Tonight on "Live with Dan Abrams", Arianna Huffington observed that
"... torture is against the United States Constitution, and torture is not effective..."
Dan Abrams countered this with...
"The AP's reporting today that Zubaydah's water-boarding actually led to capture of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed..."
Abrams advanced this as a serious argument for the effectiveness of torture.
[Note: Abrams did NOT cite completely fabricated al Qaeda-Iraq link provided by some other schmuck under torture... "evidence" cited by Sec State Powell at the U.N.!]
"Terrorism expert" Cliff May contributed that, "I'm willing to give him [Khalid Sheikh Mohammed] an uncomfortable afternoon in order to save American lives..."
What have we become?
"an uncomfortable afternoon"???... nice euphemism for TORTURE!
We've NOT captured Osama - should we be crushing more testicles? Has our failure been that we've been too gentle? Too civil?
... and I believe all Republican candidates - except McCain - have essentially embraced torture as official policy.
Again: WHAT HAVE WE BECOME?
