I'm probably going to catch hell for saying this, but I don't think McCain's position on torture has anything to do with morality.
He signed a confession of war crimes, for Christ's sake. How could he stand up now and say that torture yields accurate intel?
Notice that on all the other issues, he's twice the son of perdition. A quarter million troops in Iraq? Make it half a million, ha ha! Stay there fifty years? Make it a hundred, ha ha ha! And what about the Iran NIE? Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha HA HA HA HA HA HA!
You would never guess from his cheerfulness that he's talking about events that will result in the loss of lives of thousands of innocent people. His psychosis goes well beyond insenstivity and far, far into sadism.
He reminds me of the Joker: twisted smile, sick sense of humor, superficial cheeriness broken by eruptions of rage whenever he perceives a slight -- which is all the time.
How dare I make such a comparison with a man who has suffered so much? Well, you'll remember that falling into a vat of acid didn't make the Joker a better person . . . .
