Republicans, The Torture Party.
I get off work tonight, jump in the car and turn on the radio, and some joker named Mark Levin is screaming on my car radio!

He is yelling to all his attorney friends and possible prosecutors not to take the job of investigating the torture claims. He asks that they resign first, before taking such a dastardly job.

Then he goes into a tirade about how he is going to get all of them - including the President and the Vice President. Someday they will be out of office and he will get them!

Then he talked about his good friend, Sean Hannity and his interview with the great conservative, Dick Cheney. And he asks why they don't release the memos that show all the good stuff that was gotten from the torture? Yes, he actually said that!

The Republicans and their propagandists have become the Party of Torture. They defend it to their dying breath. What have we become? When did it start? Surely it was manifested when they cheered at the fireworks of "Shock and Awe" when Bush first bombed Iraq? They could see the pretty fireworks and they didn't have a second thought about who was dying from those bombs. From that point, they sank deeper and deeper into depravity. The Republican Party has become the Torture Party.

1. it's the main reason repukes didn't like McCain
he did not approve of torture - of course, only because he really knew its "worth"

3. He is the one who wrote that book "Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto"
I saw that it was high on Amazon's list. I guess his friend Hannity is probably talking it up on his show. What a waste of many wonderful trees.

4. I wonder if these guys really believe their own words
I mean really, do Levin or Hannity just lie down at night and think, "I get paid well just to spout bullshit I don't believe every day", or are they really that psychotic and evil? I mean, I know their fans are psychotic or evil, but what about the talk radio guys themselves? How can they live with themselves, knowing the stuff they'll say just to hold down a job?
