You request Amazon to initiate a secure session
Comcast carries the traffic and sees your request
Comcast then asks Amazon for a secure session
Comcast gets a secure session to Amazon
Comcast gives you a secure session between Comcast and you

I don't think that would work ... the browser would detect that the
certificate for the session doesn't correspond to the host you are
supposed to be connecting with.
