    So much for McCain!!!

    In an interview with the Italian daily Corriere della Sera, Nguyen Tien Tran acknowledged that conditions in the prison were "tough, though not inhuman". But, he added: "We never tortured McCain. On the contrary, we saved his life, curing him with extremely valuable medicines that at times were not available to our own wounded."

    Wow, that's so DEMOCRAT of you to take the word of one of our enemies over a Honored America soldier, such as John McCain. You know what, you democrats are PURE ANTI AMERICAN SCUM! You're filthy little pukes, you have no place in our country.

      Yeah I know McCain can't raise his arms because the guards over massaged his shoulders after they gave him his pedicures.

        I am impressed at the doubts expressed in this post, - by those who might otherwise wish to profit by pretending it is true.

        Like them, I don't think a torturer's word is worth anything.

        It is good to show rabid anything-bad -about-Obama- is-true peoplewhat objectivity is about.

        We can oppose McCain, without believing everything bad said about him; particularly stuff pulled together by Rove agents back in 2000.

            We shouldn't believe a torturer, whether his name is Nguyen Tien Tran or George Walker Bush.
