[onerpone]

I now despise Barack Obama as much as G W. Bush1He refuses to pressure the Attorney General to prosecute Bush for his illegal wire tapping and torturing ways.Its becoming real clear that our government tortured detainees not for information but for forced confessions2He's NOT pushing for Single Payer Health Care3

Why are my fellow Dems letting him LIE to us?

[onerpone]

ITS OFFICIAL!!! I now despise Barack Obama more than George W. Bush. 1He refuses to appoint a special prosecutor to punish Bush for his illegal WIRE TAPPING and TORTURING ways. Its becoming real clear that our government tortured detainees not for information but for forced confessions. 2 He's NOT pushing for Single Payer Health Care. 3 He's killing innocent civilians in Afghanistan 4He does NOT support Gay Marriage 5 He keeps on wasting our money on stupid bailouts that don't work.

[incrowdcynic]

Yes, its all so simple. Would you like a President that is the leader of millions of people, or just the leader of your own private island on which you are the only person to please?

[skynet247]

Kinda Reminds me of the Video Package in Die hard 4

[ditadoggy]

Waterboarding is legal.Obama pursued it anyway like he was trying to protect himself from looking crazy.What about the immigration reform lie during his campaign?Do not pretend to know someone.

[utubefavorsdems]

Liberals are blind to reality.

[jbzhummerh2gamer]

Awsome! This is my favorite thus far.

[onerpone]

ITS OFFICIAL!!! I now despise Barack Obama more than George W. Bush. He refuses to appoint a special prosecutor to punish Bush for his illegal WIRE TAPPING and TORTURING ways. Its becoming real clear that our government tortured detainees not for information but for forced confessions. This is the perfect way to purge out our most corrupt officials both Dem and Rep.There is no way Obama will ever get anything done with the gangster leadership we have now. Lets see if "BO" wants real change

[Product1999]

so to get this straight, you despise Obama for not appointing a prosecutor for Bush officials. Meanwhile his attorney general is in the process of possible prosecuting bush officials.....your mad at him for not magically arriving at D...when he is clearly going through A,B, and C.

[grumpherys]

product1999, thank you for not being blind, and for not going off with insults to people that are ignorant of the process. When Obama tells the public what horrid things went on, you see that he will be following it up, rather than telling us and then leaving it. True, this focus on the past is bad for us now but over all this is the time to crack down and prove that justice is not a joke. It will be difficult but Obama will be our dark knight (not to be rasist but rather to refer to the movie)

[jbzhummerh2gamer]

You Are An Idiot! Think of it this way, if you were a school kid who was either a bully, or just someone who was mean to other people in school, & the only thing your teachers used to help you was to beat you (torture you), would be sure to always tell the truth so that they stopped beating you? Or would you just say anything to stop the pain? Think about it!!!!

[MooseOfReason]

"The world will be back to normal next year, or the year after."

Great.

[Theopolitical]

"Torture works"

Genocide works in eliminating a threat from a group of people (if you kill every person on Earth, no one, not even Americans, can hurt America); that certainly doesn't mean we should do it.

Just because something is effective does not mean it is wise to do. If we kill and torture Muslims then others will just radicalize (1.2 billion people are Muslim, and those numbers are growing) and we will have gained more enemies, not fewer.

[Theopolitical]

Kill a father and his sons, daughters and wife are our enemies. Convince a father to support the US and his sons, daughters and wife might possibly become our allies.

It's easy to tell what we should do (not torture or kill). What will separate us from a weak nation and a strong nation is if we can defend ourselves without assaulting others.

[1samothrace77]

What is normal?

[ikedirty318]

boy white folks are so funny and pointless

[neverlookback75]

Thoughtful Democrat = Liebermann?!?! Really?

[zndprophet]

Damnit, why doesn't Lieberman just become a republican already.

No democrats like him, or respect him.

[DoctorMeh]

He's in office because the old people who voted for him last time and see his name again haven't died yet.

[Sourcererdolphin]

The world will never be back to normal!

[sti1es]

i loves these clips...

[mehtoole]

Wow! Excellent DI100S today!

[quitejaded]

The world will return back to normal next year or the year after.

I really like that... LMAO

[squidb8]

Wow, I'm blown away

[carrierexchange]

So first it's not torture, then it is torture but it's not worth punishing anyone, there's nothing to be gained.. HOW MUCH LAMER CAN YOU GET?

[sti1es]

i'm sure the torture apologists will get pretty lame...

[carrierexchange]

I really hope someone gets convicted.

[prognost]

The United States prosecuted and executed Japanese interrogators for WATERBOARDING specifically. Let's hope this momentum builds.

[jeiger]

Water boarding is nothing...make me watch FOX News for more than 30 seconds and I'll be singing like a canary!

[Dadude0908]

amen to that shit

[AnnaSmee]

Are the memos out yet or...?

[prognost]

Yep, the ACLU has them up on their site.

Just Google "ACLU OLC memos".

[MVX12]

i pray to god that joe scarbrough gets tortured one day to see how it feels.

[micahgee]

GOP = Gay Old Perverts

[Richardgwm]

George Bush and Dick Cheney ordered the torture of prisoners of war.

George Bush and Dick Cheney are war criminals.

George Bush and Dick Cheney must be tried and executed.

Nothing less will restore America's honor and integrity.

