Or are you saying that because al Qaeda tortures, it is ok for us to do
so,too?
It's hard for me to equate 20-30 seconds of a drowning-like experience that
you walk away from as "torture" compared to having your throat slit and head
lopped off in front of a camera while pleading for your life.
There have been many, many more civilians and solders beheaded by al Qaeda
than al Qaeda terrorists waterboarded by us, if the CIA report is accurate.
Yes, if waterboarding gains information that helps prevent more beheadings
or torture killings by al Qaeda, I think it's not only ok, it's necessary.

I certainly can accept that we have different opinions on this, and that
neither of us is going to convince the other to change his mind.

On a lighter note, I passed my cardiovascular exam today. Pressure cuffs
on both arms and legs, hooked up to a very expensive looking computer
device, plus ultrasound through my midsection and up through my neck.
Very strange to see the inside of ones "stuff." Three very attractive
young women were doing the testing (one was a trainee), which made the
experience even easier.- Hide quoted text -

Well, of course you had attractive nurses. They know that you are far
superior to anyone else on earth so they give you the beauties. Did
you tell them about your Dr. Dr. wife?

There you go again, dip****. Who said they were nurses? Who said they
were "beauties"? Not me. All I said was that there were three very
attractive young women doing the testing. In point of fact, I doubt any
of them were RNs, or, in fact, nurses of any kind. They weren't doing
triage, they weren't administering meds, they weren't treating an
ailment, or injured or sick patients.

This is the sort of misreading that keeps getting you into trouble.
