I Thought So


But...if waterboarding is wrong and should be outlawed immediately, where is our Democratic Congress? Why hasn't the Pelosi House or the Reid Senate voted on legislation to ban waterboarding? They could vote to outlaw it tomorrow. But they choose not to.



Why is that? Is it because liberal Bush-bashers want to have it both ways until Election Day 2008?



Currently, they enjoy the benefits that come from our enemies not knowing which aggressive interrogation methods we may use. At the same time, Keillor, the harpies on The View, kooks at Dailykos.com, and others get to sneer from the sidelines and cry "Torture!" They can have it both ways.



Now. Personally, if there's a humane way to extract information from a terrorist short of waterboarding, I'm all for it. But, forgetting the Islamofascists for a moment, if your daughter were kidnapped and you had the guy tied to a chair who knew her location, who would you call first, the UN Commission on Human Rights or Jack Bauer? I thought so.
