THE DEFINITION OF TORTURE:
TELLING TERRORISTS TO STOP BEING MEAN
BY LISA RICHARDS
October 16, 2007
“If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”
Winston Churchill
My favorite moment in the movie Tombstone is when Kurt Russell’s character Wyatt Earp stands in the middle of the street, rifle waving in the air, shouting to the violent gang known as the Cowboys: “You called down the thunder, well now you’ve got it…you tell them hell’s coming and I’m coming with it!”
And Russell’s character Earp goes on a vengeful hunt, killing the Cowboys for the death of his brother and their terrorizing of Tombstone.
No matter how many times I watch the movie, that one scene with Russell standing in the street shouting those words makes me throw my fist in the air and whoop a big YES!
George W. Bush standing on the World Trade Center rubble pile after 9/11 was Wyatt Earp letting terrorist know he was coming and hell was coming with him. But liberals like Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton don’t like Bush’s Wyatt ways. Bush believes in going after the terrorists and interrogating enemies is a must. To Nancy Pelosi who believes we should not harm the murderers of mankind, interrogation is unconscionable; to Hillary Clinton, it’s called “cow-boy diplomacy.”
On October 5, 2007, President Bush accomplished the impossible; he made comments to the press that actually caused Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to raise her frozen-in-place forehead: “when we find somebody who may have information regarding a potential attack on America, you bet we’re going to detain them, and you bet we’re going to question them, because the American people expect us to find out information…so we can help protect them. That’s our job.”
Not according to Nancy who seems to be more concerned with the preserving the lives of Islamic murderers than actual human beings. You see, Nancy wants a definition of what Bush considers interrogation.
Well, locking the thugs of earth alone in a room with you Nancy would be considered torture in my book, and perfectly acceptable. They would all commit suicide. Better yet; why not arrest militant gays who invade Catholic Masses? Now that would be intolerantly torturous.
By the way, how could any form of torture be harmful to a race that desires suicide? Islam preaches and teaches death by suicide combined with murder to all non-Muslims. So why would torturing turbanites be so bad? After all, they do love to torture Jews and Christians. Maybe they would enjoy a little reciprocation.
Not in Nancy Pelosi’s book of Face Lifts and Fatwas.
On Sunday October 7, 2007, Fox News’s Chris Wallace interviewed the Speaker of the House on many issues, including Bush’s comments on interrogating the enemy. Bush’s interview two days earlier came as some sort of shock to the woman in charge of Congress.
Apparently, the “longest-serving member of Congress on the intelligence Committee” and ex Officio Leader does not get briefings on secret memos all other members of Congress receive. Pelosi claims she was never briefed in 2005 on any Department of Justice secret memos concerning interrogation. “All I know is what I’ve read in the New York Times.”
Dear fellow Americans, if you are wondering why the Democrat Congress and liberals in general are so screwed up, not doing one thing they claimed they would do since taking control of the House, it’s because the New York Times, not the President of the United States, has been hired to brief the Speaker of the House.
I wonder if that’s how Bill Clinton figured out he actually did have sex with that woman—reading it in the New York Times.
You know, Nancy Pelosi should ask the New York Times where Osama bin Laden is since the Times seems to be her only resource of intelligence and communication.
Oddly enough, on October 9, 2007, the House passed a bill for wiretapping the enemy, but Nancy is worried about interrogating those we find trying to kill us. It might not be kind treatment, and we wouldn’t want to be mean to the bad guys.
Pelosi told Wallace she “appreciates the value of intelligence to protect American people,” and admits she wants the best our CIA and military can get, but Nancy wants the president to understand America must follow “international standards” concerning interrogation. The U.S. must follow the law if the U.S. wants to appear good in the eyes of the world.
Having an excellent reputation is more important than the U.S. making the bad guys tell the CIA where and when the next attack is going to happen.
God forbid we insult the Russians.
So what exactly would Nancy consider torture? Well, according to what she told Wallace, torture would be “a combination of head-slapping, water-boarding, and exposure to extreme temperatures.” “There is a legal definition of torture,” Pelosi told Wallace, “that I believe this would fit,” further stating that the president has been reported in the press as saying the above are not torture, and “I just can’t give you an informative answer on that.”
Once again Nancy Pelosi claims to get her information from the press. Isn’t that what we the people do? Pelosi is the Speaker of the House of Congress and gets her information the way the people do? God help us; this woman is in charge.
To all you voters in California who reelected that woman to Congress, you deserve to be hit so hard in the heads you’re mother’s will feel the pain in their wombs.
Slapping terrorists in the head is not torture. Water-boarding is not torture. The person doesn’t drown; they only think they will. And exposure to extreme temperatures; oh please. I’m from New England. We have 100 degree humid summers instantly followed by chilly autumns, rapidly followed by freezing, damp, cold winters into rainy damp springs. If we new Englanders can handle those extremes, so can the mucks of martyrdom.
I’m so sick and tired of democrat leaders and their liberal ideals of treating all people equal. Terrorists are not equal to human beings. They don’t deserve fair treatment. Terrorist deserve the same as they give—death. If democrats get elected into the White House next year, Gitmo Bay will shut down and every terrorist in there will be set free to wreak havoc upon mankind. If Hillary or the anti-military Obama win the election, Nobel Peace Prizes will be handed out to every Muslim who succeeds in blowing up as many Jews and Christians as possible. If any of the democrat candidates win the election, say goodbye to wire-tapping the enemy and hello to another 9/11. If people allow a democrat to reenter the White House, expect Islam to infiltrate America further with greater freedom granted by liberals who love the enemy, want a socialized union with Mexico and Canada, and a Supreme Court answering to The Hague.
In my last piece I slammed Bush’s catering to Muslims and Ramadan when he should have denounced Islam and invited ex-Muslims to speak out on the evils this enemy is plotting against the world. I will always disagree with that bad move on Bush’s part. Yet despite my being against any Christian or Jew recognizing Muslims as equals and celebrating their holiday of fast and blast, I have to give Bush credit for keeping America safe from another attack. I may disagree with him on immigration and cow-towing to Islam, but he’s tough on terror and we’re safe because he let’s the CIA and military do their job—interrogate the enemy and get information to prevent another blood-bath.
I can’t discount the president on an excellent job fighting the War on Terror. I can discount Nancy Pelosi, because Pelosi is trying her best to block any and all means of extracting information which may prevent Americans from dying at the hands of mankind’s enemy. Pelosi knows better; she is a leader and her job is to protect the people of California and the halls of Congress, which must protect and create laws to protect the American people, not the enemy.
Nancy Pelosi and her fellow democrats—with the exception of the patriotic Joe Lieberman—are trying to reverse U.S. laws and override the Supreme Court to provide amnesty to massacring brutes. On top of that, the face-lifted diva of demoflop is trying to pass a genocide bill. Oh yes; that will definitely prevent another Hitler/Stalin/Saddam/Milosevic/Ahmadinedjad from ever murdering mankind. If Nancy says: no more genocide you naughty boys, evil will obey the Congressional Frisco queen.
Americans need to wise up and realize interrogation of the enemy is essential if we are to survive. Americans must do everything possible to fight Pelosi and legislators who want to protect the nihilistic Barbary’s resurrected and returned. Any Congressman or Senator who would vote down interrogation bills must be voted out of office. That includes Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi who gets all her vital, secret information via the New York Times.
On the up side, San Francisco’s militant gays can desecrate as many Catholic Masses as possible without arrest and interrogation.
