Let's recall that the United States negotiated the release of 591 U.S. POWs held by North Vietnam as part of the 1973 Paris peace accord. McCain was among those who benefited from the accord. There's no doubt that the accord came at a heavy price for the U.S. war cause because, in order to get those prisoners out, the U.S. effectively had to agree to withdraw from Vietnam. Considering what the United States had to give up in order to win his freedom, John McCain is the last person I would expect to question this administration's effort to achieve the same result for Bergdahl.
