WASHINGTON -- President-elect Barack Obama said Friday his administration would not compromise its ideals to fight terrorism, and he has told his new intelligence chiefs that he expects the Geneva Conventions to be honored.
"I was clear throughout this campaign and was clear throughout this transition that under my administration the United States does not torture," Obama said, when asked at the news conference whether he would continue a policy of harsh interrogation. "We will abide by the Geneva Conventions. We will uphold our highest ideals."

IMO the Geneva Convention doesn’t apply to terrorists. And when terrorists behead Americans I believe that 10 terrorists should die. I am barbaric I suppose because I would choke them with pig intestines etc. Why people think they can reason with kooks is beyond my thinking. I would kill them in the worst way they could imagine & I would make sure they suffered & didn’t get their 72 virgins or whatever they believe. At this point I would take them alive & toss them into a pig sty of hungry pigs & let them eat them alive.

That's the problem isn't it , they don't cover "irregulars".
Maybe 0bama’ll define waterboarding as ‘definitely not torture’ because we use it in training some of our own forces.
I’d simply tell them that unless they talk, should they *ahem* die in prison, we will bury them with a “ham hat” on their heads. (TM Glenn Beck)
What ‘torture’?
Kiss them to death!
Wonder what Hussein and the rest of the US hating, PC crowd will say after the first nuke goes off in New York? After “It was Bush’s fault”, that is.
America's enemies must be LOL at the naive rube who will soon occupy the Oval Office...
So 0bama plans to follow GWB’s lead regarding the Geneva Convention. That’s good.
Remember, Obama constantly lies, so he will torture anyone who gets in his way. Just wait until a few deals he thinks he has negotiated go bad.
“Obama Vows No Torture in War Against Terrorism”
...smooth move ex-lax. Way to lose a war that we’re winning. Of course, that’s the goal isn’t it?
Remember when reporters asked the Empty Suit what he would do if Russia made an aggressive move and he was President at the time? I believe he said he’d bring them before the U.N. Security Council and request a vote on sanctions. And then someone had to remind him that Russia has VETO power on the UNSC.
He’s an affirmative action idiot.
Hey Obama - put your money where your mouth is, make it a Constitutional amendment banning the use of torture. What’s the point of not having torture for just 4 years?
How convenient, the research and procedures on torture will simply sit on a bookshelf till the next time our government needs them.
His administration will be four years of torture for millions worldwide.
Might want to rethink your position.
“So what does that leave, harsh langauge?”
Yes, a stern lecture and time-outs will make them talk.
So he’s continuing the Bush policy?
There never WAS “torture”, dillhole.
