Are you naive enough to believe that if we play nice with the fucking terrorists that they won't torture and kill Americans guilty of nothing but being Americans?
Why don't you ask Dan Perl
Go here to watch if you have the stomach for it.
THE DANIEL PEARL BEHEADING VIDEO
I haven't seen that video since 9-11. Amazing.
Ever hear two wrongs don't make a right?
And yes, we should not torture because that puts us on the side of richousness.
I just had a dozen thoughts on why/how you are wrong. Its pointless to explain it to you. Just know that you were wrong before Bush took office, and you are wrong now that he's gone. And it is amazing to me that someone who thinks like you was running this country. Just remember, Bush was really dumb. And Cheney is really evil. That's who you agree with.
But, why are you torturing them?
a. Because they torture us
b. Because we actually think they are holding some information that might make us safer
Based on how many people you tortured, I think you got off on it.
You know what? We knew you right wingers were wrong when Bush was torturing, and we had an election that confirms America does not approve of Dick Cheney or Bush or any of their policies, one being torture.
Again read the WSJ piece and tell me how horribly the fucking terrorists were treated.
this has absolutely nothing to do with politics but as usual you can't think outside of your GOP sucks and Democrats are wonderful paradigm.
The issue here is pragmatism and nothing more. If you had any degree of certainty that a bomb was going to be detonated in a school your child attends, and you had one of the men involved in custody you would rather let your children and the children of every other parent in that school die rather than pour water of the man's face?
Thats the lame old argument you guys have been using for years.
Of course I would torture if I had any degree of certainty.
Now you guys tortured thousands of Iraqi's and Afganistan's and eventually, a lot of them are going to be let go, and you got NOTHING from them, because you didn't have any certainty. You just tortured them all.
You guys are flat out wrong on this one.
