The Moral And Ethical Administration
The Obama admnistration has released information on the "torture" utilized by the CIA under the Bush administration. The report details such things as the waterboarding techniques under the supervision of a doctor who supervised the technique and certified that it would no cause any harm to the prisoners. Sleep deprivation for a total of 96 hours was used, also causing no harm to the prisoners. Food deprivation for relatively short periods of time we also used. In no case was any prisoner under any threat of permanant (or even temporary) harm to a prisoner.
These techniques were used on less than 30 prisoners and apparently provided valuable information that prevented attacks by al-quaeda in the U.S.
The administration is hammering the Bush administration (as has the left for the past 6 or 7 years) for it's unethical and horrific treatment of prisoners.
Meanwhile, the same Obama administration supports the legal protection of approximately 1.3 million abortions in the United States each year. That's 1.3 million gruesome, horrific and painful deaths that they turn a blind eye to.
I just wanted to put that into perspective.
