"we lost the torture debate completely"

[SomethingFishy]

28. Actually it's not even close...

When I go to the link where the actual poll numbers are posted by the Washington Post it says 59% approve..

""By a margin of almost 2 to 1 — 59 percent to 31 percent — those interviewed said that they support the CIA’s brutal methods, with the vast majority of supporters saying that they produced valuable intelligence.

In general, 58 percent say the torture of suspected terrorists can be justified “often” or “sometimes.”"

The report also found that more than two dozen detainees were wrongly held, that the program was poorly managed and that the CIA misled top U.S. officials about the effectiveness of the program. Fifty-four percent of the public agrees with this sentiment, saying the CIA intentionally misled the White House, Congress and the American people about its activities.

This is bullshit propaganda. How can 59% of the people approve and 54% of the people agree that the CIA lied?
