That's right....we waterboard our enemies, and that isn't torture. Torture happens when bones get broken, nails get ripped out, skin is burned or removed, or testicles get crushed. Torture leaves scars (assuming that you live).
I don't understand how it is that we have come to let our enemies (McCain, Obama, etc) use their defination of torture.
Shep is a widdle pouty wuss. Between he and Judith Miller, Cliff May couldn’t get a word in edgewise.
So sanctimonious. So self-righteous. So indignant.
I wonder how either of them would feel if they had to face imminent death unless someone in an adjoining room gave it up to Jack Bauer.
I have a grown son in Washington DC and another one living in the upper west side of Manhattan. Don’t talk to me about caterpillar fear, and that we should be sure to inform the perp that this widdle caterpillar is not poisonous.
He lost me months ago when he was doing a bit on Hamas and had to add the gutteral pronounciation KKKHHAMMMAAAASSSS!
He looked and sounded like an idiot!
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
Why is he tortured, did Fox run out of hair gel?
I remember the morning of 9/11 and the absolute horror that we all felt as the terror that these men planned took root in America. How much more did the 3,000 plus victims of these butchers of women and children suffer compared to the techniques that were used to prevent another attack on our homeland? These animals deserved to be slowly skinned alive and packed in salt!
Yet the loony left constantly cries about FOX being “hard right.”
And some of those blondes they have are wishy-washy liberals and that’s FOX’s business. Just don’t tell me they’re conservatives, because they aren’t.
Why is this twerp the anchor on a network that promotes itself as “fair and baanced”? How is he any different from the clowns at ABC, CBS, CNBC, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, etc.?
It is a known fact that Smith and Anderson Cooper have something in common. Wink, wink. As if you didn’t know what I mean.
Anyone have a link?
The funny thing is I used to switch over to Beck on CNNHN at 7. Now I let my daughter watch Disney from 7-8.
Ailes needs to dump him from primtime. Move Beck into the lineup.
I interpreted him to mean that the definition of torture has not ever been determined, so on that basis we don’t torture.
Depends what the definition of Torture is. Watching Smith for 5 mins is torture to some. He is being used as a tool by changing the definition of torture.
Pray for America
I think Obama is counting on Cheney's unpopularity to cover for a lynching. There are many Dems that knew about the water boarding and said nothing. If they think they are going to put on a show trial and not have anarchy, I think they are misunderestimating the 50,000,000 people that didn't vote for the messiah. Bush was right on this one and kept us safe for 7 years and basically won 2 wars with no help.
She(p) is all emotion. I strongly suspect if he were asked immediately after 9/11/01 what he thought of waterboarding Al Qaeda suspects to gather intel he’d have enthusiastically supported it. And even today with his pre-9/11 attitude, if he were honest with himself, he’d heartily support torturing suspects using any means necessary if he thought it’d save the lives of himself or his loved ones. Sheppie is a hypocrite, a drama queen, and a dumbass.
Ever since he started dating Anderson Cooper, he’s been going down hill.
Bug eyed fool
Sadly, Ailes has backed this idiot up, and stated Shep is his “lead news guy.”
