The Look On McCain's Face

Did anyone catch Sen. John McCain's face as he said, with completely flat affect, come out on the agreement between Republican senators and the White House to permit torture of "terror suspects"?

The dead look in his eyes, the flat affect, tell you he did not believe what he was saying when he told the American public that this agreement "preserves the basic integrity of the Geneva Conventions."

This is just another reason why McCain can never be allowed near the presidency. Fortunately - oddly enough - most of the far right would agree.
