A one way dialogue with no recourse for calling out the bulls**t?Nice try, but it won't work the way you want it to.

I can answer that for you nullcodes, since they've answered this question in previous debates. While they refuse to mention specific techniques (or even the distinction between enhanced interrogation techniques and official torture, if any) the Democrats would all say no, the GOP candidates would all say absolutely (with the exception of McCain and I guess probably Ron Paul) yes. Romney would seem bizarrely enthusiastic to convey his wiliness to torture, Giuliani would hedge a bit more, but land on the side of torture.We need new questions, and more importantly, specific questions. These vague questions allow candidates to easily dodge around issues.Ask a question like "Do you think the US should torture", and you'll get everyone saying no, but leave enough wiggle room to allow their answer to commit to nothing. This issue ties into Extraordinary Rendition. A more fitting question would ask whether the US would condone the use of torture, oversee or order the use of torture, or ignore an ally's use or reliance on torture in interrogation.

You know, she may have immigrated here ages ago, or married a US citizen. She may be American born, raised in the UK, and now back in the US. It's a little silly to judge someone by their accent, especially when it's completely irrelevant.
