Disagree with him, but this is one time where I will give him a pass, only because of the 6 years of Hell he endured in the Hanoi Hilton.

Still, waterboarding is not torture. No pain other than the “psychological” fear of drowning is present, and since the terrorist should be smart enough to realize that US laws don’t allow us to drown him, there really isn’t anything involved other than minor discomfort.

Now listening to Nancy Pelosi read the audio version of her book “watching paint dry”, now that would be classified as torture.

Not quite the psychological fear of drowning, but more like the esophageal reflex that keeps amniotic fluid out of developing lungs before we are born.

It is exceedingly painful but it works.

It's all natural, and you can be trained to deal with it effectively.

.The fear arises out of ignorance.

Fu*k McCain...how about that? I've had it with folks having to preface all comments about McCain with the proverbial: “I respect his service blah...blah...blah”

I could give a rats arse about his service! This POS voted to take away free speech from his fellow Americans, stabs his own party in the back time and time again, and constantly reaches over to the enemy, all for a glowing article from the NYT’s.

You're free to “give him a pass” because of his military service, but many of us no longer feel the obligation to praise this traitor, back stabbing, POS.
