Leonidas:

First, the post was not faulting McCain for his POW/military experiences. It was faulting him for not condemming those who are slandering his opponent as they slandered his POW experiences.

Second, and more to your point, as Joe Biden so aptly said today,
"The times require more than a good soldier, they require a wise leader,"

Faulting the McCain campaign for emphasizing the event which best demonstrates his strength of character is silly. Character is important and McCain showed it under some pretty extreme conditions, any campaign in their right mind would emphasize this if they had the history behind their man to do so. There is more to McCain than just being a POW, of coursse, and discussion of policy positions and such is fair game, but might as well ask Obama not to make speeches that highlight his oratorical skills, or to dress in suits that emphasize his good looks as to ask McCain not to emphasize his strengths. I find such criticisms of the candidates for them using their best qualities to be totally unfounded.
