“If someone can listen to Rush torture logic for three hours a day, then it isn’t logic”

On the drive home from sub’ing today, I waded through Sean Hannity’s and Fred Thompson’s radio programs and both are steadfastly defending the right of the United States to torture. As a former member of the Republican party, I’m ecstatic that I got out when I did. The continued defense of torture, especially when we now know more of the details, the fact that they didn’t produce results, the fact that it led our investigations on false leads (as I predicted)…. To say I’m appalled would be an understatement of tortured proportions. As long as Rush, Hannity and Thompson et. al. are leading the Republican media machine, that party will never regain my vote. Here is McCain explaining why we can’t torture. It’s something I teach my students. Actions have consequences. Now THAT is REAL logic.
PS. Who thought it would be a great idea to put Fred Thompson on the radio. The show is about as energetic and interesting as his presidential campaign. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
