Obama continually stirs the pot of Anti-Americanism!
Obama welcomed the report that spotlights the CIA's efforts to save American lives.
Yet again, Obama sides with the Terrorist.

There was a guy on the Don Imus program this morning, one of the actors from the movie
The Godfather I think. Anyway he acted like a Mafioso tough guy and tossed around some Italian phrases.
He suggested a better way to make terrorists talk than waterboarding. Tie them to a chair and make them watch while their wives try to fold a road map. They'll talk.

This CIA report on alleged torture cost the US taxpayers $40 million. That fact by itself should be the news that's taken away from this report, not the stuff they packed in it to make the CIA look bad. And for what? Diane Feinstein is pissed because the CIA spied on the Intelligence committee. Well, duh, that's what spies do, they spy. She wanted this to come out to get back at the CIA for peeking under her covers. And the democRATS in general wanted this report out now before the Republicans take over the Senate in 3 weeks. No Republican approved of the report. It was all one-sided to make the CIA and America look bad. Not one person accused in the report was ever interviewed or called before the committee to explain their side of the story. And finally, the CIA briefed the Senate intelligence Committee previously on the stuff in the report and not one peep out of the liberal senators was heard then.
This report was all political and a personal vendetta by Feinstein. Some fine, upstanding leaders they have in that deomcRAT party, huh?

Yeah, but they do care about their own skins.
Prosecuting under these circumstances opens THEM up to prosecutions down the road. Once/should the worm turn.

They didn’t crucify him, like the Taliban is reported to have done.

John McCain took the opportunity to vent. I guess he can’t get over the fact that Bush beat him for the nomination in 2000.
To: Rusty0604
1) statute of limitations?
2) the authorization to use military force specifically states, "by any means necessary," overriding any statutory prohibitions against torture
They have no case.

Civil suits and calls for “reparations” can’t be too far behind.

McCain has only one thing left in his quiver to fall back on--his prisoner of war status. Other than that he is irrelevant in the Senate or to me. He's definitely irrelevant to conservatives, the RINO that he is. I used to live in Arizona for years and quit voting for him about three election cycles before I moved to Florida. He is not competent anymore. Time to retire McCain.
