Fresh Questions About the CIA’s Interrogation Tapes

We're all talking like we KNOW what is what, I say we don't try anybody for their crimes against humanity until we've had a chance to waterboard them to see what they REALLY know.

Today the dems said prosecution is not likely. It appears enough copies of those enhanced interroogation memos exist that the dems could not shred them all and then purify their denial. They continue to deny but only the stupid believe them and deny the truth. They knew and they approved.

Today they said preosecution is not likely. It appears enough copies of those tactic memos exist that the dems could not shred hem them all and then deny. They continue to deny but only the stupid deny the truth. They knew and they approved.

Well let's see - waterboarding, sleep deprevation, smalll space confinement etc... are torture and wrong but bombing Afghan villages and killing women and children is okay. Obama has accelerated this war with stepped up bombing and the death toll gets no coverage unlike the left wing medias constant assault on Bush and daily casuality counts in both wars. The media has gone so silent you don't even realize we are at war anymore. They used the war propaganda tool to help defeat the GOP but now fail to cover it to prevent it from harming their party (DEMS). Thirty dead women and children today but don't waterboard terrorists trying to kill our coitizens. THE LEFT WING MEDIA is showing their bias they do so willingly but they are no different then state controlled media in other countries. Their silence is speaking volumes.

Torture is an example of the cold heart freezing the soul of a dying empire:

If you support torture, no matter what you call it, you are un-American, and should probably move to a nation that more closely represents your values. North Korea or the UAR, for example.

OBAMA IS WRONG!

After readig the comments it occurs to me that the USA Is still polarized. ther has not been any smoothing of the devision between the left and right, in fact it seems even worse.
IMO water boarding is torture yet not cruel and unussual punishment, so perfectly reasonable to apply . This classification of torture is based on definition #2 of torture. That is :2 causes great discomfoprt or anxiety. Any one that uses torture as defined by definition #1: the action or practice of causeing severe pain... Is cruel and unussual punishment. For Me to condemn the use of enhanced interogation techniques (torture) I would need to know all of the intelligence gathered by it's use. Yet since this information would possibly be detrimentale if given to are enemies--- I can remain agnostic about its use--- and not demend all that information be presented at this time.
Furthermore, neither Bush nor Chenny set up a crash course on waterboarding when Bush was president. the procedure was taught and practiced for a long time prior. Believing tyhat only Bush could set up and instigate such a widely used procedure is ludicrous. If so he was a truly remarkable person.

The very fact that tortue was used supports the fact that the "War on Terror" from the beginning was the scam that many of us believed fom the very beginning. Torture is a routine tool used by rogue governments to force sellected detainees to confess to crimes that they had no part, and often te rogue government leaders themselves directed. There is very much evidence for example that the events of 9011 could not have possibly been the work or the alQaeda, and that elements of the US government was iinvolved in that high treason and massmurder themselves/.

In the United States i grew up in, torture was treason. It was done only by Anal Retentive Sadistic Nazi types (Cheney). There were often accompanied by a dim witted side kick (W).
Guess what. If we ever have an attorny general who decides not to break his oath of office, and upholds the law, it will be again. Will A.G. Holder rise to the occasion? Time will tell.

Holierthanthou, you are truly a spun unit. A man without a country. You claim to be a conservative but not a Republican. You say that you didn't vote for bush but would now. You obviously hate our presidents & the majority of Americans. How wishy washy you are. Take a chance, pick a side, jump off that fence that you probably call a railing. Your twisted logic & facts seem to keep you excited but it's time to face the facts. You are in a minority of the minority getting smaller by the day. You guys preach smaller government, thanks for making it happen.

Holierthanthou, you are truly a spun unit. You claim to not be a Repubublican but a conservative & say you didn't vote for the bush brigade but now you would? You obviously hate our presidents & the majority of America. How wishy washy you are. You take no side & have no party. You probably call that fence you sit on a railing. Your twisted logic & facts seem to really excite you but it's time to face reality. You are in the minority of the minority.
BTW, how's that conservative group thing working out for you?

Mr. HolyRoller -

U are a uneducated. U are boring. U need a life outside the bubble u live in. Just a reminder--the world is not in Black and White. So please quit pestering.

Torture is wrong, doesn't matter what the results. To act in revenge or fear is to forget all your religion teaches you.

Please understand that there are people out there who disagree with you. Doesn't mean they are right or wrong anymore than you are.
