True War Heroes Do Not Support Torture.

[tekisui]

McShame is going to try and carry the mantle of a War Hero. When someone who experienced Torture firsthand, sells out to support Torture, they have forfeited the respect of their service.

He may have been a Hero, but his is NO MORE. He is now a supporter of Torture and a supporter of Endless War. He is NO HERO.

1. That's quite a flipflop for him, considering the 2005 bill.

He's said he broke under torture himself, and that torture doesn't work as an information gathering technique. His latest vote is quite puzzling.

2. He has lost his way in the quest for the White House.

We have seen it before. It is sad but not surprising. He is a Repiggy after all.

3. He destroyed any last remaining shred of credibility he may have had

with this particular flip-flop - his pandering to the pathetic, 19% knuckle-draggers really reached a new low with this one.

4. And I hope the Dems POUND him on this.

He has disgraced his service, the service of his fellow POW's, and the compromised the safety of those serving now.

He has discredited his military history with this latest chapter.

5. as long as we don't turn into those assholes who insulted Kerry with the band-aids, I quite agree

We have to trapse carefully when we start poking about in his military record.

It's one if the reasons he was pre-selected as their nom. However it doesn't make him invulnerable...just hypocritical.

6. Attack you opponents strengths. But, do so very carefully.

He gave us the opening. He can hit his "military history" without ever mentioning his service from 30 years ago. We can paint him as a war-mongering torture supporter. His own words will disgrace his service.

7. Old soldiers don't die, they just fade into supporting Torture.
