Just a remarkable drubbing administered to Amanpour and her Anti-American leftist friend's propagandizing on "waterboarding" as "torture" by Marc Thiessen.
Grab the popcorn...and watch Amanpour endure this long-overdue (and perhaps unexpected) confrontation. In hindsight, she might have opted for water-boarding herself, given the option...

Marc Thiessen, a former speechwriter for George W. Bush and author of "Courting Disaster," blasted Christiane Amanpour for comparing American interrogation techniques to what the Khmer Rouge did in Cambodia after the Vietnam War.
Appearing on CNN International Wednesday, Thiessen took issue with Amanpour's April 2008 piece "Scream Bloody Murder" in which she made the case that waterboarding was similar to what the Khmer Rouge did in the '70s.
"[T]here have been so many misstatements told about the enhanced interrogation techniques, comparing them to the Spanish Inquisition, to the Khmer Rouge," said Thiessen. "And I have to tell you, Christiane, you're one of the people who have spread these mistruths."

Amanpour's smug mug is more than I can take.
At least finally someone makes the point that every one of our service members who goes to SERE school gets waterboarded and lives to tell about it.

Looks like Senator Arlen Specter must have seen the video and decided to retaliate against Congressman-lady Michelle Bachmann...
Democrat Specter Attacks Michele Bachmann – Tells Her to “Act Like a Lady” (Audio)
...maybe he needs to learn how to act like a man, forget "Gentleman", instead of a brute. Methinks he is toast in the next election, especially if Prez Obama comes to campaign for him. |
