Lieberman says Torture is ok... wtf?

Newsday.com - National News: "On CNN's 'Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer, Sen. Joseph Lieberman (D-Conn.), a member of the Armed Services Committee, called the allegations serious and said they should be investigated. But, he said, if a special interrogation unit focused on suspected terrorists could have prevented Sept. 11, 'I don't think there are many Americans who would say we shouldn't use whatever means are necessary to extract that information.'
"

Oh really? Well, this is one American that thinks that there should be limits set on the use of toured.

9-11 was a Crime! it was not an act of War. It is no different from any other crime where people were murdered except the size of the disaster. We have laws and due process for dealing with crimes and they do not include torture. America should never torture anyone for any reason.

The constitution doesn't say you have certain rights until accused of terrorism. It says you have rights. Period. There should be no circumstances in which you can loose your rights and no situation where torture is justified.

Torture is never OK no matter what the crime. Its statements that include the phrase "whatever means" that create an environment which can justify the abuses in Abu Ghraib.
