Hey, How About That Blanket Pardon For Everyone Involved in Torture?
 

Ya know, just when you think it can't possibly get any more disgusting...:smokin:

What's next - giving failed banks and investment firms a trillion dollars so they can at least make good on the bonuses they owe to their top execs? :huh:

Oooops...wait, they already did that.

so true.....
 

next we have to bail out the Insurance companies

because they get paid to torture people and need some extra cash....:fury:
their hurtin bad...

1/2 our Doctors want to quit...
because the Insurance Companies are torturing them too with extra paperwork
....it's part of the Health care program now...

we need to pardon them all... as soon as possible

Girl scout next....cookie sales were way down last year

We've always tortured people - we just never admitted to it publicly. Making the use of torture public was for shock effect to people contemplating joining the insurgency or terrorist organizations - at the time, I think it was a good idea, but over the long term its had the effect of degrading our global stature.
Obama stated that he'll change the torture policy by executive order - but that's just a dog-and-pony show, we'll go back to torturing people covertly or handing them over the Turks or Egyptians to do our torturing for us.

You should watch "Taxi to the dark side". Its a documentary about an innocent man who was tortured to death, and torture in Iraq, afganistan and Guantonamo bay. Really quite disturbing, especially the fact that all the people in washington that gave the ok for this walked away free , while many soldiers were prosecuted. If you have cox cable on demand , you can watch it on the hbo section.

technology
 

it'll take about another decade unless the technology is already here but kept very top secret....
but
being able to slap someone into a machine and read their mind is going to end the need of prying out info via torture in the near future.

just in my imagination tho... :rolleyes:

Gitmo is going to be closed by executive order also.

They have to make room for everyone that is about to go to jail :buds:

I wish :hihi:

cheaper to outsource it
