Yes indeed, waterboarding works

What a beautiful day for chain sawing! Mid 60's. Sunshine. No wind.

And I got about 60% through cutting up, not cutting and disposing mind you, one tree.

I am beat. As I said. If this doesn't kill me it will help me.

In the meantime I am loving watching Obamie's minions stumble around. They are snatching this whole thing from the jaws of victory. Couldn't happen to nicer people.


And watching the Left chasing its collective tail over waterboarding is truly amusing.

You Lefties are always claiming that Bush didn't do this or didn't do that.

Well, we know that the "enhanced" interrogation methods used on KSM gave them the first nugget of information that allowed them to eventually catch OBL. That's per Leon Panetta, who just happens to be Obamie's CIA chief.

So it occurs to me that Bush did what any good executive does. He turned his team loose on it and then didn't worry about it. He had other things to do.

Now. Show me where Obamie made catching OBL a priority or did anything to enhance the efforts started by Bush.

And while you are at it, explain why if Obamie wanted to catch OBL he wanted to close GITMO and prosecute the CIA people who waterboarded KSM??

Face it. He woke up one day and the CIA said, "Hey we got OBL's location!"

Obamie then almost fainted because he knew he had to go after him or be finished as Prez. (Of course he is anyway, but he knew not acting would finish him.) I mean he HAD to make a decision that he couldn't blame on someone else. So he dithered and dithered, just as he did about the additional troops for Afghanistan.

Fortunately for the Seals everything went well. Now Obamie wants to meet with a SELECTED group of 911 victims.. You know. The people who haven't criticized him for his stand on the Mosque (aka Momument to the Radical Muslims Success) and trying KSM in NYC. I mean you can bet your sweet bippy that no one who might criticize The Chosen One or Queenie will get near a TV camera.

What a guy our Prez is.

If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." - Karl Popper

Waterboarding found Osma bin Ladin

Looks like the issue is settled. Even Panetta, head of the CIA, says that "enhanced interogation" gave us the inital lead that allowed us to capture OBL.

The question remains, however, is waterboarding torture?

The picture below is a shot of man jumping from the WTC towers on 9/11.

Was that torture?


The man had to choose between burning to death or jumping to his death.

And now we find many on the Left crying over OBL being killed.

Tell you what I think.

I wish we could have captured him alive. Then built a tall building, put him in a locked room with one window.

Set the building on fire and then let him choose.

Me being fair minded and all.
