Pout all you want, but there will be no waterboarding today.
There's no need to torture even the VERY WORST of criminals:
Piro says no coercive interrogation techniques, like sleep deprivation, heat, cold, loud noises, or water boarding were ever used. "It's against FBI policy, first. And wouldn't have really benefited us with someone like Saddam," Piro says.
Why not?
"I think Saddam clearly had demonstrated over his legacy that he would not respond to threats, to any type of fear-based approach," Piro explains.
Piro also noted that Saddam considered bin Laden a threat, which would come as no surprise to anyone with a few functioning brain cells, and that there were no WMD's, which is ditto...sure, Saddam wanted to obtain WMD and would've tried to...but he sure as hell couldn't manufacture them himself (the sanctions destroyed his phycial plant), leaving his only option purchasing them...probably from Dick Cheney.
Maybe that's way Shrub and Dick didn't get upset over no waterboarding...it's like sharks not attacking lawyers: professional courtesy.
When a monster meets a monster comin' through the rye...
