So he admits "we have the ability to be very, very uncomfortable for a very, very long time (in cold water) with no medical problem". Not seeing a problem here ...like at all....
Are we really going to use the standard that they can't be "uncomfortable" when being interrogated?
Another article I saw recently was debating whether or not we could lie to detainees in interrogations.
Kind of makes me wonder if they have a right to a Slushy Machine, cable TV, a lazy boy, and a personal masseuse as well.
Maybe we can trick them into thinking they've gone to heaven to get them to talk? Or would that be torture because they would be dissapointed when they find out their not really dead? Oh and I suppose that would be lying to them...so that is out too...
The interrogation issue has become a joke at this point. With the Cheney memos being released recently and unequivocally and undeniably proving Cheney's assertions that EITs and only EITs were effective in getting information people might as well just say what they really mean. That they are against interrogations of any worthwhile kind and would rather leave us open to attack than trouble their pretty little heads with the horrors of a mildly uncomfortable terrorist.
Sorry if I'm in a particularly blunt mood this afternoon but lets get real. Care-bears, lolipops, and rainbows are more intimidating then the liberally envisioned interrogation methodology. That's not even meant facetiously, people actually say that playing children's music is "going to far".
