Recently, I finished reading this explosive Rolling Stone piece on John McCain by Tim Dickinson. This article comprehensively outlines a side of McCain that his adoring fans in the MSM have never bothered to report on, or even look into. Not all in the blogosphere have received this article well, but it certainly has its defenders. I'm of the mind that the article is fair. Dickinson certainly is one-sided in his portrayal of McCain, however he sources everything and even has numerous direct quotes from McCain's associates of the past and present (most importantly a number of his fellow POWs at the Hanoi Hilton). I strongly recommend that you give this article a read. Definitely approach it with a grain of salt, as it is quite one-sided. However, it's important to note that until recently the MSM has only ever said positive things about McCain; don't ever forget that everyone has a dark side. Yes, that does include Obama and the Democrats. After all, we're all human!
