"McCain said. "Every man has his breaking point. I had reached mine."

I saw this goofy Rino on TV the other day promoting his "No Torture" bill saying that torture does NOT work.

Citizens of Arizona... PLEASE vote this baboon out.

I've never believed the line that "torture doesn't work". If I self-examine myself, I know exactly what I would do if somebody hooked a car battery to my testicles; they would quickly hear anything they wanted to hear.

I imagine that a professional intelligence officer can be trained how to resist torture quite effectively. And I imagine that our military gets some lite flavor of similar training. But I doubt the jihadists we are up against have received any such training. They maybe fanatics and that counts for something but I believe their culture also predisposes them to breaking under torture. I think all this "torture does not work stuff" is just a PC argument that really does not stand-up to real world scrutiny.

Despite whether or not torture is effective or not, the question of whether it is something America can morally tolerate is a different issue. Personally, I believe it depends on the enemy (perhaps it is OK to torture terrorists but not enemy soldiers in compliance with Geneva conventions) and the circumstances (ticking bomb scenario). I don't think we should tie the President's hands and I think we should rely on our Democratic system to put reasonably morally fit people into the Presidency.

Some of us tried last year but, unfortunately, not nearly enough. We're stuck with him for awhile.

We will, this is incredible, he is admitting he was broken in jail and squealed like a pig.
I would have died trying to escape
