Your comment is partisan tripe, absolutely worthless. This has nothing to do with liberal/conservative/Rep/Dem and everything to do with a belief in fundamental human rights. 10,000 terrorist attacks on American soil would not convince me that torture is a valid tactic.
Even if you find yourself lacking all morality and humanity, you should still be aware that torture has been proven time and time again over hundreds of years to be utterly useless in getting truthful information out of the victim. There is no justification whatsoever, and there is no intel being gained via torture that could not be better gained in other ways.
The rational conclusion is that torture is not only barbaric, but pointless as well. 9/11 and the irrational stupidity that happened afterwards should not be held up as some kind of divine justification for war crimes.
