Record (5.00 / 2) (#11)

The link to his record says he supports increasing federal funds for education and treatment.  I support increased funds for treatment.  Treatment is preferable to incarceration.  Maybe that's because of his wife.  Who knows.

fashion in 2000 when I first learned of all this.  I respected him for it but most of the things I respected John McCain for in 2000 he decided weren't aspects of his political self worth keeping.  Incarceration accomplishes nothing for most people needing treatment in my opinion and for what my opine is worth incarceration seems to me to have the potential to make matters worse for the person needing treatment and in the end worse for all of us sharing the world with them.
