2. Just having to listen to Michelle Bachmann is torture in and of itself.
I can't stand that vile woman. Or the rest of that evil lot, for that matter. These debates are such a freak show. The only halfway sane one, Huntsman, is on virtual ignore.

5. The rethuglican right demands toughness, to them supporting torture sounds tough
and not at all like supporting internationally recognized crime.

It doesn't matter what a republican candidate knows, or if anything that candidate purports to know can in any sense be deemed rational. The first step in winning the support of the right wing base is to sound tough.

This is why Perry has developed the jingoism on Iran.

It seems the motto of the r's base is: "Wir sind heftig...Gott ist mit uns"

9. What they should do is
have themselves water boarded then see if they still consider it family friendly.

Many people who do often change their mind.
