I only watch Fox News if I don't feel angry enough

Just been watching McCain interviewed by O'Reilly. The first part of the interview is here The second part transcript isn't out yet and this is what I watched this morning.

I can't believe O'Reilly sticks to his support of water-boarding as an acceptable torture technique - he's really just playing to the audience and doesn't care about the long term issues of the welfare of US service personnel in future conflicts - The argument vis- If America tortures then it's ok for us to do so to.

It's a fairly similar argument to those about capital punishment. If America kills about 300 of it's own citizens every year then how can it take the moral high ground when China kills 3000 or more?.

Well that's my anger quotient topped up for the morning, thanks again Fox!
