Regardless of the possible ramifications of McCain's bill, I support McCain in his efforts to outlaw torture.

The United States is supposed to be above this sort of thing. The United States is supposed to be the beacon of freedom and equal rights.

For the White House to say the U.S. does not commit torture, and then ask for a provision allowing them to torture, is the utmost in hypocrisy.
