I’m glad Mukasey will be confirmed, but the moonbats are still not giving up — Larry C. Johnson (and gang) have a couple interesting posts over here:

He also says “We don’t care if you agree or disagree with us. We only care that you think about what we write.” However, they banned me for simply writing about the doubt that lesser forms of waterboarding are “torture” — now that Michelle has open registration, her site is even better than that — I assume we would gladly debate someone here even if they were against all forms of waterboarding, as long as they remained civil, right?

Well, I’ll admit I’m shocked. Thrilled but shocked.

I would have bet a “Recess Appointment” was the only way we would have had an AG. Imagine that. First time I’ve been wrong all year. NOT!! Just ask my wife. She’ll verify that I am wrong quite often.

I think the CIA should employ a new tact for obtaining information and breaking down terrorist who threaten us. Since the D controlled committees feel it is ok to hold inquisitions on any Republican nominee, how about putting a terrorist alone in a room with Schumer, Biden, Kennedy, Leahy, Turbin, Boxer (oops maybe no females) and have them discuss the merits of liberalism for 5 hours with no breaks. I’m sure this would yield all the information we would ever want, especially if they were threatened with 5 more hours alone with these “patriots.” I do believe after Bush’s veiled threats along with a lot of pushback from the public, they had to yield on this confirmation.

A Democrat talking about no one being above tha law–precious,no priceless.Sandy,pull your pants up.Hillary put your Hsus on.
I like the guy,but can’t vote for him because he doesn’t condemn waterboarding.Amazing how Democrats will use one issue just to try to make Republicans look bad.As others here have said–waterboarding is no big deal,especially considering the way the jihadis treat their captives.
Nice to seee Charlie Schumer caught betwee a rock and a hard place though.I guess he decided to support Mukasey because he couldn’t stand being “uncharacteristically quiet” for long.

So it’s all going along to the Dems’ script. Their virtually hand-picked candidate will go through, so they don’t lose face. In the meantime, they can have a few of their own (Leahy, Kennedy…) throw some more jabs at the administration.

Is this even news?

Jonathan said:
Torture…ridiculous! Isn’t “surfing” waterboarding?…I think we should take some Democrats “waterboarding”; Namely, Leahy, Pelosi, Kennedy, and the rest of their clan. Many folks who “waterboard” notice a change in attitude their first time out.

Wouldn’t work to change their minds, Jonathan. You have to remember these people believe it’s “torture” or “American terrorism” if Al Qaeda mass murderers at Gitmo are served Honey Glazed Chicken more than once in one week. The Democrat bar for what is “torture” is located at approx 5000 ft below sea level.

Leahy and his kind are much more interested in furthering their political agenda and the comfort of terrorists than they are about securing the safety of Americans.

I don’t think the question of torture is one that our elected officials should consider. Every time they bring it up it makes America look bad. It is as though they want people to think that America TORTURES people.

Go to the tower of London and do some research on TORTURE. What we do is NOT torture. We bend over backwards to NOT torture. Any discussion about whether or not America TORTURES should be held in private and secret because any discussion of it does out country no good.

This is just another ‘gotcha’ moment by the increasingly childish Congress that can’t do anything if it makes the president look like a president capable of making executive decisions for this nation.

That said, I can NOT look at this blog and see the picture of those pigs in swimming hats without laughing my behind off.
