Obama: 'We Tortured Some Folks'

By KATHLEEN HENNESSEY In startlingly blunt phrasing, President Obama on Friday acknowledged the CIA’s use of brutal interrogation tactics in the years after the Sept. 11 attack, even as he defended the agency’s top spy, who is a veteran of the era.

“We tortured some folks,” Obama said to reporters during a news conference Friday. “We did some things that were contrary to our values.”

Shows the power of the evil US media.

During Bush: created “outrage” over Abu Ghraib (underwear on head) and Gitmo (waterboarding).

During Baraq: cheered on dozens of deadly drone attacks

Yo, B.O., whine for me sissy-boy.

Might want to listen ... Amagi.

One of Alinsky’s rules for radicals is that you make your enemies live up to their own standards, otherwise you call them out for their hypocrisy.

This has been SOP for the left even if they never read Rules for Radicals.

Manipulative POSs inuitively pull this cr@p, looking for ways to accuse while normal, lawful people are content to go about their days in peace.

These people calculate 24/7, all for evil intent. How pathetic is that? Insecure sickos on power trips. Explains where the modern crop of LEOs is coming from.

Like the badge-rage LEOs, this POSOTUS isn't one of us. Cast out the bondwoman and her son...

Maginot?

[LibWhacker]

FUBO!!! YOU are contrary to our values! You’re just another lyin’ muslim POS.

President Barack O’Bozo has been torturing the entire country for 5 1/2 years.

[PenguinM]

Why on earth would he open his mouth & admit anything? Friggin traitor.

[ransomnote]

I suspect those weren’t bribes, it was just a means for Obama to fund our enemies.

“Folks”

What a dick...

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

The torture began January 20, 2009.

[wetgundog]

McCain and the Gay Kenyan, two flies on the same pile of Sh!t.

Waterboarding is Not Torture!

yep, if it saves Americans lives they hate you ... Bet you do not care if they hate you, cause neither do I. Rock 'em and we'll roll as at 911.

If so, why is Obama continuing to use Rendition of prisoners to other countries Clinton and Bush did? Why is Garcia Vega still used as a Rendition station?

Hey OBummer!

1) What you mean "we" Kemosabe?

2) If water-boarding is torture, then just about every Soldier, Sailor, Marine or Airman who has made it through Special Ops training has a cause of action to lay before the World Court.

Please indulge me if I post what may seem to be a slightly off-topic question.

Why should we beat our collective breasts over a few terrorists who were subjected to intense interrogation techniques - not torture - but intense interrogation - and at the same time express no concern for the subjection of our own troops - volunteers - citizen soldiers - patriots - who freely go into harm's way to secure Freedom for people in far-off countries - and are constrained to operate under the most draconian ROE's ever imposed on our Armed Forces?

I thank the Lord for our men and women who go into combat for us day in and day out, as I thank the Lord for the agents, both military and civilian, who extract vital intelligence from recalcitrant detainees.

They save lives every day. Their service and sacrifice keeps us safe.

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[bray]

Since he’s so good at pointing the finger at other leaders, how’s he doing in Iraq and Iran or anywhere else? Bush was a master compared to this Bozo.

Pray America wakes up

[no-to-illegals]

Two zzzs/// or Royal Flush?

[TADSLOS]

Obama frames terrorists as “folks” as if they stepped out of a Norman Rockwell print. FUBO!
