McCain gave ship locations in return for medical treatment before he was tortured. He excuses himself by saying that the ships had moved from their positions.

Peach has a GREAT point and further illustrates McCain's hypocrisy:

"McCain himself admits, in his autobiography, that torture worked when he was tortured. Now, of course, he says that torture doesn't work."

I'd have some respect for him if he was REALLY concerned about torture, American style, (IOW, not torture at all), but all McCain cares about is himself and his career. The stupid thing is that he will NEVER get by a primary to win the votes of the Dimocrats he is now pandering to.

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_McCain:
"McCain signed an anti-American propaganda message which was written in Vietnamese, but did so only as a result of torture (to this day, he cannot raise his arms above his head, due to his two broken shoulders from the severe beatings administered by the North Vietnamese)."

Due to an editing error, wikipedia.org failed to make clear that his arms hurt only when he has to vote for measures favorable to Republicans.
