abuse of Iraqi prisoners by U.S
Senator John McCain said Sunday that abuse of Iraqi prisoners by U.S. soldiers, alleged anew in a report and under investigation again by the army, is hurting the country's image abroad.
"We've got to have it stopped," McCain (R-Ariz.) said on This Week on ABC.
"I don't know if these allegations are true or not, but they
have to be investigated."
Human Rights Watch issued a report Friday based on
interviews with a captain and two sergeants who served
in a battalion of the 82nd Airborne Division stationed
at a military base near Fallujah. The report alleged that army soldiers systematically tortured Iraqi detainees from 2003 into 2004, hitting them with baseball bats and dousing them with chemicals.

Senator John McCain on the Death of Chief Justice William Rehnquist
Senator John McCain on the Death of Chief Justice William Rehnquist
"The Supreme Court lost one of its finest jurists and the Nation lost one of its finest legal minds. In his over 30 years on the bench, first as an associate and later as Chief Justice, William Rehnquist was an impartial and objective judge, who always held the Constitution above any personal beliefs or political persuasions.
"Chief Justice Rehnquist began his celebrated legal career in Phoenix, therefore, many Arizonans, including myself, are especially proud of his public service and his contributions toward furthering our Nation’s jurisprudence. The courage the Chief Justice exhibited in his battle against thyroid cancer while continuing his commitment to the American people and the Supreme Court was remarkable, but not surprising.
"There can be no doubt that our nation will miss Chief Justice Rehnquist’s scholarly demeanor and superb leadership. I trust that the same integrity he brought to the highest court of our land will guide the President’s choice and the Senate’s consideration of the next Chief Justice"

Senators McCain and Coburn Call on Congress to Make Sacrifices to Fund Hurricane Relief Effort
Senators McCain and Coburn Call on Congress to Make Sacrifices to Fund Hurricane Relief Effort
U.S. Senators John McCain and Tom Coburn, M.D. issued the following joint statement today calling on Congress to "lead by example" by cutting back on pork-barrel and other unnecessary spending to help fund the Hurricane Katrina relief effort.
"Hurricane Katrina is one of the worst national tragedies in our history. Whenever our nation experiences a tragedy Americans come together and make sacrifices to help their neighbors. Individual Americans who are donating their time and money and opening their homes to evacuees are reminding us what sacrificing means. Sacrificing means giving up something you want in order give someone else something they need."
"If Congress wants to inspire the American people to continue to make sacrifices we need to be making sacrifices of our own. The costs of the recovery and relief effort will be enormous. Congress must do all that is necessary to fund essential relief and recovery efforts and help those in need. However, to the extent that it is possible, we should pay for this effort now rather than pass on even more debt to future generations
