Let’s see how long Obama lasts.
He appears to be one of the few decent and moral people in Hollyweird.
I remember when the now-deceased black ‘newsman’ on 60 minutes interviewed the highly hypocritical D.W. In one question the ‘reporter’ noted that he had heard that DW demanded $16M for each role. DW’s chest poked out, his shoulders straightened, and he snidely smiled while he beamed, “Yes.”
In the very next interrogative the ‘reporter’ asked something similar to: “Is it true that other actors demand much more?”
In one millisecond the wry smile disappeared to a frown, the shoulders slumped and his back sagged as he said, “The playing field is not even.”
Poor, sweet baby. I almost cried. /s
That’s not waterboarding.
At least NOTHING like what I experienced in Warner Springs.
Real waterboarding is absolutely brutal.
From what people who have worked with him tell me, he is a genuinely good man and he is known to help people around him when he learns that are having trouble. He’s a good man
While Democrats have tended to exaggerate its effects, waterboarding is a PG-rated version of a much more painful treatment.
Hugh Collar left an account of what it was like to be given the water cure. “After the first searing pain you don’t feel anything more for a bit; you are out cold, but the coming around is pretty terrible, too.”
The water cure was not only painful; it was often fatal. Smith recalled that two Chinese prisoners who had been given the water cure were returned to their cells, dead. Sometimes, after weeks of torment, victims would literally lose their minds, moaning and babbling insanely.]
This story was made not really to be about Denzel Washington. He was an excuse to make an article about waterboarding. A method of getting someone to talk that scares the bejesus out of them but rarely if ever caused a perp to die.
I like most of this guy’s movies, he’s quite good at it and picks some pretty good rolls.
