President Has “More Effective” Method to Get Intel from Terrorists - What Is It?
Cross Action News ^ | 5-26-09 | Dennis Prager

Most opponents of water-boarding terrorists rely on the belief that such a method is as unnecessary as it is illegal. Therefore, if it is shown that water-boarding did in fact provide information that saved many innocent lives, opponents have to argue one of two positions: that there was a better, non-brutal, method available; or that it is morally preferable to have innocent Americans and others killed, brain damaged, blinded, and paralyzed rather than water-board a single terrorist.

With the woman he could curse them with childbirth. With the men, by the sweat of their brow they shall eat bread. For the devil on his belly he can crawl.

Oh wait a minute that’s already been in force since Adam and Eve.

It was later determined to be much too cruel and inhumane.

Show them naked pictures of his wife?

Techcor, what are you thinking?! We still need them alive for the intel. I'd be willing to bet that after one look, those who would be lucky to survive, would be begging to stay at gitmo. :^)

I read the Obama and the South Park Gnomes article on WSJ this morning ( http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124329131991652291.html ) and Rush made reference to it this noon. This is just another example of it.

Basically, the article compared the Obama administration's policies to an episode of South Park- Phase One: Steal Underpants, Phase Two: ? , Phase Three: Profits!! The kids quickly caught on that step 2 in a three step process was very important. When pressed about Phase Two, the Gnome would only offer "Phase Three is profits!"

Unfortunately, this appears to be the Obama administration's approach to most things. Whether it is "Phase One: Order Gitmo Closed, Phase Two: ?, Phase Three: Close Gitmo! or Phase One: Announce Better Methods, Phasae Two: ?, Phase Three: Information! the administration will continue to announce their intended results without ever being pressed for an actual plan by any one in the media.

An oldie but a good one... When Obamba's teleprompter broke down while he was giving a speech in Bristol, VA. You can still find it on YouTube.

Make the terrorist drink a big chocolate milk shake really fast so they get one of those “back of the eyeball” headaches!

Perhaps the mohamedan snob will bow to mecca with the terrorist bastards, then chat whilst holding tea in that poofter, pantywaisted, painfully-affected “look at me I’m a mohhamedan too” manner of his. $#@%%ing douche in chief.

Barry is not fooling anyone because truth beknown, he has reserved the right to use waterboarding, or any other methods deemed necessary, in select cases. His followers fail to realize this.
