I've always been a McCain fan and if he can keep it together, he's
pretty viable as an alternative.
I also have a lot of respect for McCain. His only drawback is 25
years in the Senate.

Eisboch


Not me. He has a short fuse and he carries many liberal views,
including wanting to do away with waterboarding the captured
terrorists, even though even 30 seconds of doing so to high profile
terrorists resulted in tremendous information.

As you said, he is also long in the tooth and represents the same old
same old.

The Republicans did not offer any true conservative candidates this
election.


Being in favor of torture is a conservative view?

No wonder I don't like conservatives.


Serious question. I don't know much about waterboarding. Does it leave
any lasting physical or physiological effects?


Nope. It has proven to be effective within 30 seconds and has resulted in
solid information that resulted in stopping future terrorist attacks.

Torture? Nope.........but very effective according to reports on the use
of this technique on captured terrorists.


According to this (if true) we've used the technique 3 times since 9/11.
