Questioning Pres Carter why torture shouldn`t be allowed on prisoners of war. Don`t these fools get it. The reason is so U.S troops won`t be tortured over seas as retaliation.. To tough a concept for the freeps to get obviously.:yoiks:

3. Tweety if CIA Spooks thought you had knowledge
of a immiment terrorist attack...would you support their right to torture you?

What about if they thought they could break you by raping your wife in front of you?

How about your daughter?

Come on Tweety, tell us what YOU'D accept. We're dying to know.

and to think "Tweety" once worked for Carter.

7. No he kept saying in a respectful way that a person will admit to anything

while being tortured. You don't necessarily get the truth. You may get what you think is the truth because you are getting what you want to hear. Not only being evil it is a very inefficient way of learning things.

5. Yes and he used the analogy of us having one of the 9/11 hijackers
in custody and whether or not torture would have helped. If they had them in custody 9/11 wouldn't have happened because they would have followed the leads and figured it out before it was too late!

Torture? How about just having a brain and using it.

6. McCain gets it
"It's not about who THEY are. It's about who WE are."

8. Plus the info obtain through torture is FALSE. It doesn't work for anyone
except the people who enjoy torturing other people. The info is wrong, it prevents our military from getting tortured, and IT IS THE WRONG THING TO DO. America is better than that. What about this can't the repugs get? I truly believe the repugs are just schoolyard bullies who like the idea of torture. There is no other reason because it is proved it doesn't work.
