Quit asking whether waterboarding is torture, dammit.
Edited on Fri Jan-25-08 12:55 PM by rateyes
When Mukasey shows up for his first hearing as AG, he needs NOT to be asked if waterboarding is torture. The US has prosecuted people, and found them guilty of torture because they waterboarded people.

State the fact: Waterboarding is torture, Mr. Attorney General, and we damned well expect you to prosecute those who have done it, and those who have ordered it. Period. And, if you don't, we'll begin impeachment proceedings on YOUR ass!!

Quit pussyfooting around with these assholes. It's been said, "When the law is on your side, argue the law. When the facts are on your side, argue the facts."

Well, in this case both the facts and the law are on our side. So, tell Mukasey to get off his sorry ass and do his job of law enforcement.
