One man gets waterboarded. The other elicits laughter. The difference? Good photography!
The Immoral Majority
•
The torture debate has come down to whether or not it’s effective. Why are opponents of torture playing this game? Whether or not torture works is irrelevant. Even if it would save millions of lives–and that’s a stretch, to say the least–it’s wrong. What happened to Americans? Why are we so morally bankrupt? Wrong is wrong. It doesn’t matter whether or not it pays.

Blogger has been acting tweaky lately. It took me 48 hours to get this cartoon to load. My apologies for the delay; wish me luck getting the next ones up there.
Reforming the Torture Industry

New Boss, Same as the Old Boss

So much for change you can believe in: the torture continues at Gitmo and will continue at least another year. And nary a word about the NSA’s despicable warrantless wiretapping and espionage program against American citizens.
Ticking Time Bomb

The commander of Guantánamo admits that U.S. interrogators now spend more time asking detainees about activity in the concentration camp than, say, actionable intelligence.<
President Obama’s First Day

Obama’s liberal supporters are wallowing in wishful thinking. Once he gets into office, they tell themselves and everyone else, he’ll burst out as a crazy leftie!
