Jose Rodriguez also stated for Time Magazine that such techniques made the operation possible. He ran the CIA counterterrorism center from 2002 - 2005. So I guess they lied.:rolleyes:

Perps justifying their actions, no surprise there.

I respect what junkyard dogs do, but keep them on a short leash, because specialists believe their mission takes precedence and the end justifies the means.

Obama had very little to do with this mission, other than giving the ok.

According to Yon's dispatches he was more than a little involved for months, questioning and re-questioning to make sure they had all their ducks in a row... covered all contingencies. I wouldn't expect him to swim the Atlantic with a Bowie knife in his teeth.

I give him much less credit than those in the field, who set the stage before him who did the work and get none of the glory. As it should be....

Well duh, that's what he said.

Quote:

Just don't try to get re-elected on the event or I and many others will crucify you for your attempts to exploit the event that you had very little to do with....

You'll do jack shit, except piss & moan, spew hate, and vote against him, just like before.:p:

Well put, but I don't really see the value in engaging with tehmurk no learning will take place.

Q2. Is Barack Obama a Muslim?
A. I don't know, he says he's a Christian but he looks like one of 'em Muslims to me.

For a while we were getting "push polls" where the questioner would call and ask something like "Upon learning that Infinite Monkey has fifteen restraining orders out against her for internet stalking would that make you more or less likely to nominate her to be a mod who would then have access to your IP?"

Of course you aren't saying this is true, but you've planted the seed in people's mind, and for a lot of my fellow country persons, the elevator doesn't quite make it to the top floor...

14. Great investigation techniques, wannabes.

Uh, yeah. Listen, Infi there's something I forgot to tell you...

I'll give you that much, oh and I will help crucify him if he tries to use it to get re-elected. :thumb: :D

And replaced by who? Ron Paul? Tim Pawlenty? Michelle Bachmann?

C'mon - Merc is a Santorum supporter (pun intended)

I don't practice Rick Santorum
Though I got some on my ball
If I had a million Weiners, well
Rick would chop them all

If Huckabee quit the Republican race, why the fuck is he calling me 3 or 4 times a week?

I would <NOT> vote for a single one of those fucks. Include Obama in that list.

Please clarify this statement, mercy. I don't understand. Thanks.

Thanks for pointing out my missing bit. Cheers.
