Torture

Convergeance

The morning torture-pornographers were in rare form today. I'm referring specifically to Doocy and Scarborough.

Here's Scarborough:

Say, Joe, I'm not defending DHS or NSA surveillance, but for the sake of argument let's suppose that report about right wing extremism (which you slammed) saves children from a right wing McVeigh type who's plotting to blow up another federal building. Put another way, it sounds like you're against "keeping us safe" by watching out for white supremacists, but you're in favor "keeping us safe" by torturing people. Am I right? And you're worried about being lumped in with extremists?

What an embarrassment. We can keep our children safe with our national dignity and values intact. If you don't think that's possible, Joe, then don't bitch and gripe in the event our intelligence apparatus tosses aside civil liberties and privacy.
