I believe when it comes to Al-Qaida leadership and operatives, anything goes. I don’t care if you put women’s underwear on their heads, or frankly, even pull out a few fingernails of those responsible for mass murder, to unmask their continuing plans for the genocide of civilized peoples.

I'll second that.

It’s called “torture lite,” it works, and I’m all for whatever it takes to get information, and yes, to punish and annihilate terrorist leadership around the world.

Agreed.

If the use of torture saves American lives, I support torture.

Right--if it's to save American lives. If it's just because some bored MP's want to get their jollies in a rather twisted way...well, that's kind of sad. But the hardcore AQ guys, I sure hope we're NOT handling them with kid gloves, especially since all the Abu Ghraib hijinks were blown out of proportion.

"Combine that with forcing them to watch Lifetime Television (the Network-of-Horrible-Things-Are-Going-To-Happen-To-You-Because-You’re-A-Woman) and I’m sure we’d have the location of bin Laden in an hour."

I totally agree with this. When my wife tunes into this channel, I ask, "Who's getting beaten, battered, or murdered?"

A couple of days of victimized, I can't do it because a man will get me women would make anyone toss their cookies ASAP.

I'm reading her book, "The Death of Right and Wrong" and I heartily recommend it! Buy one and give it to a liberal!

GREAT book. Should be required reading for any college-bound kid, especially girls who are soon to be swamped by "Womyn's Studies" types. Give them a book by a lesbian with moral values (well, mostly).

Go Tammy. She's bright, articulate and sensible. Gotta love her.

It's a shame she prefers to dittle other women. So much about her makes me think she would be a great wife and mother. But alas... it ain't gonna happen here.

There's no shortage of conservative guys who wouldn't mind trying to recruit her to "play for our team." But, no, it's not gonna happen.

If only she would re-think abortion...I think she's on the border there.

Thank you Tammy. That needed to be said.

A female Rush Limbaugh. My mom read her book and loved it.

By counterpoint, the real story of Abu Ghraib is that our military, in its greatness and commitment to free people around the world, instills in 99.9 percent of its men and women in uniform the maturity, discipline and love of country which seems to help erase the depraved elements the Left has drilled into our young people now for decades.

Amen!!!

I couldn't agree more! I think when I become Queen of the World I'll demand it be required reading for teens, LOL!

She's close to coming around, though. Hannity had her on the ropes last year; I could tell that whatever sliver of conscience she had was telling her that abortion is murder, but she still hasn't been able to completely de-program her years of feminist "pro-choice" brainwashing.

Let's not give up on her completely.

I never considered a woman's thong tossed on my head as torture...quite the contrary actually. I usually viewed that act as an encouraging bellweather of the immediate future.

Tammy is a handsome and smart lesbian.

My latest outside-the-box thinking:

If one seriously considers President Bush's talk of a war between Good and Evil in a Stephen King sort of way, then a place like Abu Ghraib begins to look like the Overlook Hotel in King's novel The Shining.

Abu Ghraib is a place where horrible things happened under Saddam Hussein's rule. Horrible things are now happening under American rule, too, although not as horrible as before. Yet.

Can Abu Ghraib be a cursed place that is better off being demolished than reused?

Tammy is spot on... the Left really hates her guts so you know she has some right htinking in there. Now if we can get the stupid media to release those sex photos maybe then it will really offend people....
