John McCain and the "Fringe Veterans"

As a veteran, I was asked if I would vote for John McCain. I said I had heard a lot of good things about the man in the press, but I had heard other things that made me wonder. Anyway I voted for Alan Keyes, but just to give you some idea on whats out there check this out. It outlines an attack on so called "Fringe Veterans" by the media, really makes you wonder.
""Senator McCain has abandoned the veterans. He came home from Vietnam and forgot us."

No other statement or quotation has caused such controversy in the 2000 presidential campaign. And no other single event was more mis-reported and mis-analyzed than Army Veteran Thomas Burch's analysis of McCain's record at a George W. Bush rally in South Carolina on Feb. 3. And in the aftermath of the South Carolina GOP Primary, no other incident better illustrates the mainstream media's pack mentality that has boosted McCain's candidacy."
