McCain Compromise

Open Letter to Senator John McCain

Dear Senator:

It has been reported in the media that you are close to an accommodation with the White House on the McCain amendment that outlaws torture in all forms. This would apply to all agencies and armed forces of the United States. Although I realize that compromise is part of the democratic process, I hope in this instance you haven’t gone that route, as this is too important an issue.

Remember, when you compromise your ethics and beliefs, you are no longer ethical or believable.
