Christiane Amanpour Gets Schooled By Marc Thiessen On Enhanced Interrogation Debate

» by in: Politics-US

I have never even heard of March Thiessen before, but even though he was being double teamed by Amanpour and her guest in the interview he gave them quite a beat down:

Via This Ain’t Hell.

The amount of BS surrounding this issue is actually incredible.  I am just wondering when Amanpour and her ilk are going to investigate past Democratic Presidents that authorized waterboarding?

I continue to think that Dennis Blair provides the best viewpoint on this whole debate.

By the way let me remind everyone what torture really is.

    I still don't support waterboarding. However, Amanpour does seem to lack knowledge how waterboarding differs from 'water torture'. They should have done their research. Still, given my above stance on waterboarding, I do admit that I have no other good alternative. This is a very touchy subject and I think the debate will rage on for a very long time. On one hand it is safe and effective, but on the other, I think it is morally wrong and goes against what America stands for. I guess we all just have to work for a society where we won't have to use it, but then I'd be just dreaming.

    Funny how other sites can use the exact same segment to say it was Thiessen who got the beat-down.

    There is one other alternative. Have terrorist pants pulled down and laid on the ground. Bring out the baby pigs who think their dingdongs are nothing but a wrinkled up tit. Watch them talk when they start to think they are next to get a pig to suck their penis. Ah to be violated by a pig and to be a muslim, hehehehe.

    How do we know that water boarding or Gitmo are "recruiting tools" for any terror organization?

    If there were no waterboarding etc would there still be

    terrorists?

    Yes, they existed in droves before Gitmo, before Iraq and Afghanistan and before the first waterboard report.

    Mmm, do you remember pre-Fox News CNN, particularly during the Gulf War? It was so eager to spin the news whichever way made US Armed Forces look good, my friends and I watched the channel for comedic value.
