1967 -- it wasn't just the "Summer of Love" (btw: Open Thread)

I was wondering what your take on the two McCains' (II and III) is on the subject of the USS Liberty and the USS Forrestal ?

In other words, the MSM does not list the USS Liberty (34 US servicemen killed) as a coverup by McCain II and does not list the USS Forrestal (134 US servicemen killed) as caused by a "wet start" ( http://judicial-inc.biz/wet_start_mcCain.jpg ) by a young "hot-dog" pilot McCain III ?

Thus, are these just rumors by those who are jealous of the McCains' and their family military history ? Or is the MSM, the government and the military (especially the US Navy) covering up since the last 41 years what took place on those deadly dates (June 8 and July 29 respectively) in 1967?
