It is the nature of their business to do things that are secret. It is called "Doing things that are secret for the good of the country and for National Security" Also, don't tell them that they don't need to know everything that goes on. Just because they don't know everything that goes on doesn't automtically mean there is a cover-up or a conspiracy. It may be a simple as we just plain do not want our enemies to know what we are doing so that they do not take ad vantage of that knowledge and destroy us. I know it is a very difficult concept for them to understand, what with them wanting to see our nation destroyed and handed over to our enemies and all, what with all their sedition and treason and everything, but it really is just that freaking simple. The nature of the CIA is SECRET!!!! Morons. Shhhh…don’t tell the Liberals, bt the CIA does things that are secret. It is the nature of their business to do things that are secret.

My throat was really dry and I suddenly had a coughing attack. I coughed out my regular and couldn't stop coughing. My bouancy was really trim so as I coughed I started sinking. On top of that, my dive buddy and I were at the back of the pack and he didn't notice that I had disappeared. I watched the lights of the group disappearing into the haze as I started sinking. My lungs were on fire, but every time I cleared the regulator and started to take a breath I started coughing again even though I basically had no air left in my lungs. It is the only time scuba diving I really thought I was going to drown. I was near panic and only my training and will prevented me from freaking out. If I had panicked I would have died and floated down to the 200' bottom. Water- check. Fear of drowning - check. Panic - well not quite but then I am trained to deal with panic. I didn't realize until I read some of the posts in this thread that it was not actually a survivable, although scary, scuba incident, I was tortured in a sinister conspiracy by "the man". That makes as much sense as the liberal view on the rest of this stuff. I was night scuba diving on a wall in about 100′ of water. My throat was really dry and I suddenly had a coughing attack.

And I have no trouble deciding that we are on the moral high ground in this war. Frankly, an interrogation tape is far too trivial to be relevent to drawing any conclusion on such matters. A bunch of sadistic dirtball savages who deliberately blow up women and children and think they are going to paradise for it vs the worst we could possibly imagine in an interrogation -- wouldn't tip the balance in the slightest. If the law disagrees and lets the terrorists off the hook over this, then it simply shows we need some changes in the law.
