And asked him if he did confirm that our nation water-boards suspected terrorists. I provided the transcript of the interview in which he says water-boarding is a "no-brainer". Here it is:

"Question from Scott Hennen: Would you agree a dunk in water is a no-brainer if it can save lives?

THE VICE PRESIDENT: It's a no-brainer for me, but for a while there, I was criticized as being the Vice President "for torture." We don't torture. That's not what we're involved in. We live up to our obligations in international treaties that we're party to and so forth. But the fact is, you can have a fairly robust interrogation program without torture, and we need to be able to do that.
And thanks to the leadership of the President now, and the action of the Congress, we have that authority, and we are able to continue to program. "

6. Right at the beginning it could be...
ow! ow! ow! ow! ow! instead of the oohs.

This would be a good song parody.

7. Here is the song:
Do you know the way to GITMO Bay?
I've been away so long. I may go wrong and lose my way.
Do you know the way to GITMO Bay?
I'm going back to find some piece of mind in GITMO Bay.
Cuba is a great big shithole.
Put a million down and lease a base.
In a week, maybe two, they'll spray you with mace
Weeks turn into years. How quick they pass
And all the plots that never were
Are sparking fears and jumping gas (prices)
You can't really breath in GITMO Bay
They've got a lot of space. There'll be a place where I can stay
I was torn and braised in GITMO Bay
I'm going back to find some piece of mind in GITMO Bay.
Pain and torture is a magnet.
It can pull flesh far away from bone
With a scream in your heart you're never alone.
bones turn into dust and blow away
And there you are without a friend
You pack your wound and die away
I've got lots of "friends" in GITMO Bay
Do you know the way to GITMO Bay?
Can't wait to get back to GITMO Bay.
Do you know the way to GITMO Bay?
Can't wait to get back to GITMO Bay.
Do you know the way to GITMO Bay?
Do you know the way to GITMO Bay?
