So, Mz Rice...If torture, I'm sorry, If "Enhanced Interrogation "

worked so well,

Where the hell is Osama Bin Laden?

Didn't that cab driver we beat to death tell you where bin Laden was?
Didn't the people we waterboarded tell you where bin Laden was?
(How many #2 and #3 Al qaeda leaders did we happen to capture and enhancely interrogate?)

Where in hell is Bin Laden?

1. I doubt Bin Laden was even on the lips of the interrogators.

If they knew enough to round his family up and get them out of here on 9/12, I am certain that they have known where he was all along. If we knew which way hell was we would have a pretty good idea where BL is now.

3. That is my point. Bin Laden is responsible for 9-11

We attacked iraq because of WMD and Saddam's connection to bin Laden.
we began torturing, I'm sorry Enhanced Interrogating suspects in order to prevent another 9-11.

In 7 years of interrogations, some that ended up with the interrogatee dying, no one said: "Ok pal, where the fuck is Bin Laden?"

No one in the Bush Administration who was SOOOO fucking concerned about preventing another 9-11 couldn't be bothered to try to get the one responsible for the ONLY 9-11.

If torture worked so fucking well and you got actionable intelligence...
Where the Hell is bin Laden?

2. And if it was soooo legal . . .

Why did it need special presidemential authorization to be used? And what was the purpose of all those phoney-baloney ass-covering Justice Department memos? I'm very glad we live in a country where such inconvenient questions are never posed to our betters. Time to just turn the page and move on, and hope that our victims or their survivors are in a similarly charitable mood (which, of course, our betters never are).
