A Simple Answer to the Torture Question

Never mind John McCain and his pontifications on the matter.

The answer to the so-called torture question is very simple. One guideline would settle the matter, and arguments about it being excessively harsh or cruel would be easily rebutted.

American interrogators should be allowed to inflict a level physical discomfort on detainees that is equal to the level of pain a woman experiences during the process of labor and delivery.

After all, the Islamofacist thugs everyone is suddenly so concerned about should be able to take anything a woman can handle, right? When you consider how radical fundamentalist Muslims treat women (see Afghanistan, Taliban era), it's obvious that the fairer sex is looked down upon as a lesser life form, and chances are that most of the captured terrorists we're talking about subscribe to this belief system.

So really, if they're so superior to women, they should have no problems whatsoever dealing with a level of physical punishment that millions of women endure on a daily basis as they bring new life into this world.

That's not harsh, excessive, cruel or barbaric.

That's life.

Who's with me?
