Tortured Logic

Many thanks to Marc Thiessen for making some invaluable corrections to the record about the practice of waterboarding, the enhanced interrogation technique the editors at the Washington Post called into question yet again just the other day.

This subject has been used cynically, yes, cynically by the Left, to include the editorial board of the Washington Post, ever since the practice of waterboarding was first revealed during the earliest stages of the war on terror.  And that, ladies and gentlemen, is far too long.

So, if I may, I'd like to offer my own response to the editors:

If you cannot distinguish between the extreme measures sometimes employed for the sole purpose of trying to avoid further atrocities, from those employed for the sake of nothing more than the brutality itself, then you are a moral idiot.
