thinkprogress.org — During tonight?s GOP debate, a questioner asked the candidates why they refuse to call waterboarding torture. Romney said that before making such a determination, he would need to get ?counsel on a matter of this nature? from ?a lot? of people. One of the people with whom Romney said he would specifically like to speak? Blackwater's Cofer Black.

I agree. I was totally blown away by Huckabee's confidence and answers during the debate, while Rudy and Mitt made me gag. However Paul will always be overrated in my book.

Except you have to be reminded that those like Romney and Cofer Black think everyone in Gitmo is automatically an al-Qaeda terrorist on par with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. If we can detain and torture so many people without proving these connections then I sure as hell don't want some guy demanding we start chopping all their heads off and making shishkabobs out of anyone who gets detained.

So what. Romney will probably change his mind by next week anyway, just like he does on every issue

You're so right, momshizzle. It's not torture. It's more like Pilates or something, right? Maybe you can enroll in a class for it at the Y? Maybe you should. And then let us know if you still think it's not torture.

The old "Head on a Stick" thing is just a return to Compassionate Conservatism.It's worked for many other cultures throughout the history of humankind.
