Torture is not wrong.
Torture is evil.

We need to say this loud and clear.

1. Here's the argument ever freepers will understand:
Torture doesn't work. The intelligence gathered from torture is notoriously unreliable.

3. No, it doesn't matter if it works or not, it is evil.
And anyone who allows it to continue is also evil.

5. It doesn't matter to them. They think all of those
tortured are terrorists and so they don't care. They have a bloodlust that has no boundary because they think they are getting revenge and are being protected as well as Muslims in their eyes being lesser beings of no worth.

2. hold forever without charge or courts is also not wrong -
it's just not allowed under the Consitution - or it wasn't until we got a right wing Court.

McCain bill is the same as Bush bill in that it tears up Consitution and holds forever without charge.
