Kinda funny he said this. Now he will hear it from the left as to why he didn't ‘punish’ said torturers. This will be interesting.

Was there no "torture" on 911 in Obama's allies' attack
(which Obama claims was only urban renewal)?

You do you say it like you don't think they deserved it, 0?:
Maybe because you're a Muslim who sides with the terrorists?

I just Tweeted about that as my blood was boiling listening to him. He disparaged America’s values and said we tortured people! We went too far!
I always think I cannot despise him more but I always find I’m capable of it.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but, does Obama saying we tortured people somehow expose us to lawsuits? He’s saying we broke international law, Geneva convention standards, etc.???
Why is he commenting on this at all???

Sorry Barry. They weren’t “folks”. They were murdering, Islamoterrorist bags o’ ****! The problem was, we didn’t “torture” them enough.

He held a press conference just to say this?
Like you said, no mention of how dangerous and evil those we *tortured* (interrogated) were/are. That’s irrelevant to 0.
