The word torture, like that of racism, hate, truth (relative), and patriotic has been hijacked by those on the Left and redefined in their own image. Like the evil stepmother in Sleeping Beauty, when those of the Left do not like the image staring back at them, they change the mirror:
The Memos Prove We Didn't Torture
This story will hold no weight (other than contempt) by those on the Left that believe torture is defined by what the prison deems unpleasant and not what a reasonable person believes to be torture. As a former police officer, and major case interviewer, I know something about convincing a person that it is in their best interest to tell you the truth, even if it means they will be sent to jail.
Make no mistake about it, if you are the victim of a crime, the last thing you want is a liberal conducting the interview of the suspect. That is not to say that a non-liberal is going to do anything illegal to secure a confession. The issue at hand is that a liberal will always show more empathy for the suspect than for the victim, which immediate elevates the suspects deserving of more rights, even beyond those guaranteed in the Constitution. The truth is that if you are the parent of a kidnapped child you have to ask yourself one question, do you want Jack Bauer conducting the interview or Rachael Maddow?
We live in a dangerous world, with dangerous people. The last thing we need is liberals defining what is and is not torture. One only needs to look at how liberalism has redefined the words I listed at the beginning of this article to understand my apprehension to allow them to have their way with the word torture.
