Nobody (except a masochist) volunteers for torture.

Screw “moral authority”.

But I still say that it’s also key to not let the misstatements and outriight lies get by without correction. By accepting the statement, he left the impression it was valid, which it wasn’t. That’s not the first time I’ve heard that claim, either, and it was challenged that time, which is the only reason I knew it was wrong.

I did like the woman, Pamela Geller, of Atlasshrugs.com. She was brief and to the point. Greg Buttle was pretty good, too–”Cane ‘em.” And I missed the name of the Democrat. It was Steve Murphy.

I would also like to see one of us, whether Sean or Glenn or anybody, volunteer to be waterboarded on TV. It would pretty much shut up the claims of both being “chicken-hawks” and that waterboarding is torture.

and b) that us special forces train by being waterboarded and that no one volunteers for actual digit removal, disfigurement and excruciating pain for hours

and Hannity needs to quit comparing waterboarding to killing enemies in custody

concentrate on how waterboarding is not torture

and even if we had once mis-defined it as such, that should not bind us now

What should have happened was for Sean to point out that what the Japanese did during WWII was far removed from the procedure we do now that is called waterboarding. Until we start correcting the misstatements, obfuscations, and outright lies of the unscrupulous or uninformed left, we are simply abdicating the field and letting them win without a fight.

Conservative spokesmen must get all the facts, study the claims that have been made in Democrat talking points, and learn how to refute them. The ones that are based on falsehoods of one kind or another should be easy to counter. It’s unconscionable to let them go without protest.

Great job, Leon.

I’m personally against abortion of any kind at anytime. My family is too, as is my extended family. To my knowledge no one in my extended family or whole family tree has ever even considered abortion as an option. We’re Italian-Roman Catholics and we live our faith. My wife and I, for more than 50 years.

Just thought you might like to know.

I try to be clear, maybe sometimes simplistic., I am lib and I like this site and respect all the opinions on it so I’d rather be perceived as a simpleton than a troll .

“Simpleton,” now there’s an opening for everyone to take shots :)!

Your post is absurd. I am all for a big tent, but a political party has to have a few non-negotiable pillars. To be a Republican, you must be strong on life, pro-freedom, for family values, and for a strong national defense. You are proposing allowing those who would weaken America to have a voice in the party. Not on MY watch.

If that is the case then to be pro-abortion would mean you would be pro- waterboarding, for consistency’s sake. So by the same reasoning shouldn’t those that are pro-life be anti-waterboarding?
