did I hear correctly the other day that grumpymcinsane admitted he was responsible for the Forrestal
fire?

it was several days ago, at some town hall meeting, and an older gentleman questioned him directly about it, and he said, "yes it was my plane"

should we make a big deal out of that???

1. No. There's a lot of dirt in McCain's military service - but this one is not it
I have my own doubts about the official story and the aftermath, but honestly, it's insulting to the sailors and airmen who lost their lives that day to use this as a political football. There's more dirt on McCain out there that quite frankly, will stick.

4. Not his plane which released the missile
but his was the one that was hit, sheering off the tail and releasing fuel. McCain got out across his planes nose.

The other details are not as kind to Grumpy McStallin', check theRolling Stone article.
