Well Captain, when the Klingons capture you again, we will take it as a given that you don’t want any extraordinary measures taken to rescue you. So noted on Star Date 20090516.

"extraordinary measures." Is that something like "revenue enhancement?" If you believe in TORTURE, why not shout it from the rooftops loud and proud.....that is unless it makes you feel "uncomfortable." To me, the best evidence that government approved TORTURE is wrong is that its proponents can't even bring themselves to use the word.

Do I want to save my life even if torture is used? Possibily, I'm all to human and I want to live.

Now let me ask you a question: would you be willing, to have the federal government (now headed by Obama) intentionally TORTURE a man, woman or child as part of an effort to save you even at the risk that this man, woman, or child may be proved innocent? Governments make mistakes all the time, my friend. Just how willing are far are you willing to extend use of the torture power to save your life? Are you more importantly, are you willing to hand over the power to TORTURE (again say it loud and proud) people without either trial or charges? Do you trust the Messiah O not to misuse it and turn it against the innocent, and if so, why?
