29. How Insane is the Right Wing
When they defend torture.

When did torturing people, no matter the whens and whyfores, become ok?

Didn't we use to be the country who said we were better than the Soviet Union because we didn't torture people, hold them without trial, or put them in camps. I remember stuff like that. Sure the U.S. Did some nasty things in the past, but the general public line of belief was 'We aren't bad, we don't do bad things, and don't need to in order to win.'

Now they're saying 'Yeah but Torture is ok, holding people without trial is ok...'

*sigh*
