When I hear people lambaste a politician, I generally assume that they have evidence to back up their accusations. Otherwise, you look like a partisan hack, who's trying to sway public opinion.
I would think that Ross Perot would offer up such evidence when he makes the following claims:
Perot's real problem with McCain is that he believes the senator hushed up evidence that live POWs were left behind in Vietnam and even transferred to the Soviet Union for human experimentation, a charge Perot says he heard from a senior Vietnamese official in the 1980s. "There's evidence, evidence, evidence," Perot claims. "McCain was adamant about shutting down anything to do with recovering POWs."
This article came out in January of this year. To date, we've seen nothing about "evidence, evidence, evidence" from Perot.
Personally, if such evidence existed, and McCain did indeed suppress any investigations about recovering POW's, live or not, I think I wouldn't vote for him. Our men and women are that important to me. I don't allow politics to play into recovering people who've sacrificed so much and suffered greatly.
I couldn't in good conscience vote for McCain if he did such a thing.
But, here we are, 6 months later, and where's the evidence that Perot talks about? I haven't seen a shred.
