John McCain angered over loss of Hanoi Hilton Honors points
CLEVELAND — Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) recently put Hilton Hotels in his crosshairs after learning his Hilton Honors points from his nearly six-year stay at the Hanoi Hilton in North Vietnam from 1967 to 1973 had expired.
According to sources, McCain learned the news while trying to book a room for himself in Cleveland, where he was scheduled to be recognized at game three of the NBA Finals, after the National Guard’s contract for promoted patriotism expired last month.
A front desk employee explained that he would not be able to upgrade to the penthouse suite because his Honors points had recently expired.
