Apples And Trees...

As the Democrats' intramurals finally wind down, the press is FINALLY beginning to snoop around and take a peek into this cipher called John McCain.
Admiral-to-be jumped ship to wed John McCain's mom
So, just as we looked at Joe Kennedy's shady dealings when JFK, RFK and all the FK's were running for office, and we had the chance to look at Daddy Bush's smarmy dealings, and Sen. Prescott Bush's Nazi ties, now's the opportunity to look at the guiding lights in McCain's background.
So far, we see that a young Pop McCain went AWOL to get married and, as a connected Admiral's son himself, merely got a slap on the wrists. Of course, you or I would have ended up in the brig, facing serious charges, only dreaming of our honeymoon. Then Pop scapegoats his wife as soon as a Navy report makes him look none too good. Nice guy.
Fairly minor stuff, of course. Just the rights of the privileged. But, still unbecoming a "maverick."
We can only assume... that there's more to come.
