So he prefaces it by saying, "I respect his service." McCain is a Vietnam Vet of my generation, and I resent Santorum beyond what can be put into words.
Daily Kos: Santorum: I 'respect' McCain's service, but he still doesn't understand how torture works
HH: Now your former colleague, John McCain, said look, there’s no record, there’s no evidence here that these methods actually led to the capture or the killing of bin Laden. Do you disagree with that? Or do you think he’s got an argument?
RS: I don’t, everything I’ve read shows that we would not have gotten this information as to who this man was if it had not been gotten information from people who were subject to enhanced interrogation. And so this idea that we didn’t ask that question while Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was being waterboarded, he doesn’t understand how enhanced interrogation works. I mean, you break somebody, and after they’re broken, they become cooperative. And that’s when we got this information. And one thing led to another, and led to another, and that’s how we ended up with bin Laden.
My theory is that Santorum is pissed about McCain because of this:
Daily Kos: Even John McCain thinks it's time for Republicans to lay off their War on Women -
McCain opposes the idiotic laws such as AZ is proposing which would curtail women's rights.
GREGORY: Do you think that there is something of a war on women among Republicans?
McCAIN: I think we have to fix that. I think that there is a perception out there because of how this whole contraception issue played out — ah, we need to get off of that issue, in my view. I think we ought to respect the right of women to make choices in their lives and make that clear, and get back onto what the American people really care about.
Santorum said yesterday that he doesn't even care about the economy - JUST social issues, which to him includes getting rid of "Obamacare."
