  1. Yes - without a doubt they should lose their licenses! This person has violated the Hippocratic Oath taken when becoming an M.D.. A promise was made to ease human suffering, not to create it. Their little black bag has become a bag of evil.

  2. Well first of all the hippocratic oath states to "do no harm". The hippocratic oath has not been required by physicians for some time. But since you want to use that as a basis to persecute these doctors we should bring it back because it forbids Doctors from performing abortions. That means using the Hypocratic oath as your reference you would have to support banning abortions as well otherwise you would be a HYPOCRITE. In addition the idea that waterboarding is torture is an opinion not a fact. Just because the far left keeps screaming that its torture doesn't make it so. Just because I bunch of sheep in this country jump on the trendy moral bandwagon doesn't make it so. It remains YOUR OPINION! Also curious how the physician is creating the suffering by merely being present. You need to wake up...we are at war. This is not a joke. The FACT is that the enhanced interrogation saved American Lives. FACT: The Brooklyn Bridge and Library Tower in Los Angeles are both still standing as a result of these techniques. FACT: If these techniques provided no information Obama would release the documents Cheney wants released because they would back his position that these techniques are not needed and there would be no sensitive information revealed. These are FACTS not opinions based on inflated and insincere moral outrage that is merely directed at Bush and Cheney and has absolutely no relevance as to what is going on right now. Now that Pelosi has been caught in a web of lies we will see more of the FACTS coming out. So next time you write a comment you might want to at least understand the document that you are referencing before you use it as the basis of your phony moral outrage.

  3. Leslie,
    You can't believe in socialism....you are too smart for that. Marxism....come on....communism....no way.....fascism......nope.
    The Republic with conservative values and capitalist ideals is the only realistic alternative. Liberals can't get elected on their utopian ideals....they get elected by lying to the public ...pretending to me moderates and then blind side everyone and when the people push back, the hidden fascist aspect of their "progressivism" rears its ugly head everytime. They can't help themselves as they have real contempt for the average citizen because they think they know better. It is a very arogant philosophy. Call me I'll walk you through it.

  4. Let's see here...they cut off heads and blow away 3,000 of our fellow citizens. We use tough, but safe methods to get information. We're the bad guys. What's wrong with this picture? Leslie, you seem like a bright lady. I just don't see how you could think this way!

  5. A- Unless you're willing to do these things to american criminals involved in dangerous activities it should be considered torture. We do not waterboard gang bangers or anyone else for that matter in this country because we know that it is unlawful and completely unethical to do it to another american. I constantly ask why we could accept something like this on foreign muslims but not americans? It is an undeniable fact that things like waterboarding were done in Vietnam and we called it torture then, so why is it ok now?.We as a people must look past the fact that the person in question is a muslim or a possible terrorist and start looking at them as another human being as well as asking whether or not I'd want or could handle this being done to someone close to me. Anyone associated with activities like this should be held on human rights violations.

  6. No they sould not. Eveything they learned has helped us. I know you do not agree. Just think about a life without a loved one that was killed for there so called happiness and that they brag about there brothers doing. I guess you didn't lose anyone that 9-11 day because if you did I would hope that you would want the justice for your family member. If not you know where you are going straight down to the hot place with them.

  7. This is a unfortunate event for this country. Those who performed the torture were following orders. I am always shocked when they court marshal a soldier for following orders. I can't even imagine what happens when they refuse? That said, if they were military Doctors, they should be held to some kind of account. But the real villains are the top brass for they ordered these practices. They should be court marshaled, no matter their rank. The Bush administration ordered many laws broken yet he gets off scott free? Anyone who breaks the law, must be punished.
