Clay South should take this show on the road so that every Bush/Cheney apologist can experience waterboarding. Announce a tour schedule and have every local Republican Committee Chairman publicly declare whether they believe that 1) Waterboarding is torture, and 2)torture is a crime. A "no" to either or both questions receives a challenge to experience waterboarding. A refusal to be waterboarded gets your name added to the List and a donation to Sgt.

I join everyone in hoping it doesn't happen, but, eventually, the U.S. will be hit by terrorists again and the doves of pre-9/11 who became the hawks of post-9/11 who drifted back to being doves will once again be hawks. At least Cheney is consistent. Viva Nancy Pelosi.

I knew there was <i>some</i>thing I liked about Jesse Ventura (I just couldn't for the life of me recall what it was.) That's a pretty priceless comment. Also; who the hell is the guy who they brought in to do the waterboarding in that video? More than a little bizarre. Ha!
