torture: a tried and true technique

"one of the reasons these techniques have survived for 500 years is because they work."
-senator lindsey graham



guess what else has worked for more than 500 years, senator. murder. that technique has been solving problems since the days of ehud.

what a moron. how embarrassing for the people of south carolina to be represented by this guy.

betrayal has worked well for thousands of years as well. gaius julius caesar and marcus junius brutus are testament to the efficacy of that one. perhaps senator graham would have us return to the days of the spanish inquisition. for those in power the techniques for torture and murder worked wonders in those days.

that this guy can say this in public and not lose his job, and not be laughed out of the senate immediately, exemplifies the old adage: "if you don't stand for something you may fall for anything."
