Poll question: Would You Support the Use of 'Enhanced Inerrogations' on Mullah Baradar
A high-ranking Taliban commander has been captured in Pakistan. He has been held for around 10 days. US and Pakistan intelligence agencies have been interrogating him.

Would you support 'enhanced interrogations'? Waterboarding and the other torture methods that the US has used before?

2. The reason we didn't know about his capture till now was to ALLOW enhanced interrogations.

What, are us "limp wristed idealists" going to roll back time? That's the beauty of keeping info from the public.

The Administration (all of them, Clinton, Bush, Obama) have already come out and publically supported assassination (Reign of Terror tactics) as the tool that "won the Iraq war" and decided to keep gitmo, so there you go. Oh, and warrantless wiretap of all domestic communications.

4. And recently Obama's DoJ argued that cellphone tracking
should be allowed without a warrant.

5. If you post that in a thread, expect to be downrecced, and accused of being a plant.
Just saying. :shrug:

(which raises the question -- a plant for whom? If they're so paranoid about teabaggers why can't they see that corporations are far better funded in their spying and disruption of civil discourse, and more bipartisan?)
