Default Re: McCain's Underwhelming Acceptance Speech!

UH OH Wrong forum. Oh well, I'm here and I might as well say that I was not impressed at all. He doesn't even READ his speech well. It was so obvious. Had to throw in that "son of an admiral", too. SO WHAT? My dear father-in-law received the bronze star, purple heart, and an air medal. He was shot down, he saved a fellow soldiers life from a burning aircraft. He was a POW for over a year. Did he feel he was better than others because of this? Never. NEVER NEVER! He felt he did his job and that was all. Never, ever did he boast or talk about his experience. I only knew he could never get in a plane. I feel McCain was boasting of his war experience!! HA! He is grasping at all the wrong straws! His self-boasting actually turned me off,BIG TIME!!
