Despite the desire to frustrate the preternatural bloodlust of the moonbats, and as justified as harsh methods may have been, it is necessary to support justice taking its natural course.

I force myself to listen to NPR on a regular basis, and I could just about scream when they have a whole program on torture-related issues without ever once even paying lip service to the actual need to gain intelligence.

Um - torture does very little to obtain accurate intel. Drugs, sure. Trickery, sure. But anyone who knows anything about human response to pain knows that people will say or do just about anything to stop it. And if that means making stuff up, they make stuff up.
