| Former POW says McCain is "not cut out to be President" |

http://therealmccain.com/butler
John McCain has been exploiting his prisoner
of war experience every chance he gets. He
has used this story to justify everything
from not knowing how many homes he has to his
healthcare plan to his marital infidelities
to his taste in music. The McCain campaign is
even using his POW story in paid ads. But now
a veteran who was a prisoner with McCain in
Vietnam is explaining loud and clear that
being a POW does not qualify McCain to lead
our country.
We are sure this video will draw an onslaught
of right-wing attacks, but we bring it to you
because it is our job to continue to convey
the truth together and give these issues
national attention. As Dr. Butler has said,
McCain does not have the temperament to have
his finger near the red button. Get this
video to everyone you know—friends, family
members, coworkers, and especially those who
don't share your political views. The video
is designed to reach them. Get it on your
social networking sites like Digg. And get it
to every blog, newspaper, and TV station that
has ever overplayed McCain's POW story. It is
time to fight back with truth!
The mainstream press has already begun to
call out McCain for overusing his POW story.
And it's cut across all political
persuasions. * "Whether he's deflecting
criticism over his health-care plan or
mocking a tribute to the Woodstock music
festival, Senator John McCain has a trump
card: the Hanoi Hilton. — Edwin Chen,
Bloomberg * "Noun, Verb, POW" — Andrew
Sullivan, The Atlantic Monthly * "The McCain
campaign's constant invocation of the
candidate's POW past is weird bordering on
irrational..." — Ana Marie Cox, TIME * "I
think they are going to it way too many
times." — Howard Fineman, Newsweek
Remember how Joe Biden got the press to refer
to Rudy Giuliani as "A noun, a verb, and
9/11"? Well, let's actually take Andrew
Sullivan's lead here and get the media to
boil McCain down to a similar phrase: "A
noun, a verb, and POW." Considering how often
the McCain campaign invokes his POW story,
isn't that what they're already doing?

without the weird video artifacts that are in
this one:

Dr. Phillip Butler knew McCain as a fellow
POW. Watch and listen!
