Compare this to [1] Huckabees view on waterboarding. From the [2] Charlie Rose interview:
Thompson: Im 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, Im 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.
...WHATEVER IT TAKES!
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.
I have to say that the more I learn about Fred, the more I love... this is the type of man I want protecting our country!! “Whatever it takes” indeed.
Love the pic, LOL
“No mamby-pamby Sunday School Christianity like “you-know-who” from Hope?”
No joke.
We need a real CIC (Thompson), not a schoolmarm (Huckatax).
This man just doesn’t stop, does he? I am in love.
No need for Diogenes.
AMEN! WHATEVER IT TAKES!
FRED PING!
I’ll protect my own home,hearth and family by whatever means needed even if I have to choke the life out of an individual with my bare hands to protect what is my responsibility. Go Thompson! Call me if you need me.
