Waterboarding Did NOT Lead to Osama bin Laden Killing - Obama Advisor

[johnanthonyp]

This Irish man looks like he's done it for real. He has tha tgritty Irish look and 'think and fight on his feet' brain that only somebody from Irish stock would pick up and have the sense to walk away from. Except Barack's advisors.

When a political advisor uses the words "not to my knowledge" disregard everything they say - he's full of shit.

simply if it worked why didn't they get him during Bush because it didn't work idiots my god. Maybe the focus should be instead about the heroes our troops and president I am so sick of racist idiots. who argue during a time of relief and remembrance and also pain a time for the victims and family's a sad stupid uncaring USA I live in well some of us care I care about them. and our heroes and our presidents choice to get the monster. it is there time not idiot racists time.

Of course the democrats are not going to admit it....... their whole playbook is to blame Bush for the stuff they screw up and take full credit for anything that is positve, even if the ground work for that positive was laid under the previous administration.

lol you moron, you're gonna believe one of Obama's dopey advisors? I love how he dances around it with phrases like "uhhh not to my knowledge" and "the information came from many different sources"

The head of the Homeland Security Committee Peter King as well as Fred Burton, VP of Intelligence for Stratfor went on record that the name of one of bin Laden's couriers was given to us by khalid sheikh mohammed during enhanced interrogation methods (waterboarding) while he was in an offshore prison

Peter King was called out by Fox News on this:

Donald Rumsfeld said there was no Waterboarding of the source that led to Osama bin Laden:

Donald Rumsfeld 5/3/11: "It is correct today that CIA Director Pendeta indicated that 1 of the individuals that provided valuable info had been waterboarded. I think that anyone who suggests that enhanced interrogation, let's be blunt, waterboarding,did not produce an enormous amount of valuable intelligence isnt facing the truth. The facts are,Gen. Mike Hayden,who had no connection to waterboarding concluded that most of the intelligence came from the 3 men who had been waterboarded."

@NewsPoliticsInfo "Donald Rumsfeld said there was no Waterboarding of the source that led to Osama bin Laden" Leon Panetta already openly admitted on CBS that EIT assisted in helping find Osama - and hes the current CIA director I think he'd know. Secondly, Rumsfeld's words were "waterboarding was not used at gitmo". For those libtards out there that can't piece together a simple sentance that doesn't equate to waterboarding was never used to get valuable intel. Stop spreading bullshit.

@MatchbookMethod Admitting that waterboarding didn't get the information is worse for the administration than saying that it did. Why? Because if waterboarding did get us Bin Laden, it would have justified torture in the eyes of many Americans. In this case, all the waterboarding that the Obama-administration did served no purpose and was useless. Commiting a foul act is always worse when it served no purpose.

So actually, YOU are defending waterboarding, kind sir.

[amodernphoenix]

CIA Director Leon Panetta admitted in an interview today that water boarding WAS used to extract the information. 

[BlackRepublican2010]

Do you honestly believe some of the most dangerous men on earth would give up vital information willingly or through traditional interrogation methods? If defies all common sense! Memos from Guantanamo Bay disagree with you, they confirm torture worked. Check out the article from the Business Insider with the copy of the memo.
