The Hilarious Aspects Of Torture

[Joanne98]

The seriously psychopathic response of the right wing's Conservative media leaders, laughing at the idea of torture, as outlined in the recently released "torture memos", shows how far the right has fallen. These bloviating demagogues lack any sense of moral responsibility or social conscience. Sociopaths, of the highest order.

If the techniques are so useless, as to make these clowns laugh at the pain of others, then the techniques are ineffective any way so why use them? Yet in the next breath these same clowns, point to the dubious claim that these techniques saved Los Angeles from a devastating attack. Never mind the inconvenient fact, that the Bush administration has already said' that the Library Tower attack was thwarted in February 2002 -- more than a year before Khalid Shaikh Mohammed was captured in March 2003. What did they gain? Information that Mohammed knew they already had anyway! Which begs the question, which is it?

Are these methods of torture, serious tools to extract life saving information from recalcitrant terrorists prisoners? Or are these methods of torture, as harmless and laughable as a fraternity hazing ritual?

If their are not useless and laughable, as Limbaugh, Beck, Liddy and others claim, because, said they worked, and saved Los angeles, then they are torture and are illegal.

And if they're as harmless as a frat boys hazing then they are useless and why bother with them at all? Which all of the afore mentioned clowns say they should be used.

According to Peter Finn and Joby Warrick of the Washington Post, In 2002, "The military agency that provided advice on harsh interrogation techniques for use against terrorism suspects referred to the application of extreme duress as "torture" in a July 2002 document sent to the Pentagon's chief lawyer and warned that it would produce "unreliable information."

"The unintended consequence of a U.S. policy that provides for the torture of prisoners is that it could be used by our adversaries as justification for the torture of captured U.S. personnel,"

The Right wing has repeatedly excoriated the left as, "moral relativists", on the issue of gay rights and abortion. They have pontificated for decades, about how the fabric of this Nations "values" have been shredded by an assault of "Moral Relativism". So what is their response to the abrogation of the Constitution and America's long standing defense of "human rights"? Mockery, laughter and distain.

These phony patriots are beneath contempt. Crybaby Glenn Beck wails his crocodile tears of rage at tax hikes and the decline of America, who he claims to love so much it hurts, and laughs at the infliction of real pain on defenseless human beings, which violates the Constitution and which, is the foundational document of this nation. Will the real Glenn Beck please stand up?

These hypocrites who call themselves born again, "evangelical Christians" are the new Pharisees so bloated with their own sense of self righteousness they are blinded to the hollowness of their own reprehensible pomposity.

Let's be clear, these so called, "enhanced interrogation methods", are torture according to the Constitution, International law, the U.S. Army, and the majority of humane and civilized nations. And if you have one shred of humanity they are decidedly not funny.

God help us if these repulsive loathsome right wing fascists ever regain power.
