The Fundamental Flaw in the Pro-Torture Argument:


"I personally don't think that any of those things are irredeemable evil. They're stupid. They're not going to result in any intelligence. And they certainly degraded the prisoners. But it all goes back to a mind-set that there is a piece of information out there that's going to make this nightmare stop, and we can wake up and go ahead with morning in America. And it's not going to happen. But politicians are not convinced of that yet."
--Michael Scheuer

Personally I think the people in charge are both stupid and evil. And the best way for the nightmare to stop is for Adam Sandler to use that remote control to fast-forward us into November third 2008 and President Clinton or McCain.
