If 'enhanced interrogation' were used on US soldiers by the enemy would the neocons call it torture?

Sorry. The neocons are too busy burning tapes and shredding papers to take time for your questions.

3. remember at the start of w's little war

When the other side captured some of our troops and put their pictures on TV and the Neocons went wild about how that violate the Geneva Convention. (and it did)

My how times have changed... (now pretty much nothin does and its ok by them)

5. Yep,

In a 70's, Disco, Studio 54, cocaine driven heartbeat....Faster than a quail sighting, power mad, neocon can shoot a Democratic lawyer...Faster than a torture cheering,toe-licking,minority optimizing Attorney General can lose his memory in front of congress.More swiftly than a unitary executive can veto the chance of medical care being delivered to a critically ill child. More rapidly than WMD's disappeared from the areas "just slightly to the north, east, and south of Baghdad....They will be more surprised than Bush was to find that someone hung a large "Mission Accomplished" banner behind his flight suit.As surprised as Condi Rice to find terrorists might use "airplanes as missiles"...Maybe ALMOST as surprised as Colin Powell was to find himself punked at the UN...Point being that the "truth" in this administration and among their supporters is as malleable as day-old Wrigley sticks and half as nourishing....They are liars and they practice Kabuki...The promises of a whore are more sincere and their relationship similar...chop away the cash and count your relationships in the sorrowful morning sun...They suck, and lie, and take cash, and are gone in the sunlight...I feel dirty, but somehow relieved.

6. Depends. If it was done by the Saudis or the Israelis, it'd be a misunderstanding.

If it were done by the Iranians or Syrians, it'd be cause for WW3.
