Senate Armed Service Cmte. Hearing on Aggressive Interrogation Techniques: Panel One (June 17, 2008)

Watch

This hearing is almost embarrassing to watch, if you haven't seen it yet, and you love your country, be warned. Simply watching this hearing is explanation enough why we cant let the lawyers run the war. These are the worst scum sucking people I have ever watched lie into a camera in my life. Removing clothe does not mean nudity, using dogs, does not mean "dogs". I have no idea what it was supposed to mean. What it really meant apparently is, it's not my fault, it was those stupid troops on the ground, that received my memos, it was all their fault.

If ever there was cause for a "Scotter Libby", those poor troop that were subjected to leadership from this bunch should be the definition of Compassion. These people and those above them, should be hung from the nearest poll.

There was a great interview with Col. Stuart Herrington on Washington Journal this morning, I'll link as soon as it's available.

Update:

Col. Stuart Herrington (Ret.) (25 min.)
Col. Stuart Herrington (Ret.) speaks on reforming U.S. Interrogation Practives. Today in Washington, three experienced government interrogators will present a forum on how the U.S. can most effectively interrogate alleged terror suspects without resorting to torture or infringing upon newly established constitutional rights.
