Quelle fucking surprise

CIA Director Michael Hayden testified before Congress on Tuesday that government interrogators used waterboarding, often described as simulated drowning, on three suspects captured after the Sept. 11 attacks of 2001.

But don’t worry! The United States “Doesn’t Torture™”, because the crack fascists at Mount Doom on the Potomac are standing by with their spraycans full of whiteout, ready to editorially make torture into not-torture in accordance with the Evil Party editorial policy (which is “if you don’t call it ‘torture’, it’s not torture, because if it was torture we call it something else!)

*spit* Will no one rid us of these war criminals?
