In my book, anyone who supports torture, deserves to be tortured.

And if you disagree...I don't care.

If you would be more willing to hand over the contents of your wallet if I threatened to rip off your fingernail with a pair of pliers then torture, at least at some level, does work.

LOL, OK, thanks for the opportunity to make the point a second time.

You said this about Brennan: "Brennan?......he had no CIA experience before he was appointed" and "Your link is about Brennan, Panneta(both political appointees without previous CIA experience)"

That is in fact false. Brennan spent 25 YEARS IN THE CIA, including stints in senior positions serving Clinton and Bush II. Highlights:

I stand corrected on Brennan's experience in the CIA after researching it on my own. However I still see him as politicized.

Those of us who do support waterboarding, so called torture, only support it under extreme circumstances and as a last resort. Such as when it was used on three specific high level al queda terrorists. If it's okay to waterboard our own US Navy Seals as part of their training, it was quite okay and in fact legal to use it against three of the bloodiest terrorists in history. They had just killed 3000 Americans.......And if you disagree...I don't care.
 
Of people who support torture? Yes.

Of everyone else? No.
