Bin Laden Death Photo Debate Shows Obama Credibility Problem

John McCain came out against torture again today, and he says that "enhanced interrogations" did not get us the info. Looks like he's a 'maverick' again! Still waiting to hear where you stand, Bill....

My position is that torture is wrong: "The argument against torture is obvious. It has been proven not to work for one thing. On the other hand, if we do torture, what is it that sets us apart from the terrorists?" And killing bin Laden was right: "Even if there is a rule about not killing individuals in other countries who haven't had their day in court.... wouldn't f'ing bin Laden be the exception to the rule?"

You may not accept my answer, but I did answer your question previously, and yet you haven't answered any of mine, or defended your position that torture is good and killing bin Laden was bad. If this is not your viewpoint, please make it up.

And you didn't answer mine, either. It's a fallacy.

"Police who kill a unarmed murderer is in big trouble. No, bin dead is no exception."

So, you consider the war on terror a police action? You'd rather we did not invade Paki airspace? You'd rather we capture him, bring him to Gitmo and torture him with no foreseeable trial? What do you want? I like a dead bin Laden under the sea, and I'd wager most folks agree with me, if they can see through their Obama-hate glasses.

The argument against torture is obvious. It has been proven not to work for one thing. On the other hand, if we do torture, what is it that sets us apart from the terrorists?

Please Bill, regale me with your standard links and incomplete sentences/thoughts that you leave on nearly every article.

"Why is it ok to kill unarmed bin dead, but wrong to water board ? "

I ask you, why is it OK to torture, but wrong to kill bin Laden?

I'll tell ya what's tortured here.... the logic.

Even if there is a rule about not killing individuals in other countries who haven't had their day in court.... wouldn't f'ing bin Laden be the exception to the rule?

By all means, truthers, birthers, et al, please run with this logic: "Killing bin Laden was wrong. Let's torture more!"
