Republican Senator John McCain on torture:
"I have often said, and will always maintain, that this question isn't about our enemies; it's about us. It's about who we were, who we are and who we aspire to be. It's about how we represent ourselves to the world. ... When we fight to defend our security we fight also for an idea ... that all men are endowed by the Creator with inalienable rights."
Has the Irish Government ever questioned the US government whether or not people for rendition transited at Shannon?
If not why not?

I think they did. That's not the problem. The problem is that they accepted USA assurances in response and hadn't the guts to inspect the planes.
That makes us morally guilty whether or not there were rendition subjects on the planes.
