yeah. my bad. after reading about one screwed up flight after another, i 
imposed that reading on that passage, particularly since, as you note, he 
didn't bother to try to help his mates *and* he seemed certain that the 
crash would spell the end of his career.

whoever said too bad this is news now... yeah. though I'm sure plenty of 
people have covered it, yes? it's just that it never made it to mainstream 
pubs? does anyone know if this history has been widely known? I mean, with 
Rove as his arch-enemy at one point, you'd think all of this would have 
been dredged up at some point.

by the way, what does "Mac Churian" mean in reference to the guy. I get the 
movie ref, but what does it have to do with anything about McCain other 
than a way to mock his name?
