I heard someone defend the waterboarding of prisoners because
"we got valuable information" that way.
If I was being waterboarded, I'd be willing to tell you that the moon is made of cheese. Just how valuable is that information
?

that like to torture.
The irony is that if an American were tortured in another country, these same people would be screaming bloody murder.

3. numerous studies just tell him to do a goggle search
that coerced information is less then helpful, mostly because they use up valuable resources chasing wrong information

4. The idiots who bleat along with the torture champions...
...are no more aware of any "valuable information" thus obtained than we are. This is simply their coping mechanism.

Unlike what the DUchebags think, we are not like the USSR and prosecuting dissidents (like the DUmpmonkeys would do) but getting actionable information. Yes, I agree I would say that I was a DUmbass if waterboarded but we are asking what is the plan to kill innocents by the thousands. This type of information is useable, has been useable, and will continue to be useable.
I have no doubt that whan a D is president the DUmmys will want them to make sure there is nto an attack under their administration unlike the feverently hope and wish for to show Bush was wrong. They truly are dispicable people with nothing on their minds than promoting their own agenda at the expense of all else.
