasons for leaving should be obvious by virtue of who he cheated on her with and subsequently married: Blonde, statuesque, WEALTHY Cindy. An exact replica of “Barbie”.
McCain has as much character and integrity as a street rat. And that’s not to say that some of the dems are any better.[/quote]
I’m worried about McCain myself, but I think ascribing the divorce to his first wife’s accident when the woman herself claims otherwise is a bit unfair. Not to mention that McCain divorced her 17 YEARS! after he returned to find her crippled.
Now he may have left his first wife because she wasn’t young any more, or he hit his midlife crisis, and having an affair and leaving his wife for some other woman doesn’t make him a decent guy, but let’s try to stick to reality without trumping things up.

June 16, 2008 at 12:15 PM #223229atrParticipantOkay, I’m not defending McCain per se, (I admire him on some levels, but I am not voting for him) but I think that marriage is a pretty complicated thing, and McCain and his first wife had a pretty unusual set of circumstances to deal with. Military life is not simple in the best of times, and add a horrific car crash and 5 years as a POW to the mix, and WOW–you have a hot mess.
Plenty of politicians have done things that don’t qualify them to be paragons of virtue. Hell, I’ve done things that don’t qualify ME to be a paragon of virtue. I just don’t believe that the circumstances of a divorce are one of the more important issues when considering whether someone would make a good president or not.
Marion, I don’t believe that ad hominem attacks are the best way of picking your candidate or belittling someone else’s. Furthermore, we just can’t truly know what goes on in someone else’s marriage. Can we draw extreme conclusions about you or anyone else who has been divorced at some point? Would that be fair or even accurate? I think not.

Now Marion……….you don’t have one bit of first-hand knowledge about any of that stuff you just posted. I’m not for McCain or Obama but slamming a war hero who spent a long time as a prisoner in Vietnam just rubs me wrong. You’ve called him senile, an old fogey, etc and I would bet some hard money that you’ve never met McCain or had a conversation with him. Come on now…………don’t you think that if someone attacked your idol, B.O., the way you’ve been attacking McCain on this forum, that you would be climbing the walls and screaming? Lighten up. π
