Treaties are bilateral agreements. AlQuaida is not a signatory... That's some lame ass spin. Did you read article 2? Article 2 1. Each State Party shall take effective legislative, administrative, judicial or other measures to prevent acts of torture in any territory under its jurisdiction. 2. No exceptional circumstances whatsoever, whether a state of war or a threat or war, internal political instability or any other public emergency, may be invoked as a justification of torture. 3. An order from a superior officer or a public authority may not be invoked as a justification of torture. Have you abandoned your equally absurd argument that waterboarding does not cause "severe pain or suffering, whether physical or mental?" Why be on the side of torture? Where's the morality in that? Where's the future in defending torture? Some smart Republican leader is going to realize the way back to credibility for the party is to denounce torture, including waterboarding. Obviously, many more of you dead enders are going to have to fall by the wayside before that happens. But it will happen. I guarantee it. SD
