John McCain screws up

If senator John McCain of Arizona thinks he's going to prove himself a worthy candidate for the 2008 elections, I'd say that the report USA Today gives about him recently proves otherwise. They tell in here that he said:
...McCain is sponsoring a pair of amendments to the defense bill awaiting the return of Congress in September. In short, the amendments would:

Bar the military from treating detainees in "cruel, inhuman or degrading" ways.

Require military interrogators to stick to interrogation methods laid out in the Army field manual, the traditional guidepost.
More of this classic boredom, that's just what we need.

Back in 2000, I may have been willing to consider him as a presidential candidate myself. Unfortunately, as the article in USA Today shows, that is pretty much out of the question now.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
