Why can't Bush just come out and say he wants to torture people ?

I would have a modicum of respect for this weasel if he just admited it. We know that is what he actually wants to do. Remember how hard Bush fought against the McCain amendment against torture?
Then when they lost, Bush signed a "signing statement" saying they could torture
detainees anyway.

He DID come out and say so - not publicly, but he gave the military the OK a long time ago.

By the way, there is no way I could ever respect George Bush. He is a lying hypocrite and a political puppet.


troyboy
He has admitted that he wants to do things that you would consider torture, and others would consider uncomfortable. He is looking to get congress to give him a law to make it legal.


The Gadfly
I thought he'd made it clear that's what he wants. I bet he like to watch the videos too.

Are you kidding, tell the truth for the first time since he was appointed. Not going to happen.


rallman@sbcglobal.net
Do you think the terrorists think that what we do to our captives is torture? They know what torture is, remember the beheading of Americans?

George also has 30 Felony Charges he committed with his NSA Wiretaps ... The Geneva Convention is not the "Geneva Suggestions" and George is squirming to change the rules "To define them" so he won't also face potential war crime allegations.

Who do you think it REALLY is that Bush wants to ultimately torture!?...

yeah, he has to have it his way (sigh). well, he doesn't seem to mind that if he weakens the Geneva Conventions, Iraq will have the ability to torture American troops too. It's so sad...

Torture is listening to John Kerry say anything. US special ops go through training that is similar to the special CIA prison techniques.

Look at what those terrorist vermin do.

Shut up and let the military do their job...I'm just glad you're not running things....you feel SORRY for these head-choppers? I mean 'detainees'....please...and McCain?...He's a weenie and a pain in everyones butt. Of all people, he should be FOR it.

What you are calling torture is not what most reasonable people would call torture. What Bush and most people I have discussed this with want is the ability to use tough interrogation methods. We do not want to use blow torches, electric drills and other excruciatingly painful methods that our enemies use. We do not object to loud music, sleep deprivation and uncomfortable situations if it is going to save our nation and the lives of our citizens. You would probably rather see people have to jump out of tall buildings and have their heads cut off rather than cause some discomfort to those who would commit those atrocities.

Are you trying to make another lame political statement? I have read your previous posts, and they lack substance.

They didn't teach him that cheer yet.

"Ra Ra Shissh Boom Bah, I am going to get Saddam."

"Na na nan na na na..."

"Ok gotta go to my Skuul and Bones Brunch, Bye John Kerry have fun shooting 14 year olds in the back on the banks of the Mekong Delta!"

"tra la la la la la off to Kennybunkport I go..."

the guy is a chimp, and a stooge and a liar.

He is asking congress to address the problem and give guidelines for interrogators to follow. Simple as that. You reveal an undeserved cynicism.


aj steele
The Geneva convention treaty protects only those in uniform who represent a state or country. Your bleeding heart liberal a s s wants to coddle the terrorists. Bush is right, lean on them heavy for information.


Chainsaw
You clearly do not understand the debate here. We have enemies who have information. We must get it out of them. I personally do not care how.

Everytime terrorists catch one of us, they are beaten, beheaded, burned in the streets, etc. These animals do not play by any rules. Whether we treat them nice or not, they will still behave the way they do.

Terrorists are our enemies. We have people like you worrying about whether we make them uncomfortable? So sad


Luekas
That would be a lie and then people would freak out even more.

Why don't you just come out and publicly admit that you want a nuclear weapon to detonate in a major American city.

YOU ARE A TRAITOR AND DESERVE A TRAITOR'S JUST DESSERTS.

I hope it's your family that suffers the horrors of random terrorism next, then maybe you'll change your mind about the need to gather intelligence.
