McCain said,"If I had been told by the Pentagon that I couldn't visit those troops, and I was there and wanted to be there, I guarantee you, there would have been a seismic event,"
Well, If the PENTAGON says "NO", you can bet you will NOT be allowed anywhere near the wounded soldiers. How could an ex-soldier, ex-air pilot, ex-POW think the Military are going to allow you, no matter who you are, to get anywhere close to the wounded soldiers on an American Military base in another country when the orders came from the Pentagon itself?
Just who is John McCain kidding? What makes him think he go and do the opposite of what the Pentagon ordered? Is John McCain having a Bush moment?
Without any proper authorization, does anyone believe that they can 'side--step' the Pentagon orders? Without the proper authorization does anyone believe that a civilian can just go on base and go anywhere they want and not follow the guide lines as to where they can and cannot go?
I believe the American US Citizen is too smart to fall for that one.
Remember, those wounded soldiers are in a military hospital on a military base in GERMANY and It is very ARROGANT for John McCain to have said those words, "If I had been told by the Pentagon that I couldn't visit those troops, and I was there and wanted to be there, I guarantee you, there would have been a seismic event,"And I guess that the Military on base will 'IGNORE WHAT THE PENTAGON ORDERS WERE.' Yeah, when-pigs-fly!
It seems that there is a different set of rules regarding following the orders of the Pentagon as well as the Military Commanders on base for the Republican party politicians.
While everyone else would be put under Military arrest or kicked off of the base for trying to cause trouble on Base, the Republicans seem to think that they can do as the Republicans please on the base whether the Pentagon allowed it or NOT!!!!
I guess the Pentagon and Military enjoy having their orders ignored by the Republican Party.
