Sure, a pair of pliers and some fingernails. Oh, wait... the military 
spends $700 on a pair of pliers, so maybe that's not so frugal. Besides, 
only pussies care about their fingernails being pulled out. America 
needs something more effective to combat those Islamic fascists... how 
about sewing needles in the eyes? Sewing needles are cheap and 
interrogators could make a game of it, like darts.

And if they die before giving you the info you want, or before you can 
torture them into admitting their guilt, it can't be "murder", because 
how can you murder anyone who is suspected of maybe being a possible 
potential terrorist sometime in the future? Torturers don't hurt people 
for no reason! Do they?

Now, it is possible that we might torture someone who our profile says 
could possibly turn into a terrorist at some point in the future. But 
that isn't wrong, it is precautionary, pre-emptive, you know? Like the 
Iraq war, it's all about protecting America.

It's all about keeping YOU and ME safe.

I guess like rape victims, torture victims were asking for it.

That's the kind of military it will take to win the "War On Terror". A 
brutal one. The kind of military that represents its civilian leaders 
well. The same rulers who represent us, the citizens, and what we stand 
for.