[micahgee]

I totally agree

[Cheshirecatmeow1]

I want to see if Joe can take being waterboarded and then saying these things.

[beccahday]

there you go.

[Uwiluz60]

We are already a Banana republic ! Our torture tactics are very soft..If they out law it, they just won't take prisoners...A little hard torture in country to get the info...Then a 9mm to the head...Which is better ? At least you won't know about the last one...

[123Ahad]

I always love how they end the 100 seconds on a strange and bizzar quote

[WavesAndRocks]

JAIL CHENEY AND BUSH

[oldtownkid]

no one should be above the law, Obama and Holder must prosecute every one involved in ilegal actions.

[HomoGeneyes]

JAIL CHENEY

[2004JETTA]

wow Paul Sr. was a shock

[monalisasmiles4you]

The ones who are guilty of ordering these torture techniques should be prosecuted. They are guilty under the Geneva Convention and the Constitution.

[TheWayISeeIt1982]

Nothing to gain? How about we gain justice!!!

[MooseOfReason]

Liberty and justice for all.

[WKaliberr]

Torture is not being able to have sex with a nice girl after looking at her ass

[micahgee]

ROFL

[Onompoly]

Why are the republicans always proving they are guilty of their accusations. Seems to be the case.

Look at what Ron Paul and his supporters are saying and accusing? Are they going to be the main conspirators of the things they are purposing as well? Are their accusations just a front and a distraction from the fact they are the ones guilty and plotting.

[sachaput]

Let's waterboard Joe and Pat!

[MISSBEBEBLUE]

good idea.

[micahgee]

183 times

[bobhardball]

GOP = Waterboard Party

[micahgee]

they have bet everything that they won't be prosecuted, otherwise we got a whole bunch of war criminals on Foxnews!

[bobhardball]

We sent japanese soldiers to jail for waterboarding our soldiers in WWII. But now they are opposing any attempt to suit those who legalized the use of "enhanced techniques" under the Bush Administration. Does this make sense to you? GOP = Party Of Nonsense!!!

[jlobsien]

no no no. we didn't send them to jail.

we executed them.

[bobhardball]

Evern worse. It is time somebody give some straight talk to the Republican morons so in favor of torture. GOP = GAP = Grand Amnesia Party!!!

[k166a]

If having a trial would be such a terrible "witch hunt", why not just use the Bush tactic of sending all suspected criminals to Guantanamo? ;)

[JuniorTimes]

normal is overrated there is no such thing ... there is only now

[WKaliberr]

today was a bad day

[intarwebzz]

bad as in bad ass.

[masterhook]

I see the gop is back to there talking point. Good job GOP. Banana republic, really, that the best you have. Bush and his people broke are own laws, yea let just let them get away with that and the next time you start to bitch about someone in the white house getting a blow job in the oval office I will be more then happy to shove this right in your face. you had no problem going after clintion for sex but we cant go after bush for Torture, fuck you

[dddiegopan]

it takes a banana republic to know one

what is so bad about planting bananas?

GOP is always throwing smokescreens at us, this thing with the oppression of me in captivity is nonsense compared to the captivity of large populations by military rule or local or foreign powers, like Gaza Israel Palestine conflict, Syria and Iran, Africa is a lab for IMF type bankers doing experiments on local governments or they wont get loans, then loans are robbed by politicians. So much going on in the world

[mw2000]

How hard is it to say; 'I don't care if torture worked.' (It didn't). 'I don't care if torture kept us safe' (It didn't) 'TORTURE IS WRONG AND AGAINST THE LAW AND WE AS AMERICANS DO NOT DO IT.'

[captaincracklins]

These videos need renamed to "Today's Cable News in 100 Seconds." Please don't confuse the cable news machines for everything that is actually going on!

[zndprophet]

true, but dont confuse youtube videos with simple spelling errors in the titles as news either.

[WereAllApes]

Torture doesn't work. Those fucking terrorists will say anything for the torture to end. It's unreliable.

[intarwebzz]

not to mention it messes with my childhood perceptions of the United States, and that really rubs me the wrong way. i mean, deposing mossadegh and training the death squads in el salvador (etc, etc) were terrible, but ....ok, i guess i can't really defend that...my childhood perceptions were clearly wrong, but still, during the 90s, it seemed like we were generally going in the right direction. still, it is 2009, and i see no flying cars.

[Philinspaces]

It's this simple, break the law and you get prosecuted. Republicans have spread so much B.S. for the last 8 years, but the people are FINALLY seeing through it. Use the law against these lawbreakers!

[jeskao3]

Philinspace- Are people finally starting to see it?? All the  dis arming and conservation creating needed for bettering the world..., how can it happen with the type of people who are in power... have you seen

Loose Change

ZeitGeist

[zndprophet]

No, actually people are starting to see that conspiracy theorists are just people who would rather use their imaginations than listen to real news.

You know who's on you guys' side now? Fox News, Glenn Beck, most of the republican party. I wouldn't want to be in that company. In fact, they are calling America a "Banana Republic" just because Obama is having the Attorney General look into prosecuting people over the torture we've done.

I think we just had some bad eggs here. Get over it.

[mickeh93]

lol at end

[Tuthill99]

fuck consevatives

[phillydawg]

laws are laws are laws.

[thermalfreek]

The Republicant´s, the party of hate, fear and lies!!!

[ver506]

Sweeeeet!!!!!!!!!!!
