On another occasion the air conditioner had been turned off, making the temperature in the unventilated room well over 100 degrees. ... not only was the temperature unbearably hot, but extremely loud rap music was being played in the room, and had been since the day before, with the detainee chained hand and foot in the fetal position on the tile floor.'

Other than being chained, this was pretty much what my life was like for the three years I lived aboard ship when I was in the Navy. And no orange-glazed chicken for me!

Nobody mentions that THEY WERE LAYING IN THEIR OWN FILTH!!!! It's conveniently left out that we weren't wiping their butts for them when they were confined.

Depending on the ship, it was the same for me. Sometimes extremely cold and others extremely hot. No orange glazed chicken for me either except the McCandless had an excellent baker and the cooks could whip up some excellent soups.

And .. when people were concerned about our military having to wear all that heavy gear in 130 degree weather ..?? I don't recall any of these dems thinking this was torture of our own military.

But .. when it's 100 degrees for a terrorist - that is torture. This is lunacy. The dems have finally fallen over the edge.

Yeah, no kidding. Gotta keep those berthings cold, though, or they start to smell like feet and a$$.
