Because he refuses to accept torture as an acceptable means of handling prisoners. Because he's adamant about following the Geneva conventions.

I read posts here from conservatives saying that torture is necessary because the terrorists are brutal and that liberals who complain about the treatment of prisoners are traitors.

So you must think McCain also falls into this category - no?

The far left and far right have hijacked our nation. The division in our country is without merit. The issues have been narrowewd to to a certain few. Most americans believe where they stand on these issues designates them either far right or far left. In fact 85% of Americans are Centrist. Thus allowing the 15% to share the power and reap the rewards. America has become a shared empire under the illusion of a Democratic Republic. Isn't it time for a Centrists grass roots movement to dethrone the minority that has absconded and usurped the powers of the states?

We are in Iraq and I hear a lot about bringing democracy to the Iraqi people, yet here at home the current administration and the republican party look at anyone who differs in thought or opinions as "Nazi Appeasers". What good is it to give Iraq democracy and freedom of speech and choice, when dissent is being looked down upon by the current administration?

President Bush asked congress to amend the War Crimes Act so that him and other officials are protected from criminal prosecution and civil suits arising from war crimes, retroactively. Is this an implied confession that they have commited war crimes?
