After World War 2 the US prosecuted Japanese soldiers for torturing US prisoners of war. The most common type of torture the Japanese were convicted to prison for was waterboarding.

How did a method of torture recognized during World War 2 as barbaric and inhumane become acceptable and supported by the President and his judicial nominees?

How about hot wax is dropped on your nuts with intermittent jolts of pure amperage across your nipples until you confess how you tied your mother up, performed oral *** on her and penetrated her before you disappeared her. No mercy till you confess and admit to what you did.

Torture is not about getting information.
It is control, sadism and in its prettiest
dress - vengeance.

Maybe instead of Guantanamo, we could place the terrorists in the homes of some of their liberal moonbat supporters.

I''m sure both parties would enjoy that one.

And the moonbats could express their sympathy for the terrorists.

That would be well recieved by the terrorists.

And then the terrorists would chop the moonbats'' head off...

Let''s do it!

Yes, or maybe the coffee and donut technique? They always confess everything under the stress of that one...

Bush is worried that what has happened at Guantanamo Bay may lead back to the White house and be used as grounds for impeachment. I don''t think he has anything to be worried about, at least not from the gutless congress in Washington.
