I just want any crocodile tears lefty to answer why they assert that torture is wrong but killing others is A-OK, especially when it's done under Obama's direction.

Some of those tortured survive; none of those killed survive. Why don't they consider Obama's killings worse than the CIA's supposed torture?

what is your tactic, put our heads in the sand and just ignore our enemies?
If torturing people did nothing but motivate the enemy, and tarnish our reputation, then what's the point of doing it?

There are a myriad of other threads here on C-D that should fulfill your need for your daily dose of Obama bashing.
Don't feed the trolls

I have the same question about Obama's killings... Like I said, some of those tortured survive. None of those killed survive.

First, Gruber spills the beans on what many of us already knew... Obama and his admin lied and intentionally mislead the CBO and the American public so they could pass Obamacare (while also calling American voters "stupid"), handing the GOP a HUGE PR gift.

Now, Feinstein and the Senate Dems hand ISIS et al the most powerful recruiting and motivational tool they've ever had.

Absolutely right, the huge amount of press that it is getting will be a gold mine to ISIS as a recruiting tool. If the momentum keeps up we will have Al Queda, ISIS and all the others foaming at the mouth and attacking us on all fronts. As usual, Innocents will be killed. Get ready for the ride, It's war time!

No, not every action. But we aren't talking about every action, we're talking about the way Republicans had people kidnaped and tortured. We're talking about specific events.

Take the actual invasion of Afghanistan; I don't agree with it, I think it was a mistake. And it's clear that Bush failed in that as badly as he failed in everything, but that doesn't make him scum, it just makes him a failure.

It's the invasion of a country under false pretenses that makes him and his supporters scum. It's his use of torture that makes him and those who support it scum. Hope this helps clear things up for you.

And Democrats, including Obama himself, order the killing of people. How is that not worse?
