  • Neither you, I, or President Obama can define torture. That has already been done by the Geneva Convention. Get educated people.

  • Cutting off someones head if they don't reply is torture, whipping and beatings is torture, making someone feel uncomfortable is NOT torture. Get real people!

  • Waterboarding is Torture.

  • Torture? Waterboarding and sleep deprivation is torture. During Basic Training we had lots of sleep deprivation, we had to go into gas chambers, live fire excersises. Were we tortured? NO!! and neither is waterboarding. Obama forgets to tell people that the Red Cross is there at GITMO to ensure proper treatment. Keep GITMO or send them all to San Fransisco.

  • nuk..nuk..nuk......

  • And after eight years of practically unregulated capitialism, we're doing just dandy!

    I think you need to drop the 'great socialism threat'...scare tactics at their worst. Time to check if the Geiger Counter is still working, ta ta!

  • I'm sorry Gjal, is that both sides of your mouth talking? I think its time to drop the "conspiracy theory" tact and just be honest about what this administration and all the you entitled folks really want.

    And, good luck with it, this utopian society that you're after. Especially considering the great many examples of socialism failing miserably with few, if any, to the contrary.

  • crazy rednecks working there who are like:

    WHAT? you terrorist? im gonna torture u mothe fakkaaa!

    rules are normal... the people are just idiots, no discipline.

    they need some disciplined people, not these pumped up fat drill sergeants sucking general cocks.

  • Guantanemo is one topic which makes me very un-decided.Terrorists,et.ceter­a must be punished,but I've heard that torture was used in Guantanemo?Maybe the place could be fixed up,new rules made.?

  • What he says is infinitly more important than the number of pauses he makes. I would rather have someone briefing the press who is actually thinking about what comes out of his mouth than someone who just says what comes to mind...sort of the gumball machine approach.

    As for the believing in a secret socialist agenda...I guess I'll have to take some time and just ponder that one in the 'bomb shelter' in the back yard. But first I'll have to move the Edsel to get to it.
