Unconscionable torture tactics


Will Hayden swear off torture?

You have to be kidding!

Number one; how would we know he wasn't lying?

Number two; Hayden has his head so far up Bush/ Cheney's collective butt, it will probably have to be surgically removed.

Unconscionable torture tactics Chicago Tribune:

"Senators will have a lot of questions for Gen. Michael Hayden before they decide how to vote on his nomination. But they should not confirm him or anyone else as CIA director unless, at minimum, he is willing to utter two simple words: No waterboarding.

Waterboarding is an interrogation method that involves immersing a prisoner's head in water, or pouring water over his face, to create a terrifying sensation of drowning. It's about as cruel a technique as you can devise without leaving scars.

Experts say it can cause lasting mental trauma. It's condemned by the U.S. State Department as a form of torture when it's employed by foreign governments, such as Tunisia and Kenya."
