RHF,

Yes, I'd torture to save my own family. But, I'd be committing a crime
and would expect to face prosecution. It would be worth it to save my
family, but I know I'd be committing a crime.

So? You've already been busted for smoking pot with your students and also once
claimed to have a PhD.

After that, what's one more crime, dufus?

They've hired at least one dufus who once claimed to have a PhD, and who knows,
there may be more dufi there.

Thiessen's LA Tower Canard

We will not know for sure how much garbage or non-garbage the CIA
gleaned from torturing captives until a Truth Commission sorts it all
out, but we do have a great deal of evidence that torturing KSM was,
pace Thiessen, not responsible for foiling the LA Tower plot. As Tim
Noah notes, there is a matter of chronology:

In a White House press briefing, Bush's counterterrorism chief,
Frances Fragos Townsend, told reporters that the cell leader was
arrested in February 2002, and "at that point, the other members of the
cell" (later arrested) "believed that the West Coast plot has been
canceled, was not going forward" [italics mine]. A subsequent fact sheet
released by the Bush White House states, "In 2002, we broke up [italics
mine] a plot by KSM to hijack an airplane and fly it into the tallest
building on the West Coast." These two statements make clear that
however far the plot to attack the Library Tower ever got—an unnamed
senior FBI official would later tell the Los Angeles Times that Bush's
characterization of it as a "disrupted plot" was "ludicrous"—that plot
was foiled in 2002. But Sheikh Mohammed wasn't captured until March 2003.

[ Is the Use of Force the Defining Element of Torture ? ]

That trauma resulting in pain and suffering is NOT torture?

(geez, this moron can't even post a simple sentence)

Torture is torture. Do you think, well that is useless thing to
ask....would you like to be tortured? It's a quick way to get to the
truth. According to you.

The answer is that torture doesn't work.


Another Liberal Lie and Democrat Distortion :
Since what is now being called Torture did
help prevent a 9/11 type Attack on LA.


-*The answer is that you, personally, want to watch. *


KC - If you had ever saw a Family Member, a Friend
or Loved One In-Pain and Suffering : You Would Not
Want To Watch [.]


- You get your rocks off by hearing about torture.


KC - Typical Liberal-Fascist Thinking Torture = Sex.

human beings who do not bow-down to them ~ RHF


- But so what, you want to watch other people being tortured.


KC -clearly- Your 'projections' -wrt- my mental
reasoning and motives; are in-fact a mirror of
your own Psyche with your repeated allusions
to 'watching' and 'sex'.


-*Not that torture ever reveals anything,
- how many witches got burned do you


think? *How many satanists?


KC - Not talking about 'witches' or 'satinists'
unless you personally know of some who have
recently been 'burned' here i the USA.


We are Talking about Islam-O-Fascist Terrorists
who plan Terrorist Attacks like 9/11 and Kill
Thousands of Innocent People Men, Women
and Children.


- The fact is that all the persons involved in torture
- are criminally culpable. *The fact that they won't
- be brought to trial shows what prosecutorial
- discretion is.


KC -fwiw- Personally I 'think' that both Bush and
Cheney should be Accountable; and Said They
Asked For The Legal Advisements On What
Constitutes Torture : State That They Gave The
Orders; and Name The Names of The Members
of the US Congress Who Either Gave The OK
or Their Passive Approval to what is now being
Called Torture After-the-Fact by many of those
same Members of the US Congress.


Pelosi & Reid & Biden + Et Al


Former us president GW Bush and former vp
Dick Cheney need to Stand-Up before the US
Congress On TV and Start Name Names.

Would you like to be tortured? When has the law ever allowed
torture? Remember all the witches that were caught by torture?

The Neocons want to pretend there was never a Nuremberg trial, never a
Geneva Convention, never a rebuttal of the "Orders are Orders (Befehl

judiciary itself was put on trial at Nuremberg for legalizing torture
and cruel and unusual punishment as depicted in the movie Judgement at
Nuremburg. They want to pretend its all debatable.

It's on the news almost every night. Plant managers, town managers
saying we had given these people notice they were being let go, but
the stimulus let us keep them. Turn off FUX news and learn something.


over 600,000,000 jobs lost. *No rise in jobs, no hits, no bases, no runs.

Obama has saved zero jobs, but he has been costing us plenty of jobs,
every time he over steps the constitution and beats up on industry and
investors, because that drives money away from the Obama economy.

Geitner was just today saying that they fixed thing so new capital could
come into the markets, who in their right mind would put money where
Obama could do to you what he did to GM investors with capital in this
market. *They should have pulled out when Obama took office, they'd be
way ahead of the game.


This recession started under Bush. All last year, every month, we
were in a recession. That's government figures, Bush announced his
failure after the election. Bush tried to keep the lid on but the
monthly numbers were discouraging.

Now why should you believe me? Who is in the White House trying to
sort out Bush's mess?

Face it, your spending and wars darn near destroyed this great nation.

Remember, your great break through was taking about lowering taxes.
You never talked about deficits. How does it feel to fail?
