Sniper Fire II

Apparently, being a simple prisoner of war was not sufficient for Senator McCain.

Despite having written and spoken about his POW times extensively in years past, a new chapter has emerged since he began running for President- which I am calling Sniper Fire II.

Now it seems that JMac also had a moment of Christian fellowship in his POW camp, when a guard came in, loosened his bonds, and drew a cross in the dirt with his foot.   The POW and his newfound Christian friend then celebrated some moments of silence together.   The guard then erased the cross with his foot, and left the cell, locking the door behind him.

What a great story!   Such a profound and moving message of survival and perseverance- odd that it did not see the light of day for 40 years, huh?

Well, actually, it did- in the The Gulag Archipelago, by the recently-deceased Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn.

Why Sniper Fire II?   Obviously, this ships-passing-in-the-night guard, or "gun guard" as JMac called him, ultimately got promoted to First Sniper, was assigned to Bosnia, and was the very same person shooting at Hillary and Chelsea on the airport tarmac in 1996.
