For the past two months, a major American magazine and an allied news
service
have been engaged in a legal battle with the United States Navy over
records
that they believe show that John McCain once was involved in an
automobile
accident that injured or, perhaps, killed another individual.

Vanity Fair magazine and the National Security News Service claim to
have
knowledge "developed from first-hand sources" of a car crash that
involved
then-Lt. McCain at the main gate of a Virginia naval base in 1964,
according to
legal filings. The incident has been largely, if not entirely, kept
from the
public. And in documents suing the Navy to release pertinent
information,
lawyers for the NS News Service allege that a cover-up may be at play.

Laughable and desperate.

Are they also investigating the death of Mary Jo Kopechne? How about
Marilyn Monroe, Carolyn Bessette and Lauren Bessete?



I don't see the Democrats being desperate, but the Republicans sure are.

That horrific accident with Ms. Kopechne ended Teddy's run for higher
office. If McCain has a similar incident in his background, it ought to
disqualify him, too.


It should have ended Teddy's career in public office with a stint in
Mass.'s State Pen. for 5 to 10 years.
