ANYONE who says dripping water is torture is a liar.

The US Code defined torture in tha `90s and dripping water ain`t it. In face,Congress tried to outlaw it in 2007 but the legislation could not over ride a veto.

ANYONE who says the Japs did the same thing is a liar.

The Japanese used water torture, from pumping salt water into POW`s stomachs to making them eat dry rice then filling them with water and exploding their intestines.

ANYONE who says the Geneva Conventions apply is a moron.

The Taliban and AQ are not signatories.

ANYONE who says Bush should be tried as a war crimminal is an idiot.

The USA are not signatories to the Treaty of Rome.

ANYONE who says the UN Treaty on Torture applies is a fool.

The treaty is so poorly worded one could make use the treaty to charge bill maher and the producers of his show with it.
