Torture is not acceptable at any time, to anyone, or by anyone. Unless of course the form of torture is locking someone in a room with CDs of Susan Boyle playing over … and over … and over … <\/p>\n

I’m against torture, however having said that I say waterboard all republicans, teabaggers, American Christian Taliban Terrorists and the whole previous administration with extra waterboarding for them. <\/p>\n

After all according to Republicans as voiced by Dick Heinrich Himmler Cheney’s terrorist daughter Liz, waterboarding is not torture so waterboard her at least 6 times during a twenty four hour period. <\/p>\n

Oh, I almost forgot Sean Hannity the coward who said he would be waterboarded for our troops and turned to show us the yellow streak down his back, waterboard him 6 times a day for a week then ask him if he was tortured. <\/p>\n

God Bless.<\/p>\n

I am not for torture of anyone, anywhere anytime. Today’s governmetal decisions are at best disturbing. On January 1, 2009, any adult receiving over $248.00 per month in medicaid benefits is reportedly ineligible for medicaid insurance coverage according to the a worker that approves medicaid coverage for adults. Now, follow that decision up with "Everyone will purchase insurance or risk being fined", and I have a COMMON SENSE QUESTION. Is is a prerequisite that the people who serve themselves, excuse me, us in Washington must sign an affidavit that they do not possess one shred of COMMON SENSE prior to running for the Senate or Congress. Additionally, IS ANYONE BUT ME TIRED OF THE DEMOCRAT\/REPUBLICAN GULF!! After all, I am an AMERICAN, not a republican or a democrat. HANG THE PARTIES- WHERE IS JUSTICE, HONESTY, AND EQUALITY FOR ALL IN OUR NATION. <\/p>\n

I voted ‘Other’ since I couldn’t have multiple choices.<\/p>\n

I think that GOP Leg., teabaggers, FOX news commentators, the annoying evangelicals, and anyone else that condoned, approved, and\/or encouraged torture are first on the list.<\/p>\n

I will include Wall Street CEOs on principle.<\/p>\n

I voted nobody, because I believe we have to take the high road and stand on our convictions and our patriotism. If we lower ourselves to the standard of the idiot republican’s then we are no better than they are. <\/p>\n

Torture Wall Street CEO’s with a 75% tax on any earnings above $400,000 no matter where in the world they say they earned it \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

I had selected other before I had realized that there was an option for nobody, but regardless, I would have to say that although there are numerous groups that I believe could benefit from a good torture, such as the tea party protesters, or those who rile them up, like Glenn Beck, I would have to take the high road and not torture any of them. <\/p>\n

While they may feel it is okay to violate basic human rights for the benefit of their comfort level, I have principles and despite not being religious, I feel I have a spirituality that the religious right claim they have… <\/p>\n

Even Pope John Paul II forgave his attempted assassin. While I am not saying any person should be absolved of their sins, I do believe it is important to not be distracted by the temporary.<\/p>\n

I voted for GOP Legislators – because they think it’s ok to do to everyone else. Why should we reserve all that fun for Gitmo or other prisoners? Let’s spread a little of that around. Besides, they’re not doing anything in the Congress anyway but obstructing decent legislation so they have plenty of time on their hands. I’ll throw the DINOs in there as well, because they are essentially useless as well. They can even invite their benefactors (Big Oil, Big Pharma, Ins. Cos., Military Contractors\/MIC, and anyone else. We’ll hold it at that Supermax prison where they’re gonna put the Gitmo prisoners. It’ll be like a big, fun party. Water-boarding for everyone. Bush and Cheney get to go first though.  <\/span>\ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Nobody was the clear winner here.  A few had fun with this, voting and commenting tongue-in-cheek, but all kidding aside, there is only one right answer.  It is never acceptable to torture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
