This might just be the funniest - albeit random - story I've read all day. The folks over at Gawker posted this little gem of a story. Back in May 1973 shortly after John McCain was released from his POW camp he gave an interview to US News & World Report.

"Now I don't hate them any more—not these particular guys. I hate and detest the leaders. Some guards would just come in and do their job. When they were told to beat you they would come in and do it. Some seemed to get a big bang out of it. A lot of them were homosexual, although never toward us. Some, who were pretty damned sadistic, seemed to get a big thrill out of the beatings."

And according to the Bush administration's definition of torture, John McCain was not tortured in Vietnam.
