Obama needs to appoint a Special Prosecutor. And do it soon.

Emptywheel » Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Was Waterboarded 183 Times in One Month

Jonathan Turley's blog:

New Torture Memos Reveal Details of America’s Torture Program « JONATHAN TURLEY

Same drive-by as always. I understand they signed off on the waterboarding that prevented futher attacks and that you have a tender spot in your heart for anyone who, above all else, hates America. But the rest is the same garbage. Democrats did the rest, NAFTA, CRA, Securities Modernization Act, Etc.

In my opinion, they can waterboard ALL the Terrorists, if that will save just one life! They are hell-bent on killing us, and I for one, would not like to be the recipient of thier bombs or what ever they use to kill us.

May the LORD Bless each of you.

I wish you well...

Jesse

The LORD sure wouldn't approve of that now, would he?

It's really too bad they didn't go for 200.
Someone's still following the Bush way, if it fails keep trying it maybe it will work this time.

Boy do you have it wrong. We are exploiting the living as a reason to torture, i.e., we will torture to keep people alive.

If I had had a loved one die on 9/11, I would be the first in line with a bamboo shoot, ready to ram it under a terrorist's fingernails to get info.

Where was the international community on that one?

Flying in a jet taken over by hijackers to be rammed into the side of a building?

Being inside a building losing oxygen supply only to have 80 floors come crashing down on top of you.

If the moral compass is pointed at the USA for "waterboarding", then the same moral compass should be pointed at Sharia Islamic Law that enslaves women, tortures women and children, condones slavery, JUSTIFIES TERRORISM, and every other 4th century construct that Sharia Law supports.

I couldn't care less if they waterboarded him on the Moon.

Waterboarding GOT THE JOB DONE!

I'm darn sure Nick Berg couldn't care less about the waterboarding - at least NOBODY LOST THEIR HEADS!
Get off your high horse...you are as EVIL as the terrorist.,, and you neocons have no right to hijack 9/11..you lowered our nation to their level.
