O'Reilly Says Torture "Absolute Success?"

YOU can support a FULL investigation of torture at http://aclu.org/investigatetorture

Fox News in general and Bill O'Reilly in particular have been very supportive of the use of so-called enhanced interrogation techniques, including techniques like waterboarding which the United States has prosecuted as torture in the past, so it was no surprise this week when the release of a 2004 report from the CIA's office of inspector general did not stop "The O'Reilly Factor" from dishonestly spinning the revelation even though it showed the effectiveness of torture to be ambiguous at best as you can see in this video.

You can see the August 24, 2009, segment from Fox News' "The O'Reilly Factor" from which I took 2 short clips for my video on YouTube, apparently uploaded by Jami Floyd's publicist, at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwquBQwSZGc

You can find the 2003 memo quoting an anonymous senior CIA officer that I show in this video at http://media.mcclatchydc.com/static/pdf/17July2003-CIA-RDI.pdf

You can find the 2004 review of "Counterterrorism, Detention, and Interrogation Activities" from the CIA's Office of the Inspector General that I showed in my video on the ACLU's website at http://aclu.org/oigreport

And, finally, as always, you can find DOZENS and DOZENS more examples of Fox News bias on my Fox News bias playlist on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D

God, I hate when people say "well it worked". If I wanted to have sex with a girl, and I rape her, I get to have sex with her. Do I then say, well it worked?

You need to watch the movie about what happen to OUR saliors on a ship off the coast of N. Korea. Then watch as Obama uses the information that torture got to get Bin Lauden. Now Obama is drumming the drum about how his presisdency is working. It's 2012 and the tortue camp is STILL OPEN and OPERATING. LOL, LOL, LOL

I wonder what would be the reaction if Iran openly used pictures of a detention camp for "suspected terrorists," ie, captured Americans and said well "we don't actually endorse torture but you know... we found out that the U.S Government doesn't like us much, so we have decided to take it as a success" I'm also not surprised by the joeyviolents erroneous spelling of a certain word. Quite enlightening actually.
