Actually, the otter is going to simulate drowning the diver in order to find out who stole his mollusk.
The GOP candidates who are really running for President (ie not Huntsman and Paul) all agree that they oppose torture, but that torture isn't really torture when America does it, so screw you Al Qaeda.
Basically, except for Huntsman and Paul - Huntsman because he's sane and Paul because he's principled - they all agree that waterboarding is not torture. Except, of course, it IS torture. It is defined by the Geneva Convention as torture. We signed the Geneva Convention. If A=B and C=B then you can waterboard Khalid Sheik Mohammed 182 times in a month because "AMERICA!"
This is sickening. Literally sickening. We have a major political party basically endorsing torture and getting cheered for it.
Disgusting.
(Sorry to bump Jake's essay from the top, but I had to get this off my chest.)
