John McCain vs. John McCain

McCain has had to flip flop to such an incredible degree in order to please the far right wing base that he has simply become an open goal for satirists.





Here, he doesn't even recognise his own words when they are read out to him.



He contradicts himself every time he opens his mouth. How can anyone take this guy seriously?

He's even voted to allow the US to torture people, having been a victim of torture himself.

After parading around as the righteous opponent of torture, McCain nonetheless endorsed and voted for the MCA, almost single-handedly ensuring its passage. That law pretends to compel compliance with the Conventions, while simultaneously vesting the President with the power to violate them -- precisely the power that the President is invoking here to proclaim that we have the right to use these methods.
