John McCain has more reason than anyone in this country to be an advocate against the use of torture by the U.S. military, which he has been for a very long time. In fact, in one of the last republican debates, McCain speaks out against torture, specifically the use of water boarding. Now, for some reason, McCain suddenly doesn't think that it's all that bad. So much so, that he opposes the bill set forth to ban water boarding.
Why the sudden change? Oh yeah, I remember. John McCain has zero political backbone.
Republicans who hate McCain do so because he always followed his own beliefs, and not the beliefs of his party. Since 2000, McCain has abandoned that approach and now changes his mind a the drop of a hat if it means a few more votes from the base of his party. Which is exactly what McCain is doing in this situation. There is no other way to explain why a former POW, who was painstakingly tortured for 5 years would support torture.
But for some reason, he does now. Only a few days after he is endorsed by President Bush.
Here we go again....
