Torture?

Mitch and Ed bring us stories today of the total lack of.....I don't know what that tends to run rampant in "progressive" circles. Call it a stunning lack of knowledge of history or simply an over-use of over wrought rhetoric these stories echo a common theme.

Let me put this as plainly as I possibly can....waiting for a cup of "free range, vegan Guatemalan" coffee is not torture. Neither is anything that is happening at Gitmo. What is torture is having food and water with-held from you. What John McCain went through in Viet Nam is torture. What IS torture is having cigarettes put out on your body just because.

What we have at Gitmo or in "Gitmo by the Platte" is not a "concentration camp". To quote my friend Doc Farmer...

Concentration Camp?

CONCENTRATION CAMP?

Uh, Earth to lib/dem/soc/ commies. This isn’t a concentration camp…

This, however, IS.

As is this…

And This…

AND THIS…

Oh, and keep this in mind. Those “original” concentration camps weren’t devised by Bush or Cheney or Halliburton. They were devised by Hitler. A political SOCIALIST.

Thanks Doc for the timely history lesson.
