The Australian reports that while in Australia, McCain said that President is neglecting the Asia-Pacific region as his administration is drawn into the deteriorating war in Iraq, says the senior Republican senator tipped to become the next president of the US. In an interview with The Weekend Australian, Senator McCain also criticised the US and Australian governments for their stance on greenhouse gases, including the new six-country pact on developing cleaner energy technologies. He said Mr Bush's administration had "made a terrible mistake by basically ignoring this issue and future generations of Americans and future generations of the world will pay a very heavy price."
You can count on that from me :)
Nope.

Process Cuba prisoners, McCain says
The Associated Press
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 01.28.2006
advertisementDAVOS, Switzerland — Interrogation methods at the U.S. prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, are still a concern, Sen. John McCain said Friday, calling on authorities to process prisoners held as long as four years without charge.
About 500 men accused of links to Afghanistan's ousted Taliban regime or the al-Qaida terror network continue to be held at the prison camp. Only a handful of the prisoners have been charged.
"What I was concerned about and continue to be concerned about is interrogation methods," McCain told The Associated Press on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum.

Won't work .. he's like Clinton/Gore/Kerry .. he doesn't know when to shut up
One word says it all...
Won't mater what party he runs with ... he won't get elected
He can't be trusted .. he word means nothing
I will NEVER vote for McInsane under ANY circumstances.
If it is the traitor against Hitlary, I will sit out.
jeez...
Why do we let him out of the country?? He is doing more harm than Kerry or Biden...because even the world recognizes that they are from the "opposition party"...
but, McCain not only is in Bush's party...but, there are an abundance of pictures of them at events together...and there are even pictures of McCain embracing Bush..
which just makes this look so "tawdry"...(how about that for a description)...LOL
How's that temper problem, John?
McCain singlehandedly drove me to the Libertarian Party when I lived in Arizona.
I have since recovered from that little bit of insanity, but I won't vote for him NO MATTER WHAT.
If our choices are McCain for the Republican candidate and Hillary for the Dems, it MIGHT just be the first time in the last 100 years that a third party candidate has a 'snowball's chance'.
I'd vote for Lieberman as a Democrat (or Zell Miller should he decide to get back into politics) before I'd vote for McCain. There are a few other Democrats I'd vote for over McCain too.
Heck, Obama would probably be a safer President than McCain.
I don't know if I buy into Rush's thinking on this one. First, we are definitely fishing the oceans into oblivion. We can do something so massive as to dramatically decrease the enormous schools of fish that span the globe.
With that said, I can't say I've personally seen the slightest indication that man is in anyway responsible for the rise in greenhouse gases or global warning. Indeed, man just puts out a very small fraction of the greenhouse gases emitted into the air.
And yes, fish populations are far more finite and don't have nearly the same number of checks and balanaces that the environment will.
In short, man can affect the globe, but as to whether that's happening with greenhouse gases and to what degree is simply not clear to me (and I do have my doubts).
Slow reductions sound fine. But Kyoto was a terrible, terrible act. No one has been complying by it, its reductions were not that large despite it killing the economies of nations that implemented it (much bigger impact than projected in Europe), and the fact that if left out China and India is inexcuseable, reckless, and would really, really hurt us if we gave it a second look.
No dims, no problems.
Manchurian candidates, the both of them?
Sorry to anyone who is offended, I'll certainly not denigrate him for what he went through, McCain at least served our country in Vietnam and gave up years of his life, but something happened to him there.
He's not well. He earned respect for his service, but something is just wrong.

I will never understand why McPain teams up with Kerry so much
Aw, jeez....a pair of jokers there!!!
Considering those poll results from 2004...do you think they will try it this time??
Maybe McCain/Kerry, this time....
