I am very angry with McCain, Graham, and Warner, regarding their position on prisoner interrogations.
Some of our young soldiers were captured, beheaded, mutilated, and booby trapped in Baghdad. I need to understand how the Geneva Convention protected their young lives and their human rights. What friggin lawyer was there standing up and saying " oooh no, you should not do that"? Who was there for our soldiers, protecting their basic human rights while they were being tortured and defiled? Would they or their families be comforted by this McCain, Graham, Warner crap? I don't think so.
How did the Geneva Convention help our contractors in Baghdad when they were shot, mutilated, burned and hung from a bridge?
How did the Geneva Convention help our soldiers in Somalia when they were shot down, dragged through the streets and mutilated?
How did the Geneva Convention help our Marines in Beirut in 1983 when they were blown to bits as they slept?
Obviously, McCain, et al believe they are immune from criticism because they are "soldiers" and have fought in past wars. God Bless them for their service. However, even more obvious, they have not fought "this enemy" in the GWOT on the streets of Baghdad or the north country of Afghanistan.
p.s. forget about McCain as President - he will not even get throught the Arizona primary.
The Geneva Convention was designed for one purpose, to protect everyone else except our troops but unfortunately too many in our country has yet to realize it.
