Quote:Rep. Peter King: 'I Support Waterboarding, It Is Not Torture'
Let's water board you and see how you feel afterwards, you miserable prick.
It wouldn't take more than an hour, and we would have King swearing on video that every word of the Communist Manifesto was true, that there is no other god than Allah, and that he (King) enjoyed taking it up the ass every chance he got. Miserable prick. But point that out to him, and he'd have to deny it or else admit that water boarding is a lousy way to get reliable information in the first place. So he would have to claim -- laughably -- that he is tougher and better able to withstand such interrogation than commandos who are trained to deal with such treatment as best they can if captured.
But that's the point with chicken hawks and tough guy wannabes. There's no level to which they won't stoop as long as they are secure in the belief that only the 'bad guys' will be tortured (or is that 'interrogated bigly'?). Because, as we all know, the U.S. has never unjustly detained and tortured anyone on suspicion of terrorist activity or of fighting on behalf of our enemies. No one ever got ratted out to U.S. forces as a spy/enemy combatant/potential terrorist to satisfy a private vendetta or to collect on a reward.
Nope. Didn't happen. Of course not.
