KSM was waterboarded six times a day for a month and lived. To the de facto head of the Republican Party, Limbaugh, this proves waterboarding is not torture. I suppose this reasoning also proves that John McCain was not tortured in Vietnam.

I did not realize that, if water boarding is torture, my brother was guilty of torture. I mean all those times in the pool holding my head under water for extended lengths of time, i should turn him in now. This kind of atrocity cannot continue, his ass should be in jail.

Does anyone have the number for 911?
Or should i turn him in to the NSA or amnesty international or who?

Limbaugh is an idiot. I can't wait till McCain has a word on this.
Anybody who listens to Limbaugh or thinks he has any relevance is also an idiot.

I understand testicles can be burned everyday with a hot poker and the victim will not die. This is therefore not torture.

Rush Limbaugh---I wouldn't leave him alone with my children.

You left out all those swirlies you got in middle school.

Chickenrancher-
McCain won't challenge Limbaugh. No one in the Republican Party will -- unless they apologize immediately and say their words were misunderstood, that is.

Maybhe if hat fat bastard had to endure it just once He would think differently. I hazzard a guess that when the water hit his nose however he would think that was liquid oxycontin and start snorting it up.

Larry

Unfortunately i was the one giving the swirlies so i should be prosecuted as well. Thank goodness for internet anonymity.

"testicles can be burned everyday with a hot poker and the victim will not die. This is therefore not torture."

No one wants to know about you and your boyfriends "kinks."

McCain does disagree with Fat Boy. But then again, he has nothing to lose and really doesn't owe the GOP anything.

From Fox News this morning - "It's unacceptable," McCain said, adding: "One is too much. Waterboarding is torture, period. I can ensure you that once enough physical pain is inflicted on someone, they will tell that interrogator whatever they think they want to hear. And most importantly, it serves as a great propaganda tool for those who recruit people to fight against us."

Salamandagator seems to think McCain is a pussy, Sanantonio.

Oh, so just because it would seem that many of the left buys everything their talking heads say wholeheartedly i am supposed to agree 100% with "my side."

Tell you what, 100 bucks and you can waterboard me for 5 min. Sound good?

Salamandagator-
Can we waterboard you six times a day for a month, or strip you naked and chain you to the ceiling, entering the room only to hit you when you dare to fall asleep? What about putting you in a coffin-sized box with some creepy-crawly you fear? How about if we did all of those things? We'd get permission from the Bush OLC just to make it Ok first, of course.

This just in;

Cheney; 'Waaaaa, but but but they didn't show the memos that proves we got something good out of it. Waaaaaa' 'They're classified, Waaaaaaa'.

McCain; 'You can't trust anything that anyone says under torture. They will say anything to make it stop.'

Are you asking him out on a date?

Did I happen to mention that Limplog is a big fat idiot? And I can't stand Al Frankin either.

Rush seems to not understand the difference between torture and murder.

So Rush will understand the difference I will put it in a perspective he might understanding.

Listening to his comedy hour radio act is torture.
When people who take him seriously snap and turn on public officials, that is murder.

We waterboard our troops for training!

The friggin congress was oversighting this and no one said a word that anyone was waterboarded to this extent?

Someone is lying.

Why didn't KSM's attorney scream this from the hilltops?

Maybe because it didn't happen.

Murphy-
I see even you have a problem with this. It simply can't be true, but it is.

Maybe because it didn't happen.

Right. When forced with incontrovertible fact, don't bother to examine your premise. Wow.

Murphy-
Here's a copy of the Bush OLC memo, in case you wanted to see it:

Sorry to hear that the terrorists blew up your town and killed everyone in it. Oh, my bad - that didn't happen because the guys standing between you and death poured water down a mass murder's nose until he told his secrets.

What a disconnect from reality! Are you telling me that if a child molester took your child and refused to tell where it was - that you would not water board him as many times as it took to get the information?

If the answer is yes, why don't you care as much about the children who would have died in the attacks that were thwarted by the water boarding?

Sorry to hear that the terrorists blew up your town and killed everyone in it. Oh, my bad - that didn't happen because the guys standing between you and death poured water down a mass murder's nose until he told his secrets.

Ah, Dershowitz's infamous "ticking time bomb" rationale fer torture.

It's bullshit.

Never been a recorded case of torture saving lives that can be confirmed.

What a disconnect from reality! Are you telling me that if a child molester took your child and refused to tell where it was - that you would not water board him as many times as it took to get the information?

How do you that the individual is a child molester? How do you know that he's the molester who took yer kid?

Did you torture the confession out of him?

Cos if you did you have diddly squat except you are now the moral equivilant of a child molester.

America is supposed to be better than that.

If America is truly a torture state then it is a rogue state and thus the 9/11 bombers were correct to assess the US as evil and thus you have just justified their attack by yer own actions.

If you hafta become yer enemies in order to defeat yer enemies then you have already lost.

Get it?

There is never a good enough excuse to justify torture.

EVER.

Learn that.

Be Well.

Our enemies cut the heads off of people on video. Our enemies do not obey basic value of life etiquette. Our enemies fly planes into buildings filled with innocent men, women, and children. Our enemies can be forced to tell their secrets. And if they don't want to be forced to tell their secrets, they should stop having them.

So you think they'll tell you only the truth when tortured? No, they will lie or tell you anything to make it stop. They'll send you off on wild goose chases:

Once again, Boy-duh, a limp-wristed liberal, is telling us what Rush Limbaugh said on his show.

You fruitcakes and your fascination with the man is what drives his popularity.

Once again, Boy-duh, a limp-wristed liberal, is telling us what Rush Limbaugh said on his show.

