SENATOR ROCKEFELLER: APPEASER; TRAITOR; POSTMODERNIST

NYTIMES:

The chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee is questioning whether the CIA's secret prison program -- which he fears has become a black eye to the United States -- should continue. ... Rockefeller says there is no doubt that intelligence from detainees has been valuable. Yet he says he wonders whether the CIA needed to create a system outside of long-standing FBI and military interrogation programs.

Rockefeller's spokeswoman, Wendy Morigi, said he has not been convinced that the CIA prisons produce better intelligence than the FBI and military systems.

''The real question is whether the administration's decision to pursue an alternate system (at the CIA) was the right approach,'' Rockefeller said in a statement Friday.

President Bush said he emptied the CIA's secret prisons in September and sent its last 14 high-value detainees to the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. But he left open the possibility that the program could be used again. ... Rockefeller has promised to conduct more vigorous oversight of the spy agencies than did his Republican predecessor. He is asking whether having a separate CIA detention and interrogation system is necessary and worth the toll on the U.S. image abroad.

''The widespread reports about secret prisons and torture, whether accurate or not, have damaged the United States' reputation around the world and hindered counterterrorism efforts with our allies,'' he said.

Human rights groups have argued for years that the CIA's detention and interrogation techniques amount to torture. The International Committee of the Red Cross is the only independent watchdog to interview the 14 detainees who were held by the CIA.

In a confidential report that has not been publicly distributed, the Red Cross said the 14 prisoners described highly abusive interrogation methods, especially when techniques such sleep deprivation and forced standing were used in combination. None of the detainees' accounts has been verified. ...

U.S. officials long have said the CIA program is for the most dangerous detainees and the CIA says its officers do not torture. ''The agency's terrorist interrogation program has been conducted lawfully, with great care and close review, producing vital information that has helped disrupt plots and save lives,'' CIA spokesman Mark Mansfield said.

MICHAEL SCHEUER - FORMER CHIEF OF THE BINLADEN DESK AT THE CIA, AND A VOCIFEROUS CRITIC OF THE IRAQ WAR, WHO SUBSCRIBES TO0 THE ANTI-SEMITIC "ISRAEL LOBBY" CONSPIRACY THEORY - HAS CALLED RENDITION THE SINGLE BEST TOOL IN THE GWOT, AND LAMENTS THAT APPEASERS LIKE ROCKEFELLER AND MCCAIN AND GRAHAM HAVE DEMOLISHED IT. SCHEUER SAYS IT HAS MADE US MUCH LESS SAFE.

NEVERTHELESS. APPEASERS LIKE ROCKEFELLER CARRY ON, PANDERING TO THEIR LOONIE-LEFTIES BASE, AND MAKING IT EASIER FOR THE ENEMY TO ATTACK US.

THEY HAVE OUTED THE NSA INTERCEPT PROGRAM, THE SWIFT PROGRAM, DEMOLISHED THE RENDITION SYSTEM, AND ARE NOW TRYING TO ELIMINATE THE CIA SECRET PRISONS.

WHO ARE THEY WORKING FOR!?!? THE ENEMIES OF THE USA AND OUR CIVILIAZATON. WHY!? BECAUSE AS POSTMODERNISTS THEY HATE MODERNITY AND THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN WEST AS MUCH AS THE ENEMY.

OVERSIGHT SHOULD NEVER MEAN MAIING US FIGHT THE MOST RUTHLESS ENEMY OF ALL TIME WITH BOTH HANDS TIED BEHIND OUR BACKS.

I CALL ROCKEFELLER A POSTMODERNIST BECAUSE OF THIS QUOTE: ''The widespread reports about secret prisons and torture, whether accurate or not, have damaged the United States' reputation around the world and hindered counterterrorism efforts with our allies," ...

ROCKEFELLER DOESN'T CARE IF THEY ARE TRUE OR NOT BECAUSE AS A POSTMODERN LEFTIST HE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN OBJECTIVE TRUTH, JUST COMPETING NARRATIVES.

SO INSTEAD OF CORRECTING THE LIES AND DISTORTIONS ABOUT OUR CLANDESTINE EFFORTS, HE SEEKS TO MOLLIFY THESE WHO ARE PEEVED BY THE LIES AND DISTORTIONS - THE ENEMY AND HIS PARTY'S LOONIE-LEFTIE BASE.

AND THIS ASSHOLE IS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE SENATE INTEL COMMITTEE - DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE HAS - IN THE PAST - LEAKED SECRETS FROM THE FLOOR OF THE SENATE.

WE WILL NOT WIN IF WE KEEP FIGHTING THIS WAY.... THE DEMS KNOW IT; THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT!

I MEAN, HEY FOLKS: WHAT'S THE SOURCE OF THE CONTROVERSY HERE!?!? THE ENEMY CLAIMING WE'VE BEEN "HIGHLY ABUSIVE" OF THEM WHILE THEY'RE IN CUSTODY.

WELL, SO WHAT?! "HIGHLY ABUSIVE" IS NOT TORTURE. IN SIDING WITH THE ENEMY, THE LEFT COMMITS A LOGICAL FALLACY: CONFLATION; THEY CONFLATE ABUSIVENESS (LIKE SLEEP DEPRIVATION) WITH TORTURE.

WHY DO THEY DO THIS!? BECAUSE IT MAKES THE USA LOOK BAD, AND THAT'S THEIR FAVORITE THING IN LIFE - THAT AND BLAMING IT ON BUSHITLERHALLIBURTON-ISRAELI-ZIONIST-LIKUDNIK-EVANGELICAL-NASCAR-NEOCONS (TM).
