If this guy was overseeing Waterboarding, then lets get to the bottom of it...

I never cared either way...........but you, Diver are already squirming

if you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem, right?

or are you simply going to glaze over every person in any chain of command who said nothing and insist it was all bush/cheney

Not at all...

to me this isn't a partisan issue, its ethical.

Meaning that if you were in the know about these tactics before, or while they were happening and did nothing to stop it, you are in the guilty as fukc category. I could care less if you are a democrat, republican, green, or whig....you looked the other way when people tortures humans in our nations name.

now, if this dude falls into that category, and I hear you conservatives all up in arms over this, you are being hypocrites.

Judging from your lack of response to my question, your blatant acceptance of waterboarding has left your opinion of this nominee in limbo. You have no clue what to think.


But by all means, prove me wrong, Jeremy. Take a stance.

I don't have an opinion one way or the other, your squealing is entertaining though.

of course you don't. Rush Limbaugh didn't tell you what to think yet.


let me know when Ol' Oxycontin informs you how to think, thanks pal.

first, there has to be someone 'up in arms' over this.........I am not.......like I said, I could care less either way.......unlike you who educates himself through the OPINIONS of others, I am not going to sit here and tell you that I know whether it is effective or not....its not my job....its the guy who was doing it.........I'm not going to sit here like you and sob about it even though I can't do anything about it........even if I could, I don't care anyway

you politicize this issue and then sit there and say you don't care about the politics......a 3rd grader could see through that veil
