Thank you Senator McCain...

I am not a huge fan of yours and I despise what you party has come to represent but I must offer my thanks for passing the Anti-torture amendment. It was your sacrifice for our country that gave you the moral authority to drive this issue through our corrupt government. By it's passing and widespread support, you have finally offered some hope that all Republicans aren't complete and total slimy pigs. While I don't believe for a second that BushCo will actually follow the law, I'm glad that you helped not only vindicate our position but you also showed the rest of the world that there are still a few Americans with some common decency. You have done an honorable thing today and you have earned the thanks of at least one Liberal, Progressive, Poor, Anti-War, tin-foil-hat-wearing American. I'll probably never like you very much but at least now, you've earned some respect. Thank you Senator John McCain for publicly opposing torture. And Merry Christmas to you sir, Merry Christmas.
