The woman applying for a job in a Florida lemon grove seemed way too qualified for the job.

Look Miss," said the foreman, "have you any actual experience in picking lemons?"

"Well, as a matter if fact, yes!" she replied. "I've been divorced three times."

I guess so!

I don't think it's typical Valentines Day flick, but I wouldn't say it was "anti-Valentines day".

I'm anti-Valentines Day....
LOL

I still can't believe that you're only 18.

i dig it :)

Seems you forget the real reason we decided to JOIN this war is because we were hit by terrorists crashing planes into our country! Not because of torture and human rights.

torture rarely works. most times if they confess to anything, they're just saying it to make the torture stop. torture does not work.



we were only attacked because of mass failings by our government and by many government employees, how can you even say that as if it's a valid point?

Would he have gotten 15 years for waterboarding? Would he have been prosecuted if he had done it to military personal? There are too many flaws in this arguement. He wasn't just waterboarding. He wasn't waterboarding enemy combatants. He did the waterboarding in such a way that could have resulted in death. If you can't see the dissimilarities between what he was charged with and what we do, then there is nothing I can do for you.

It says "Charge: Violation of the Laws and Customs of War: 1. Did willfully and unlawfully mistreat and torture PWs. 2. Did unlawfully take and convert to his own use Red Cross packages and supplies intended for PWs. Specifications:beating using hands, fists, club; kicking; water torture; burning using cigarettes; strapping on a stretcher head downward "

To say he got 15 years for waterboarding is a complete lie. There were multiple charges. Also, it's important that we don't grab civilians off the street and do that to them. We pick targets who have potentially important information. Also, the way he did it was to suspend someone upside down, which is torture and can result in death. Waterboarding doesn't kill. It doesn't result in permanent damage. It is just scary. The guy in question was actually filling a civilians nose with water, while the person was held upside down. He could have drowned for real oh and he was a civilian, which means he had no information which could have been useful.

As this website shows, the person in question wasn't charged for waterboarding, but for other, more brutal forms of torture. Ted Kennedy is well know for stretching the truth.

Also, we use waterboarding on enemy combatants, Yukio Asano used waterboarding on civilians.

Our own CIA and Special Forces members are waterboarded to prepare them for such interrogation tactics.

Waterboarding broke Khalid Sheik Mohammed and it caused him to confess numerous terror plots that were in process and he gave up serious al Qaeda figures and operations.

Works for me.

uh huh. i wish the world was as idyllic as it is in your head, but it isnt. and comparing our military to the nazis is just plain misleading. were talkin destroying a race of millions for sport as compared to squeezing someone for info.
if yuou think waterboarding is bad, read about some of the atrociticies wrought on the victoms of the nazis, or hussain, for that matter. your not comparing aples to apples, but rather trying to invoke emotion, which isnt going to work with me. ever seen your buddy who you just had breakfast with running around like a chicken without his head? i have been there. these armchair liberals have no business even expressing thier opinion till they have done some time on the front lines. if you want accurate info, talk to the eturning vets. youll never get the true story from the news or these liberal/ enemy based websites your always quoting. my opinion is based on real life expierence, not some news program spouting lies. Do you realise that the media is so slanted against bush and the military that it is just not worth watching? i deal in reality, and truth.
no one who has been in combat wishes to return there. we dont like being shot at, and anything done to shorten the war or save AMERICAN lives is worth it. i dont like the idea of torture any more than you but it is a part of warfare, always has been, and always will be.
