Comments on: Waterboarding More Frequent, Memos Suggest

Alleged Sept. 11 Mastermind Waterboarded 183 Times; Obama To Speak At CIA

ST: just carry on with your mission and you will succeed in a way most americans would not dream of. I am a member of the U.S. military and will defend this nation to my death, but it's always good to question. I wish members of the military would have questioned the orders of Lt. Calley.

Fellow citizen, thank you, but if I were as intelligent as I believed, then our nation would already have been saved.

But I must face the same reality that I demand of others.

And the reality is that our nation has already stepped well over the threshold of destruction, and none of my prose, or physical protest, has done anything to stop it.

russ, your post just shows that you do not belong on an intelligent blog. why don't you go and blog on a sponge bob square pants site.

[EJStnns]

russ, you're the typical liberal idiot that thinks that this country's leadership should pay the price for leading this country. what are you going to say when Obama is being impeached?

[norcalruss]

A solution for the budget deficit. Have a traveling road show that waterboards Bush, Cheney, Rummie, Wolfie and others and uses the poceeds to pay off the federal deficit.

Fellow citizen, he has the room.

And he has not, and will not, smite them.

For he has gained that most corrupting element, ultimate power.

And failed the test of all who have wielded it .

For the first principle of good, is to not do evil.

Of that I have no doubt.

But his time in office thus far has only served to protect the crimes of Bush and his henchmen, and enrich the billionaires who brought him to power.

In the dark back streets of what was once America.

"Torture is not confusing at all. The stench of the vomit and blood and urine and feces expelled by its victims, and their wrenching cries for mercy or death, are clear evidence that abomination is working its evil will.

No one can deny, or claim ignorance, of its stain.

And its stain upon America will never be erased.

WHEN CAN WE WATERBOARD RUSH LIMBAUGH THATS ALL I WANT TO KNOW
Posted by mrswilson1944 at 8:45 PM : Apr 20, 2009

+++++++++++++++++++++++

Yeah!!!!!!!! I?d like to see him water-boarded along with that fat pig Cheney, George Dumb@ass, Ronald Dumsfeld and the big eared Jew who pushed the war against Iraq, Paul Wolfowitz. If they had a traveling water board show and charged for tickets the proceeds could be used to help pay off the deficit left by this gang of scum. LOL!!!

[norcalruss]

George Bush and Richard Chaney, Donald Rumsfield, Alberto Gonzalez and all their buddies who allowed this torture should be arrest and tried for treason against the human race. They are no better that Adolph Hitler, the SS, Himmler and all the Nazis who killed thousands, perhaps millions of people in Europe. How many people have the CIA and American soldiers killed during torture of prisioners.?? I think there are hundreds of people who have died being tortured when Bush and Chaney were running our country. Now it is time for some people who know about this to come forward. We, the legal citizens of America deserve to know the facts on just how many people have died while being tortured in prisons that we run. How many thousands of American soldiers have died in Iraq and Afganastan in this illegal war that Bush started? How many innocent women and children have died just by being in the wrong place at the wrong time when a bomb blew them to pieces. No wonder our soldiers are coming back with mental problems. ...and it's going to get worse. Obama ran for President and said he would bring our troops home, instead he is sending more...shame on him. Shame on him for flying around the world instead of staying here and taking care of us, the American people. Obama bowing down to the Saudi King was disgusting. Now, we have another four years of inferior leadership....I'm too old to live to see a great President in my lifetime. I am ashamed of my government leadership.

+++++++++++++++++++

I agree, all of these bas@ards who approved and authorized torture should either be tried for war crimes or have the torture they authorized be administered to them. These people are just as bad as the Nazis, and used as flimsy an excuse to invade Iraq as Hitler used to invade Poland. They are all scum and I thought under an Obama administration at least there would be an inquiry. Sadly, that is not looking to be the case, and the war pigs will go free. Sad.

Fellow citizen, I'm sorry that you feel I was relevant when Bush was our tyrant, but became irrelevant when Obama assumed the same position.

"Obama is bordering on being a helper to some of our enemies. Is he or isn't he going to allow water-boarding of humans? The world is watching. I am ashamed that our government has stooped to being just like Hitler and his SS troops. The murdured and maimed millions of Jews and other people in Europe. All just to make a great society for themselves...NO, just to murder and maime and make money by taking everything from the people the put in the prisons and the gas chambers. I wonder if the American's who have tortured have actually killed anyone by waterboarding or some other form of torture. All torture does is make people say what you want to hear, not necessarily the truth. What does all the waterboarding teach our young people.? They can torture other people and it's o.k. to do so...after all Bush and Chaney o.k. it as did the military General's. How do these soldier's and CIA people look at themselves in the mirror each day? I am truly ashamed of who ever did this torture. I want to know who they are and where they are?? I want to know where the torture took place. I want Obama to tell the American people tomorrow that we will not torture our enemy's or any peoples anywhere. God is watching!"

Eloquent and heartfelt post fellow citizen, but it does not matter what Obama says, or who is watching.

Anymore than it mattered what Bush said, or who was watching.

For our last great hope is doing the same as our last great tyrant.
