@curefreak,

Naturally a fruitcake liberal would think precisely that.

Ah, yes, you're right . In the thick of that mumbo-jumbo he does acknowledge that some of the information used to track down bin Laden came from waterboarding, but then he makes it clear that the question of whether or not the same information could have been gathered from traditional methods of interrogation is still open to debate.

[ElZagna]

I don't see this as Panetta endorsing waterboarding. What he seems to be saying (after you cut through the gobbeldygook) is that while some of the information came from water boarding, that information could just as well have come from traditional interrogation methods.

@ElZagna,

It didn't come from other sources. It came from waterboarding and other advanced interrogation techniques. The Obama Administration is now backpeddling from the only semi-credible man in his administration (Panetta). Good to see you have heard their talking points and came here to regurgitate them.

[ElZagna]

@mulhollanddose How do you know what information came from waterboarding. Do you have a cite?

[mulhollanddose]

@ElZagna,

Yes, Leon Panetta for one. Watch the video. Panetta let slip out what the Obama Administration did not want to be communicated. He strayed from the reservation and in a rare moment of truthfulness, he told the truth.
