JFC, Google is hard.


It is hard for me indeed. I am old and not good with technology. I also don't really know how to search in google in an optimal way.

What's the big deal anyway?

Just because he was a POW doesn't make him some untouchable saint like figure.


This is my thought, too. Yea it's kind of nasty to make fun of someone for being captured, but just because someone has been captured by an enemy, this fact alone does not make him a hero.

Trump just didn't phrase it properly.

I'm older than you and it isn't difficult for me. Age is not an excuse.

As others should. McCain was one of the loudest and most renowned voices when it came bombing half a dozen countries in the last 20-30 years. It's people like him why we wasted trillions invading Iraq, & other countries and shifting that debt burden on regular Americans. It's people like him why we bombed plebs in the 3rd world on very little evidence of wrong doing half the time.

Just because he was a POW doesn't make him some untouchable saint like figure. The criticism from Trump was dumb but the sentiment is right.

He was part of the cabal that did this during the gulf war:

I don't consider McCain a saint. There's a ton of shit he's done (like the above) that I don't agree with. The point was that McCain didn't start the war of words with Trump, like Bobb claimed.

Why not?

Seems appropriate when so much of the country in 'We were always at war with east Asia' fashion are sucking off McCain just because he was critical of Trump.

I am not good with technology and don't know how to search in google optimally. What is your response to this?

Also, what's the big fucking deal? Explain to me. The worst thing you probably have to do is do some googling for me and then post a link here. Wow, such a huge inconvenience. Another thing you can very, very easily accomplish is simply to ignore me. But somehow you can't stay away from me.

Stop making excuses and take it on yourself to learn.

I did try to learn but I am still not very good at it.

Anyway, I much prefer asking other people, instead of googling. It's more interactive and helps me learn better.

It's not my job to search for stuff for you. About all I do at this point as far as JSP goes is to shitpost, and to put up links when I am making my own point. The utter lack of moderation on this forum has effectively stripped any desire to do more than that from me.
