What's not a fact. Torture is not illegal. Certain forms of torture are illegal and this has nothing to do with the Geneva convention if you are implying that. Are you saying it is not?

Precisely why they disguise themselves - albeit not very well usually. Nice visual.

You are the wierdest republican/conservative I have ran across in a while? How did you vote for President Bush being an apologetic fair bleeding heart moderate pseduo conservative?

Just curious, what political label do you classify youtrself and just what is important to you?

Are you stating as a fact known to you that the White House or an Federal Official has paid Rush Limbaugh to advocate marginalizing the hearings? Do we have that correct, that you are making that claim of fact?

Teddy Kennedy, manslaughter (1969). Media gave Kennedy a pass and covered up the facts to save Kennedy.

Michael Skakel (Kennedy cousin), rape and murder (1975). Media buried story for over a quarter of a century.

William Kennedy Smith, rape (1991). Media revealed victim's name and dragged her sexual history through the mud to save Smith.

I sense a distinct pattern!

If your personal family was in jeopardy is there anything, including physical pain tortures that you wouldn't do to keep your family from dying.

Torture I think is usually ineffective as an interrogation technique

Stress techniques - repeat after me "stress techniques".

Like altered sleep cycles (think new baby), shortened sleep cycles (again, think new baby, Midnight, 2 AM and 4 AM feedings), calling in the ex-wife and demanding more alimony or a half-dozen nagging children that want to go to Six Flags late on a Sunday ...

I suspect that is not effectual either. At some point, the guy just tells the interlocutor what he thinks the guy wants to hear, all too often. It might be effective where you know the guy knows something, and if he does not reveal what he knows that is actionable, the consequences will be painful. It needs to be something specific. But for fishing expeditions, I suspect it is counterproductive.

Did the stress cause you to confess the mistress or something?

Since 9/12 I have been saying, You need to start slamming the libs with the retort: "How many civilian deaths are acceptable to you".

Divorce this from 9/11 for a moment.

Actually the abuse at Abu Graib happened right after the contractors in Iraq were, murdered, hacked to pieces and strung up.

There were some bad actors at the prison, no doubt. But put their actions in the frame of what was happening right there, right then.

No excuse but their rage and their acting out on similar perpetrators if not the exact ones is understandable.

One way or the other it wasn't torture.

Decapitation is torture, being required to beg for your life infront of a camera is torture.

Paging Jose

I am waiting for the list of alledged Torture Practices that is condoned and promoted throughout the US Military.

I would also like to know why you think each and every "torture practice" on your list is wrong or bad or whatever problem it is that you have.

(I have a list of what was performed on me, but you first know-it-all)

TT

Democrats have to say something different or people would say "there is no difference between either parties." People like Kennedy, Boxer and ShoeHummer often look foolish trying to take the opposite view from republicans even if it does not make sense and they sound like hypocrites. The hearing was just an attempt to put on a little show and be seen on t.v. Boxer and ShoeHummer did the same thing the night before. They all love to see their own faces on t.v. They are too arrogant to know how foolish they look. Kennedy is too drunk and rich to care!

Given mere rumor of a ticking time bomb, Sen. Dayton (D-MN) ran home and hid.
