Turn on KO for the shock jock who decided to be waterboarded
It's torture. Wait 'til you see/hear how long he lasted.

3. Eric Mancow Muller lasted six seconds
"It is way worse than I thought it would be - it's absolutely torture...that's drowning.

6. This segment of KO is interesting...
...they are talking about how this guy when he was a kid had to be revived from drowning. So, apparently he really knows what drowning feels like.

I do have to congratulate the guy for taking the challenge and being honest about the outcome.

9. We're fucked.
If self-professed he-man 'Mancow' only lasts 6 seconds, yet the supposed terrorists like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed can handle full waterboarding 183 times...good god.

12. Shows you how sick our society is...
Not the torture per se, but the experience of non-persons (Muslim prisoners) is NOT accepted as truth.

Only when a right-wing white guy with a microphone gets waterboarded is the controversy settled.

This irks me because it reinforces the notion that the experiences of blacks, minorities, women, disabled, fill-in-the-blank are NOT VALID because they are not the experiences of the ruling rich conservative white males.

:banghead:
