I can't believe the Democrats are still in an uproar about the so-called torture of Al-Qaeda terrorists by the US military during the Bush administration. Even when it came to light that these very interrogations allowed us to head off a 9-11 style attack on Los Angeles in 2002, sparing the lives of thousands of Americans, the left just won't let go.
It doesn't matter that we saved lives, the terrorist threat has subsided and only politics matters now. We have to keep finding or creating dirt on the Bush administration that we can leverage for short term political gain!
So, since the liberals won't drop it I'll pose the next logical question. How many American lives would you guys forsake for the comfort of one terrorist? Because that's exactly what we are debating here.
- Was the terrorist killed? No.
- Was he permanently injured? No.
- Has he recovered from the interrogation? Yes.
- Is he currently in good health resting comfortably in a cell with a prayer rug, prayer beads, scented oils and a copy of the Quran all supplied by the US taxpayer? Yes.
So one of the terrorist masterminds responsible for the slaughter of 3,000 Americans on September 11, 2001 were made very uncomfortable for a few hours, and as a direct result he gave up information that allowed us to save thousands of American lives.
Now, WHO thinks this is a bad thing?
- The average American? No.
- The Republicans? No.
- Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Shumer, Levin and all the rest of the America hating left wing liberal Democrats? Yes.
The only conclusion I can draw from this whole brouhaha is that Democrats apparently value the comfort of one terrorist more than the lives of thousands of their fellow citizens.





Disgusting isn't it?
I wonder if it were their own families being held by these terrorists if they would approve these methods to get their loved ones back.

I wonder how long it will take before the Dems political game backfires?

I'm not sure it can backfire while they hold a near monopoly on the truth with the MSM/DNC Cabal.

If the truth mattered anymore there would already have been a revolt ten times the size of the recent teaparties.
Let's face it, if the truth mattered a young "community organizer" with no executive experience, a sorid history of associating with all kinds of radicals, and a only a vague claim to being a natural born citizen would never have been elected President.
In the words of MC 900 Ft Jesus; "Truth is out of style."

"I'm not sure it can backfire while they hold a near monopoly on the truth with the MSM/DNC Cabal."
Not so. Truth has nothing to do with the Mass Media Podpeople Hivemind frothings-at-the-mouth. It's all about poisonous, toxic UNtruth (or flat out lies in addition to merely lying distortions) being claimed as truth and gobbled up by gullible, stupid sheeple. "Yum! Love that arsenic. May I have some more, please?"

Well, perhaps I should have said "percieved truth" David, but what's the difference really?
The TRUTH that Obama was a young community organizer with Marxist leanings, a whole cast of radical associates and no executive experience didn't amount to a hill of beans did it? The MSM/DNC Cabal controls what the masses view to be true.
