<<That pretty much confirms that Lott either was misquoted, or retracted his statements. But I'm neither confirming, nor denying, the possibility.>>

....or bitch-slapped by Cheney for originally confirming Priest's article.

<<The hell it's not pertinent. It's pertinent because it provides perspective from which to view the issue of physical coercion during interrogation>>

Again Hawk, with due respect.....spanking a child for misbehaving and putting a hood on a detainee, depriving him of sleep while strapping electrodes to his testicles are two entirely different matters.

<<However, neither should such methods be over-used, or excessive to the point of crippling the individual, or leading to death. That is DEFINITELY where I think a line has to be drawn, not out of respect to the detainee, but for the salvation of our own humanity.>>

Now we're getting somewhere.....so I can assume that anything up to but not including crippling or death you would deem as acceptable? Interesting......
