Democrat President Approved Torture
-
In one of the longest-held secrets of the Cold War, the U.S. Army explored the
potential for using radioactive poisons to assassinate "important individuals" such as
military or civilian leaders, according to newly declassified documents obtained by The
Associated Press.
...
Military historians who have researched the broader radiological warfare program said
in interviews that they had never before seen evidence that it included pursuit of an
assassination weapon. Targeting public figures in such attacks is not unheard of; just
last year an unknown assailant used a tiny amount of radioactive polonium-210 to kill
Kremlin critic Alexander Litvinenko in London.Harry Truman, a Democrat, was president throughout the existence of this program. Any sensible person who saw Alexander Litvinenko's slow and arduous death play out in the media would have to agree that death by radioactive poison is certainly a torturous way to die.

In your posts on this very forum, you regularly torture logic to the point where I have actually heard it, this abstract concept, scream out in agony, pleading for CSS, Kyle, or Matthew (sorry Matthew, I really do think you're a nice guy) to come along and deal it their usual death blow, putting it out of its misery. We also know that Stan would happily torture you, me, nuns, orphans, puppies, and his own grandmother if any of that group tried to get the government to pay for his annual check-up. Any sensible, sane, rational, clear-thinking, moral, ethical, and upstanding citizen would certainly have to agree that this clearly makes it patently obvious that Rightists condone torture.

Yeah, that was Alexander Litvinenko I mentioned above.

Truman was a Democrat back when the Democrats were what we would today call Republicans. Seriously, what rock have you been living under not to know that the parties switched places.

They switched well before that. FDR, a Democrat, was probably one of our most liberal presidents in history (devoting the country to Keynesian economics and exacerbating the depression). Truman (appointed by FDR) himself pushed for the "Fair Deal", which was a set of liberal social policies. The conservative southern Democrat persisted through Truman's administration and a few years beyond, but the Party itself (and Truman) was already solidly liberal at that point.

What did logic do to you to make you want to inflict such pain? Did logic kill your mother? Did logic run over your puppy? Did logic laugh at you when you asked it to the prom? Why the need to waterboard logic? (Oh, wait, waterboarding isn't torture :rolleyes:.)

Sorry. Just have a low tolerance for your trolling today. Seriously, you take an article about an Army program that was ostensibly headed toward a dirty bomb, with a fourth priority being an assassination tool, and somehow twist that into an accusation of a Democratic president condoning torture? Weak, Red, very weak.

Necessity... that's open to interpretation.
This statement was never false.

Let me get this right... if you don't condone torture, you're a traitor. Did I understand your implication there?
This statement was never false.
