I've tried to improve the consistency of the citing in the article, but more remains to be done with that and more. That, and I moved excessive detail in the 2008 campaign section to the subarticle that deals with that. I merged the 'Political positions' material into the subarticle that already deals with I merged the 'Controversies' section into the article's mainline sections, as is currently being done for many political figures in this case the Keating Five material clearly belonged in the Senate sections, while the various controversial remarks clearly belonged in a new section dealing with his temperment, public image and persona. I merged the 'Personal life' section into the flow of the article's mainline sections, as McCain is a figure whose personal life changes are inextricably woven into his military and political life. I added a lot of biographical detail that had previously been missing, from early life all the way through his recovery from the Keating Five scandal (and aim to keep going). As a proud military veteran and son of a Vietnam Vet these words neither reflect my or the network’s feelings about Senator McCain, or his remarkable service and sacrifice to this country.I realize that I never made note here that I began a major reworking and improvement of the article starting on 8 November 2007. “I regret I did not catch this remark, as it should have been challenged. At the time, I had the control room in my ear telling me to wrap the segment, and did not hear the comment,” he tweeted. “This morning on a show I was hosting, a guest made a very false and derogatory remark about Senator John McCain. Payne issued an apology on Thursday, saying he “did not catch this remark” immediately during the show. McInerny isn’t fit to kiss his shoes,” added author Kurt Eichenwald, addressing his comment to McCain’s daughter, who did not comment on McInerney but slammed Haspel’s nomination. He even used the ‘name’ from an anonymous 2008 poster. “To A horrific man, Thomas McInerney, is spreading the lie on that your father cooperated under torture. Don’t tell me not to question the patriotism of people who talk like this,” wrote Tom Nichols, a professor at the Naval War College. “A retired USAF three-star general, Thomas McInerney - a birther crank - just referred to former POW John McCain as ‘Songbird John’ on FOX Business. McInerney was quickly attacked on Twitter for his comments on Wednesday night’s show. The Senate should exercise its duty of advice and consent and reject this nomination.” Her refusal to acknowledge torture’s immorality is disqualifying. Haspel’s role in overseeing the use of torture by Americans is disturbing. “I believe Gina Haspel is a patriot who loves our country and has devoted her professional life to its service and defense,” he said. In a statement, he praised Haspel but explained his reasons for not supporting her. There is no evidence that McCain, a Navy pilot who was tortured in captivity during the war, ever cooperated with the enemy. McCain remained at home in Arizona battling brain cancer as Wednesday’s debate on Haspel’s nomination turned to the past use of enhanced interrogation techniques, now banned, that Trump has suggested perhaps should return. And if we have to use them to save a million American lives, we will do whatever we have to.” “The fact is those methods can work, and they are effective, as former Vice President Cheney said. Thomas McInerney said on the show “Making Money” on Fox Business during a discussion with host Charles Payne. That’s why they call him ‘Songbird John,’ ” retired Air Force Lt. The fact is, is John McCain - it worked on John. “Well she can’t use it anymore because we have determined in Congress that it’s not legal. The tasteless remark followed McCain’s statement that he would vote against President Trump’s nominee to head up the CIA, Gina Haspel, because he feared she would revive the harsh interrogations methods used to fight al Qaeda. John McCain cracked under torture while he was held prisoner in Vietnam - and called that proof that torture works. The utter idiocy of 'Liz Cheney for president'Ī military analyst came under fire Thursday for saying on Fox Business that ailing Sen.
