There is also not much to the argument that our employment of torture will only embolden the enemy to barbarously treat Americans held captive. What a silly idea! Captured Americans have already been filmed being beheaded — or shot or burned — and their mutilated corpses hung up for public ridicule.

What makes ANYONE believe the TERRORISTS are going to play nice and not TORTUE? Isn't beheading playing a little rough for the sandbox kids? I don't get it I guess I am too dumb for the likes of these pussy footing politicians. McLame gets it but he is running for Pres so wants to make sure whatever sounds good gets to the masses, who never think anyway. Just stare at the tooob

McCain has also argued that torture does not work. But in his autobiography, he says that he submitted to torture in order to get medical treatment and told his captors what they wanted to know.

He details what that was that they wanted to know, but I don't recall what it was. Something about what his mission was and where.
