ORIGINAL: Owner59 If the cons take over........... Say good bye to our good name and reputation(and hello to torture). Now that's funny! K. Considering the vice-torturer cheney is STILL on tv trying to sell torture,even threating us with doom and gloom scenarios if we don`t,that would be a reasonable conclusion. Just recently that coward said in affect that if we got attacted again,it would be b/c we DIDN`T use torture. Before bush,America was a country that did not do the things savages do.Not b/c we love savages but b/c we don`t stoop to their level. Even if they were our direct enemy and did barbaric, cruel, disgusting things to us or others,we didn`t in turn act like savages ourselves.Not because our enemies deserved better but because we are above the savages.We have,or had,the moral highground. Let me ask,did you vote for bush,either time? And don`t you find it absurdly ironic that we invaded Iraq to save them from saddam hussein and ended up torturing Iraqis at the very prison saddam hussein used to torture Iraqis,Abu Ghraib prison? We`re not Russia,we`re not China,we`re in the inner Congo or some slave state like Saudi Arabia. This is America.
