From the always delightful Gawker.com: Queerty tracked down what may be McCain's first personal account of his captivity and torture, for US News & World Report in May of 1973. They posted it online in January, but maybe it's because we're all so familiar with his tale at this point that no one noticed, until now, the bit where he says all his captors were homosexuals who got off on whipping him. No, that is not made up.

John: "Now I don't hate them any more—not these particular guys. I hate and detest the leaders. Some guards would just come in and do their job. When they were told to beat you they would come in and do it. Some seemed to get a big bang out of it. A lot of them were homosexual, although never toward us. Some, who were pretty damned sadistic, seemed to get a big thrill out of the beatings."

"A lot of them were homosexual"

One has to wonder what that definitive statement is based on.

Especially since they were never homosexual "toward" the POWs.

Personally, I prefer untoward homosexuals.

Apparently, the only thing the homosexual guards did to McCain was draw crosses in the dirt and then sell the story to a Russian anarchist to write about.

Some seemed to get a big bang out of it. A lot of them were homosexual, although never toward us. Some, who were pretty damned sadistic, seemed to get a big thrill out of the beatings.

Is there a difference between a "big bang" and a "big thrill"?

Which one is more homosexual?

Okay. What would John McCain's and Barack Obama's screen names be if they were on Manhunt?

McCain would be CripVet. His pic would be from the 60s, when he was still hot. His profile would talk a lot about discreet and NSA.

Bama would be HotBlkSen. "Partnered" and "3some" would figure prominently.

Roscoe, I see you've given this quite a bit of thought.

Why do I get the feeling McCain would list his size as "average"?

All his specs would say "Ask me." He'd need to meet at "Your Place."

I was wondering if the Manhunt contribution would come back and bite them in the ass. The Log Cabin republicans have been relatively quiet so far.

McCain claims to be "Versatile." More like he Flip-flops right onto his belly.

I think Michelle and Cindy are more likely to be listed - looking for bottoms.

They've worn these two out.

Why would McCain be on Manhunt when he already has Lieberman?
