Cannot find a place to send a message to Cavuto. Will you pass along a message telling him that Gasperino is a true downer. Every time he is on any Fox show, I start feeling depressed.

Western Civilization is under a coordinated attack from every other belief system in the world.

Unconscionable!!!

IT WOULD BE A MISTAKE TO GIVE THE SEN TH MEDAL OF HONOR TtHERE WERE OTHERS IN HANOI THAT DID MORE FOR THEIR FELLOW PRISONERS THAN JOHN AND IT WOULD BE AN INSULT TO THEM TO GIVE TO THE SEN BECAUSE HE HAD A MORE WELL KNOWN NAME.WHAT HE DID WAS REALLY GOOD BUT NOT THE BEST OF THOSE THAT HELPED THEIR FELLOW INMATES.

Sorry. I disagree. Mr. McCain called Trump supporters crazy. He constantly attacked Trump and other republicans. McCain made a career out of attacking republicans and the corrupt liberal news praised him in their newspapers and put him on their biased news shows. McCain voted NO twice on repealing Obamacare. But he campaigned for reelection promising he would repeal it. He lied. McCain was part of the gang of eight supporting amnesty for illegal aliens. No Medal of Honor.

I see the comments here on "why" John McCain doesn’t deserve the Medal of Honor and I agree. But…my issue is with the basic fact that you threw out your emotional diatribe without even a basic understanding of how the MOH is awarded. The President has no say in the process (at least not in the official capacity). CONGRESS awards the MOH, hence the "Congressional Medal of Honor." Why is it so difficult to look into something before embarrassing yourself?

The MOH is not a political tool used for mending relationships. It’s for a specific act of gallantry that normally ends in death. The mere suggestion that it be used inappropriately is something that I’d bet would bother a great many people. Even suggesting it is inappropriate.

A “ war hero” doesn’t finish 894th out of 899 and still get stationed at a Navy champagne unit and promoted ahead of all but two of his 898 other classmates.

A “war hero” doesn’t crash three U.S. Navy jets out of sheer incompetence and ineptitude, including two during non-combat training sessions.

A “war hero” doesn’t get written up on drunk-and-disorderly, fraternization, disobeying orders, and insubordination charges more than two dozen times in less than three years.

A “war hero” doesn’t get promoted to squadron commander of the air field named after his own grandfather immediately after crashing his third airplane. A “war hero” doesn’t have all the military records that cover his time in Vietnam and all disciplinary actions against him censored and sealed “as a matte r of national security.” A “war hero” doesn’t get 28 medals awarded all after-the-fact “for bravery” for no other reason than being shot down and captured and then go on a celebrity public relations tour because he’s the son of two acclaimed Navy admirals. A “war hero” doesn’t repeatedly cheat on the wife who’s back in the states waiting for him, and then cheat on her more when he returns to the states, and then divorce and abandon her.

A “war hero” doesn’t systematically vote against every single pay and benefit increase for military and veterans throughout his entire political career, all the while claiming to be “the soldier’s Congressman,” and then take credit for the passage of a G.I. benefits bill he that voted AGAINST. A “war hero” McCain III lost jet number one in 1958 when he plunged into Corpus Christi Bay while practicing landings. He was knocked unconscious by the impact coming to as the plane settled to the bottom. McCain’s second crash occurred while he was deployed in the Mediterranean. “Flying too low over the Iberian Peninsula,” Timberg wrote, “he took out some power lines [reminiscent of the 1998 incident in which a Marine Corps jet sliced through the cables of a gondola at an Italian ski resort, killing 20] which led to a spate of newspaper stories in which he was predictably identified as the son of an admiral.”

McCain’s third crash three occurred when he was returning from flying a Navy trainer solo to Philadelphia for an Army-Navy football game. Timberg reported that McCain radioed, “I’ve got a flameout” and went through standard relight procedures three times before ejecting at one thousand feet. McCain landed on a deserted beach moments before the plane slammed into a clump of trees. McCain’s fifth loss happened during his 23rd mission over North Vietnam on Oct. 26, 1967, when McCain’s A-4 Skyhawk was shot down by a surface-to-air missile. McCain ejected from the plane breaking both arms an d a leg in the process and subsequently parachuted into Truc Bach Lake near Hanoi. For 23 combat missions (an estimated 20 hours over enemy territory), the U.S. Navy awarded McCain a Silver Star, a Legion of Merit for Valor, a Distinguished Flying Cross, three Bronze Stars, two Commendation medals plus two Purple Hearts and a dozen service medals. “McCain had roughly 20 hours in combat,” explains Bill Bell, a veteran of Vietnam and former chief of the U.S. Office for POW/MIA Affairs — the first official U.S. representative in Vietnam since the 1973 fall of Saigon. “Since McCain got 28 medals,” Bell continues, “that equals out to about a medal-and-a-half for each hour he spent in combat. There were infantry guys — grunts on the ground — who had more than 7,000 hours in combat and I can tell you that there were times and situations where I’m sure a prison cell would have looked pretty good to them by comparison."”

I can’t believe that someone hasn’t mentioned the several comments pointing out that the President has no power to decide who gets the Medal of Honor and that Liz hasn’t modified her otherwise good column accordingly. Please, someone, tell her so she doesn’t continue to embarrass herself with this one case of ignorance.

Re your latest piece on Fox, could not agree more! Advice to all men: When you go on a date with a woman, bring an eyewitness…and/or wear a body cam. This craziness from the control-freak Dems is just getting started. As is happening right before our eyes, lives getting wiped out in a nanosecond is no joke. As a man with two brothers, two sons and four grandsons, I say stay alert and protect yourselves.

Think you need to look up the parameters of receiving the medal of honor entails. If we go by what you are saying, everyone that was a POW should get the medal of honor. Including Bergdahl.

Great posts and love catching you on FOX. Thank you for helping MAGA!

Oh that I should be so disciplined with my words on FB.

Enjoy your appearances on Fox business

No apologies necessary, always good to hear your commentary.

Thank You !🇺🇸

Facts:

In April, California issued over 1 million drivers licenses to illegal aliens

Last month California DMV reported it “mistakenly” registered 24,500 voters who were not eligible to vote

California has 11 counties with more registered voters than voting age citizens

Still waiting on a single Democratic representative to condemn the harassment of the opposing party’s officials in public.

Kudos to Rep. Scalise for going high. https://t.co/lxf618wkdA
