I haven't heard a "liberal drum beat" to put John McCain on the ticket
with Kerry. A few people have discussed this idea, but McCain consistently
denies any intention to join Kerry's ticket and I have not heard Kerry
say one word on that subject.

You Republicans think that just because a few radio/tv commentators float
the idea of a Kerry/McCain ticket that it is a "drum beat."

There are different levels of torchure. Forcing Muslims to eat pork, drink 
liquor, and denounce their god is torture to them. Forcing them to 
masturbate in front of American troops is torture to them. If its such a 
joy in the park, why don't you volunteer to serve as a POW in one of the 
Iraqi prisons and then let us know how much joy you received.
