FINALLY: an EPIPHANY moment for Right Wing rats ? - - "This is America! We Do Not Fuckin' Torture!"
Edited on Sat Apr-25-09 10:25 AM by Faryn Balyncd




I never thought I would see the day:






These VIDEOS are priceless:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/04/22/shepard-smith-torture_n_190350.html








"We are America, we don't torture! And the moment that is not the case, I want off the train! This government is of, by, and for the people -- that means it's mine. That means -- I'm not saying what is torture, and what is not torture, but I'm saying, whatever it is, you don't do it for me! I want off the train when the government starts -- I want off, next stop, now!"







"They better not do it........If we are going to be Ronald Reagan's Shining City on the Hill, we don't get to torture. We don't do it..............

This is America....We do not fucking torture."








Are we finally seeing the rats awaken?











:kick:

1. Sadly, no...
They'll just declare that none of the actions were torture.

Just like he's doing in that video: "And the moment that is not the case, I want off the train! This government is of, by, and for the people -- that means it's mine. That means -- I'm not saying what is torture, and what is not torture, but I'm saying, whatever it is, you don't do it for me! I want off the train when the government starts -- I want off, next stop, now!"

"The moment it's not the case"?! We've all known that "it's not the case" for some time now. Waterboarding is torture. Waterboarding has occurred. The "moment that is not the case" is long beyond us.

This guy isn't having an epiphany, he's entrenching himself.

3. A person with intelligence is one who can sense which way the wind is blowing.
They're not all entirely bereft of the quality on the other side of the fence. They simply wanted to position themselves to get the most benefit over the last eight years.

Now, the real smart ones will position themselves to get the most benefit over the NEXT eight years.

6. SHep is a pretty funny guy.
I found clips of him making fun of Glenn Beck and that dumb blonde from Fox and Friends.

7. Shep is fairly consistantly on the good side of things. Not a "rat".



at least as far as I've seen.

8. When Shep first started, I thought he was computer-generated.
like Max Headroom.

Nice to see his circuits are starting to show some life.