"If somebody can be water tortured six times a day, then it isn't torture. Can we just establish that? If somebody can go through waterboarding 183 times, six times a day, which is a little bit hard to believe anyway, but let's acknowledge, let's just say it's true for the sake of it, because whatever the left-wing blogs print and publish, the Drive-By Media's going to say is true anyway. Six times a day, it means you're not afraid of it, it means it's not torture. If you found a way to withstand it, it can't possibly be torture."

If you found a way to withstand it, it can't possibly be torture.

Yeah, take that John McCain!

McCain; 'You can't trust anything that anyone says under torture. They will say anything to make it stop.'

Intelligence gained from torture was used to justify the invasion of Iraq.

Oh yeah

Rush Limbaugh is a drug addict.

Rush Limbaugh is a drug addict.

And possibly a torture addict as well.

Rush Spoke "Now, you stop and think about this: 183 times, six times a day, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed was waterboarded. His lawyers never complained. He didn't complain to whatever civil rights organizations there were. And I'll tell you, the bottom -- if somebody can be water-tortured six times a day, then it isn't torture. Can we just establish that? If somebody can go through waterboarding for 183 times, six times a day -- which is a little bit hard to believe anyway, but let's acknowledge -- let's just say it's true for the sake of it, because whatever the left-wing blogs print and publish, the drive-by media is going to say is true anyway. Six times a day, it means you're not afraid of it. It means you -- it's not torture. If you have -- if you've found a way to withstand it, it can't possibly be torture."

Wow, old KSM didnt complain to those civil rights organizations to which he didnt have access. His lawyer, which he didnt have didnt complain either.

your not afraid of something forced on you.

ok got you rush

Rush Limbaugh is a drug addict.

So that changes the fact that limpwristed lefties like Boyd are telling us what Limbaugh had to say, once again?

The left's fascination with him is strange. Are you guys Rushophobes?

I guess elections and marriage aren't torture.

You fruitcakes and your fascination with the man is what drives his popularity.

#27 | Posted by 101Chairborne

No, you lazy-assed rigth-tards that won't clean up your own mess because to clean it up, you will first have to acknowledge that it exists, are the ones that drive his popularity. the knee-jerk liberals see themselves, rightly or wrongly, as doing a community service by exposing him to the light of day.

add to that the rednecks that have an IQ of about 85, who you probably wouldn't even admit into your own house. This is the same group that thinks Palin is the best politician since Hitler.

I'm not saying you are in that group but answer me this. Would you go to war not knowing anything about the enemy, if you had a chance to know something before-hand?

"add to that the rednecks that have an IQ of about 85, who you probably wouldn't even admit into your own house.

Posted by Lipzoidial at 2009-04-21 01:47 PM"

Why? - Are you saying he's afraid they would make him look dumb in his own house?

Sure buttercup, whatever you say. Isn't there yet another Palin thread for you freaks to obsess over as well?

If I want to know what Limbaugh has said or done, I'll log on to the Retort and wait for some dumb-ass like you to tell me.

He's popular because you freaks hang on his every word.

Would you go to war not knowing anything about the enemy, if you had a chance to know something before-hand?

You think you're "going to war" with Limbaugh...How cute. By "cute" i mean delusional and pathetic.

OK, then you turn around and attack an innocent country and torture innocent people, murder innocent people, blow up and kill a hundred thou innocent civilians (women, children, old folks). The only dif. is that most of that mass murder happens from a nice, clean cockpit. What was your point again?

He's the leader of the opposition party for crying out loud! Of course we are interested in where he is going to lead you guys.

First, this is one of the stupidest things to come out of Flush's mouth in a long time, and there's a lot to choose from!!

2nd. Let me waterboard Flush. If he lasts longer than 5 or 10 minutes before stainng is BVD's I will legally change my name to Flusbot's Bitch.

No, we can't just believe a drug addicted pedophile, with the IQ of a turnip, actually has a National radio show.

I hate Rush more than anyone so I have to agree with that. But it does beg the question: If a fuck-up like Rush makes millions with his show, what does that say about Chapter 11 Air America? LOL

LOL, huh? Newsflash Goatfat, People magazine sells more than six times more copies than The Economist. What does that say? People who read People and listen to Rush are fucking idiots. There are a lot of them around, you know.

Spud - even you should be better than this. Very poor form to use the broadest paintbrush in the bin. Smells dishonest.

"People survived Hiroshima and Nagasaki. That proves the a-bomb wasn't a weapon. People survived auschwitz. That proved the Holocaust was just a fraternity prank."

Rush

PS: I could have survived more non-torture than that sissy McCain, but my butt boil hurt so much, I couldn't serve.

"Chickenrancher-
McCain won't challenge Limbaugh. No one in the Republican Party will -- unless they apologize immediately and say their words were misunderstood, that is"

You got that right, somehow along the way, teh McCain that I liked was replaced by a moronic robot with an indecision chip placed in it's mainframe. He is lost, time to vote teh 149yr old out.

If we just took away Limpwrists oxycotin and his steak, he would be crying about torture. Or better yet, make him listen to himself on a looped recorder 24/7 now that is real torture.

LM

People - there are TWO n's in the word "oxycontin." Just sayin...

This "Tick-a-gay" surely is another nom de guerre for the bogus paratrooper. But if i had to choose between waterboarding or listening to Rush six times a day ... well ... as Jack Benny said, "I'm thinking, I'm thinking"! herm

People - there are TWO n's in the word "oxycontin." Just sayin...

And, since it is a registered trademark, a capital "O".

"Six times a day, it means you're not afraid of it, it means it's not torture. If you found a way to withstand it, it can't possibly be torture."

How much any individual can withstand is not how you define torture.

Rush is using dunking a witch until she drowns logic, or rather - rational for murder.
