Tell it to Jack Bauer

A Senate report finds that torture doesn't work.  Freepers faith in barbarism will not be shaken, however:

rockinqsranch takes a flippant tone:
Democrats have proven to us all they are the enemies of truth.
Waterboard them.
Like three Freepers make that exact same joke. jmcenanly asks a deeper question than he means to:
If torture doesn’t work, why has it been so popular over the years?
 Tula Git cites authority:
The history of torture is that it extracts the answer you want, not the correct answer. There are more effective, less distasteful methods.

 Tell it to Jack Bauer
jveritas knows the TRUTH:
The report is just a LIE. The reason of course is political like anything else with the socialist democrats. For these maggots power and politics trump everything else including national security.

 jveritas follows up with some mouldy Bush-era talking points:
  First of all “water boarding” and “sleep deprivation” is not torture. Second give me examples of the more effective methods.
 rlmorel has studdies the Commies, so he's an expert:
Actually, the downside (according to what I know about communist torture of our POW’s) is not that people give you the information you want to hear, it is that they give you everything including the truth, things you don’t want to hear, and things that are lies.
It makes it difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff.
But, everyone breaks and talks. Everyone, except for some extremely rare examples.
Mariner has been waterboarded, so he knows better than some stupid panel:
I have been on the Waterboard in SERE school.
I can assure all of you that anyone who is worked on the Waterboard with earnest will tell anyone everything they know.
Every time.
No human could resist a concerted effort to extract information under that duress.
Nobody.
So, if this is the contention of the Senate Committee, either the captured persons didn't KNOW anything, or the Senate folks are lying.
It can be only one or the other.
  BilLies's confirmation bias is patient:
I will wait for the Minority Report that will provide the TRUTH.
Kinda like the Zimmerman and Trayvon Media episode.

  1. Ozy, thank you for Freeper Madness. Lately I just can't read FR. Thanks for doing it for me. It's so nuts that it hurts my head to read it.

  2. Freepers are complaining about Bill Clinton campaigning for President Obama.

    I'm sure President Bush could help Romney (cough) so why doesn't Romney ask Bush to campaign?

    It's a level playing field. Get George Bush out there on the campaign trail!

    LOL.

    1. Is G.W. Bush still alive? I haven't heard a peep from him since he snuck out of the White House
