Torture Should Not Even be a Question
The Libertarian Party condemns the use of torture by the U.S. government in the War on Terror. This has become an issue during the confirmation hearings for the Attorney-General nominee.
“In a civilized society that values the sanctity of life, torture should not be permitted in any way, shape, or form. The United States should set the standard for how the world treats captured prisoners. We should not lower ourselves down to the depraved levels of the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11. Torture is disgusting, abhorrent and beyond every moral standard of Western civilization.”

Well, so Feinstein and Schumer are, just as Bush, prepared to torture for freedom and security? In their inhuman minds, the end justifies any means. Gee, I wonder how long it would take Diane, Chuck, and Bush to break under torture? Of course, for them, “torture” would be making them do without their tax-supported “perks”. They probably wouldn’t last an hour. If I get a chance, I’ll get out of this country while the getting is good, however, time permitting, I’ll vote for Ron Paul.
