Rush is on this right now about Panetta admitting waterboarding a key part of getting the info on Osama.
Then a lesser member of the regime said Panetta did not say that.
But yes, he did say that.
It was an international embarrassment for America that Bush ordered these enhanced interrogation techniques.
It was the greatest day in American history, when Obama used the information from these interrogations to order our military to enter another country unilaterally and to shoot an unarmed old man in the face.
I tried to talk with two libs in my office about this and amazingly, they wanted to talk about Valerie Plame. LOL Talk about deflecting. One of them was almost yelling at me before the 2008 election about how evil Bush/Cheney are because of waterboarding but he was whooping it up about the killing of OBL. LOL LOL Their heads are exploding.
The dems are trying desperately trying to spin this but it’s already out there. This is why, (I believe,) Bush wisely is staying away because Obama desperately needs to portray himself as the man here, if Bush had showed up Obama would treat him like he has Ryan, Paul, SCOTUS and others.
I wonder if there were any other successful sports at Club Gitmo?
Try to tell them that we may have lost WWII or at least the out come much worse if we didn’t interrogate for information on how to read the Enigma machine
This can’t be true.
We have told by the liberals for over a decade that waterboarding and other techniques never work.
Last night, an ex CIA agent said just the opposite. He said if waterboarding was what worked we would have had bin laden in 2003. Not in 2011. He is right.
Keep using it! It works.
Bookmarked!
At least Wired.com (no change to title) made a feeble attempt to update this story...
