Fred Thompson: (On Torture) Whatever is Necessary!
Stop The ACLU ^ | December 5, 2007

Posted on 12/06/2007 1:07:02 AM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Compare this to [1] Huckabee’s view on waterboarding. From the [2] Charlie Rose interview:

Thompson: I’m telling you, as President, if the lives of a bunch of American citizens were at stake and I thought that there was a good chance that an individual had information and could impart information that would help save those lives, I’m just saying, that I would do whatever is necessary to get that information from that person. I would authorize that. Whatever is necessary to save a number of American lives.

Thanks to Cuffy who says this locks up the [3] Jack Bauer Caucus.

Yup, you thought BDS was bad, wait until you see TDS! :-D I'm a great fan of fireworks, so I'd say keep the explosions coming!

And yes, do whatever it takes to get the information we need. It's good to finally see a candidate who understands that we're at war.

That would be the least I would expect from a President.

Let millions of Americans die because you’re a panty waisted wimp and get taken out behind the Whitehouse for your just punishment.

“No mamby-pamby Sunday School Christianity like “you-know-who” from Hope?”

No joke.

We need a real CIC (Thompson), not a schoolmarm (Huckatax).
