Waterboarding is (or was) part of U.S. military Officer Training.
It is NOT TORTURE!

This is an ongoing list of historical, popular, and Biblical people, as well as fictional characters and animals that Sarah Palin™ has been compared to on FR:
You've left one out, but that's ok for it doesn't work very well lacking the contextual set-up from which it arose.
Somebody here compared her to Thatcher.
I disagreed but offered that Thatcher herself if likened to James Bond (coolly sophisticated, erudite, high-brow tastes, effective agent) then Sarah Palin was as the American agent Jason Bourne.
Bourne could kick Bond's ass any day of the week.
Sarah Barracuda for President.
Start cranking out the bumper stickers.

Waterboarding is torture. Gov. Palin is the right’s Joe Biden. I know I’m outnumbered on this thread. I don’t care.

Waterboarding is NOT TORTURE!!!! True. Next time you're in the shower, put the washcloth over your face and let the water hit it for a minute or two. You might come up sneezing, snorting and even coughing, but no permanent harm. It is not as bad as getting water up your nose at the beach.

Since (I’m assuming) you don’t believe in Jesus Christ and his atoning sacrifice, it’s in very poor taste for you to get off a silly one-liner by professing the faith ironically. It borders on offensive.

I know I’m outnumbered on this thread. I don’t care. I'm with you. The Palin adoration will never intimidate me. I mostly leave it alone. But, I figured Dreher would get slimed. He's a good man and a good thinker / writer.

I think people get confused because water-boarding is an accepted form of torture for military training of Americans, and has been for many decades at least.
During the Vietnam war, even basic training trainees who were captured in E & E exercises, were tortured pretty well in Little Vietnam, at Ft. Polk, and GI’s from all branches who attended more sophisticated training, were water-boarded in large numbers.

I guess I should be offended by that. I’m not. I’m laughing. You have a real gift for humor man.
I mean I don’t know why that is funny really. On another thread, another time, maybe even a different place in this one it wouldn’t be funny. But it sure strikes me as funny now. Again, I don’t know why but thanks anyway for a good laugh!

When EveningStar posted a large list of people Palin had been compared to, I noticed Jesus wasn't on the list. The Holy Spirit moved upon me to make a joke about that.
And Jesus approves.

There is no physical injury and when the process is complete, the subject is in fine health.And it's like baptism in that it could be described as a "come to Jesus" experience...

Nailed it. Greatly exaggerated.

And, if you're going to quote Reagan (your tagline), at least post the full quote in context... Libertopian is NOT Conservative.

Huh? Tiny Matt Damon couldn't ruffle a Sean Connery feather even at Connery's present age.

Check Flame Retardant's posting history. He made quite a few replies to existing threads before posting a new thread. His posts seem pretty conservative, BTW
As for Rod Dreher, several of his articles have been posted here over the years. Some have met with approval. Some have met with disapproval. Some have met with indifference. However, if you wish to have him added to the "not welcome here" list, you can certainly let the admins know.
