LIMBAUGH: We have allowed -- we have allowed these guys, Obama and his buddies over at the CIA and in Congress, to water down the definition of torture to mean anything that makes a person uncomfortable. You know what this reminds me of? Remember when the NOW gang and all these other social interest groups started asking women if they'd ever been a victim of domestic violence? They didn't like the numbers they got initially. The numbers weren't high enough for the NOW gang. So they expanded the definition to include a man shouting at them. A man shouting at them equaled domestic violence. It didn't matter if the women shouted first. But let's not get sidetracked. The important thing to understand is that these appeasers have painted themselves into a corner. Dick Cheney has now called their bluff. The stark truth is that despite what the political left and the Hollywood elite say, extreme measures, enhanced measures, so-called torture -- whatever you want to call it -- it works. And he's seen the memos. And he wants them released.
Ewwwww ... now when will someone from the MSM ask ANY Republican Congressman if he/she agrees with this nugget from Boss Limbaugh, the fierceless leader of the GOP and all things conservative.
My, how times change.
Beat women? he was complaining that the group had watered down the definition of domestic abuse to include shouting at a woman, the point being that shouting is not domestic abuse. They did this in order to beef up domestic violence statistics in order to compliment whatever policy or point they were trying to make.
And in that context, this exactly what is happening with the CIA "torture " issue. Water boarding and putting bugs in a box is not torture, sorry. And magnolialover, japanese soldiers also used POWs for bayonet training, beheading competitions, and also worked them until they dropped dead. Japanese soldiers were tried for waterboarding because of the unbelievably in-humane treatment afforded to our captured soldiers, and frankly people wanted blood.
You are a friggin idiot! So screaming at your wife/girlfriend is not abuse in your little mind eh? Do your knuckles drag the ground when you walk or are you able to lift them up?
You can't be serious that waterboarding isn't torture. I'd love to know what your definition of torture is. (If you have one. I'm assuming that everything is acceptable to you.) It's a shame that people like you vote.
