CIA Enhanced Interrogation Report
(Summary: Duh, They Lied.)

(Please click on the above link to open a new window and watch a bitingly funny clip from The Colbert Report)

The top news stories/ national news headlines cry out as if in agony:

"CIA misled Congress on enhanced interrogation (i.e. torture)".

Well... Duh!!!

I called the CIA's claims B.S. back then and - surprise! surprise! - they were utter and total B.S.!

How is it that I - with my total number of D.C. insider friends at "0" - am able to see right through all the official disinformation, misrepresentation and blatant lies... and, yet, hundreds (nay, thousands) of people who do have numerous D.C. insider friends Can't??

The only question everyone should be demanding an immediate answer to is this:

"When are we extraordinary rendition-ing George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld to the Hague to stand trial for war crimes and/or crimes against humanity?".

If we don't make them face Justice, we - as a nation - won't have a leg of 'moral high ground to stand on... Ever!

McCain: Torture Ineffective. Santorum: McCain Doesn't Understand Torture. Dumb-De-Dumb-Dumb

Both Senator John McCain & the Director of the CIA (who would definitely know) publicly refuted last week's rampant GOP claims which gave credit to the use of torture ("enhanced interrogation") in bringing about the death of Bin Laden.

Decidedly Un-Presidential candidate, Senator Rick Santorum's reply to McCain:
"McCain is wrong. He doesn't understand how enhanced interrogation works..."

Oh, is that so, Mr. Santorum? You have a Guinness-record-setting amount of hubris (and completely-dead/necrotic gray matter) to make the declaration that a man who - unlike yourself - has actually experienced being tortured (he endured 5 yrs. of torture when he was held as a POW in Vietnam) "... doesn't understand" torture.

Mr. Santorum's personal experience with torture: None. Unless you count how he tortures us everytime he opens his mouth.

"For pure, blind stupidity. nobody beats Santorum. In my 20 years in the Senate, I never met a dumber member." - Mark Salter - McCain Senior Staffer - 20yrs in Senate.
