He has also lived in a free country, yet has at too many opportunities determined to limit freedoms. You think he would know better, but he doesn't seem to...
You are so very right in stating he understands what is torture. Thank you for affirming my post as noted below.
Terrorists are unresponsive to direct questioning and psychological gambits. Interrogators need all stress and coercion techniques our military encounters in survival schools. McCain embraces liberal orthodoxy considering those methods torture, even though his searing experiences call forth contrary insights he ignores. He thereby ensures information vital to defeat terrorists remains sacred and unobtainable.
McCain continually seeks popular advancement by placating those coveting luxurious morality requiring shelter from hard choices and danger awareness. His crime is repudiating military and intelligence professionals facing hard choices when confronting shrewd, ruthless enemies obscured behind frightening uncertainties.
