Sad that a U.S. president actually has to say, "We Don't Torture"

[mopaul]

that a president of the united states actually has to get up on t.v. and answer questions about torture, and lie about it and actually had to say it aloud, 'we don't torture'.

here are a few suggestions for other huge lies for our president.

"We don't kill thousands of innocent people for no good reason"

"We don't rig elections"

"We don't resort to dirty tricks on our political opponents or distractors"

"We don't start illegal wars and lie to the people about why we went to war"

"We dint' spread fear with repeated phony terror attacks"

"We don't steal from the treasury", etc. etc, etc.

it's just sad as hell that a man has to stand up there on live t.v. from another nation and make a monkey out of us all by being forced to mouth the now infamous words, "We don't torture".

goddamn what a great time to be an american huh?

5. you got that right.

Would it even be sadder if Darth Cheney is keeping shrub in the dark? and he doesn't even know what is happening?
Oblivious is one thing, but deceived by the true force of evil?

7. He is a filthy lying...

cowardly POS. I expect no less from him. On the other hand, did you see Dershowitz smack down the whole torture angle that has been placed on him on the wolf-face show. He said that torture, even in his case of the bomb ticking/ justify torture example, that rwingers like to bring up, should always fall on the President's decision, and how dangerous it was to put in on the lower ranking people. I hope someone saved a clip, because he laid it all on the chimp.

9. Must be me being blonde...

So, help with this complex seeming issue for the * administration. We Do Not Torture, but we don't need a bill to ban it either? So if we don't torture why not allow the bill to go through? I know, I know I need another cup of coffee this morning, I am thinking like a rational person.

12. Forget the coffee, Debau, what you need is a big glass o' kool aid,

and then this will make perfect sense to you...

[Debau2005]

13. Thanks for the clarification!

:hi:

I don't really care for kool aid...I will just have to stay uninformed!

10. The what in the Hell does he call

The State of the Union Address, if not torture for more than HALF Of the american public?

What about his tongue? He tortures his TONGUE every time he speaks, and various other organs as well - the cracking of his jaw thirty or forty times during a single news conference is torture of his jaw hinge..

Of course HE thought HE was being tortured for having to attend a Meeting in South America without seeing his "pilly" (pillow, and I'm not kidding, he CALLS it THAT) until after 10 PM which is past his bed time where he tries very hard NOT to wake up Pickles while he furtively masterbates right next to her, now THAT is torture :)

WE meaning the ROYAL WE, as they all run around with Mice in their pockets, so if the Mouse in his pocket refuses to coerce info from another human then he's screwed for the whole torture session.. luckily the mouse is the only one in the White House with Scruples, so it's true, WE DON'T TORTURE..

We farm that out to other countries and organizations, this year they are outsourcing to WALMART for all their torture needs.. they make suspects work there for $3.87 an hour with no overtime, or health benefits :)

Asshole lying son of a bitch pigwhore.

11. What's sadder is that as he says it the whole world knows it's a lie.

Did Shrub forget the Abu Ghraib photos? (Speaking of which, shouldn't the next batch be coming out soon?)

14. really, we don't torture, we pay others to do it offshore

then we watch the videos as porn!
