And, okay, this is the last time I'll pick on you, scaeagles - but, other than the fact that you don't like them - why again do you think prominent dems should undergo waterboarding? Because they might have known about it? Because you think they are horrible people? I disagree with those who think that conservatives should be waterboarded, as stated before. But at least it was coherent - Hannity doesn't think waterboarding was torture, so, let him try it and see how he likes it. (Which, of course, he offered to do before apparently changing his mind.) So, there is a direct correlation between the "crime" (thinking waterboarding is okay) and the punishment (let 'em have it.) Just to clarify, I don't follow this line of thinking. I don't even particularly advise anyone to voluntarily undergo the process, as I understand it's potentially much more dangerous than is generally acknowledged.

But, just to press you a bit - why exactly do you think Obama, Clinton, not Gethner but certainly Pelosi deserve waterboarding? They already agree it's torture. They presumably find it objectionable. So, they deserve it? Do you think they will undergo it and come out saying, "Oh! That wasn't so bad after all!"

Or were you just offering a knee-jerk response to all the "let's waterboard prominent conservatives" posts?
