paul begala and
art fletcher who talked on anderson cooper show on c_n_n_
about this issue for sure
and i'll tell you what ari fleischer
brings the weak sauce
normally you know how republicans to get over the top and get your face and
denying say everything's fine
see a lot of back peddling here and
not very good excuses so income on the run here
the force of righteousness are on the
are on the attack let's let's watch begala stated the flesh
persevered with wine things that we don't torture dissimilarity objected to
kill police as a matter of haha reasonably well with prosecution parting
with one's after ari was present was lying when he said we do not torture
no i don't think he was one of the country
yeah i think that it compares again
on is that none of us were predicated none of us all the time of snow if what
they did was was right
and and cracking legal why did they destroyed the evidence why they
destroyed videotape caesar lividity for two people being tortured waterboarding
no more than a hundred times as a fair question and i have in the c_i_a_
destroys a lot of times they typically like to destroy lessons they can't uh...
as a matter of procedure at the c_i_a_ not only on the spot a host of
but what it looks like a head of the c_i_a_ specifically did not want us to
distorting it they were
well as i said i think that's a fair question i think it's a matter of c_i_a_
working procedures for a lot of things sometimes a bit too far
give themselves in trouble for if in fact it does work does it matter paul
immediately the vice president's cracked an invaluable information was obtained
desired justified now or even worse do you think that is just a partner
why do you believe that it did work in this case
has always been invited to enter the premises places is torture television
darren davis and harris financials on present and you can go there you can see
the instrument for you for more people
i mean we labeling for certain antennas and that's why i said the only people
who are positioning started just nice to be career
independent-minded people at the department of justice
they laid the white house interfering but he also interfere
and then if they decide it was
and they've got a very careful decision made about how far distances do you
prosecute people
is the people who did it this is the democrats and republicans in capitol
hill
who resigned in the check to it and who was an administration would you have to
apply that standard uh... this is where this whole thing bill torture is always
wrong our immediate executed is a daily survival is really lovely
country executed japanese soldiers who waterboarding american p_o_w_'s week
executed them for the same crime that we are now
committing ourselves
how do you defend that
when one does he worry are the jury to prosecute dozens than all more than two
one
you've already pronounced doesn't that is a crime so that there's a crime a
question goes back to you which democrat members of congress is set in on the
reasons for authorized we're told about a lot of a particular time a democrat
said the majority of the senate
would you say need to be prosecuted
all right uh... might fear parulekar was awkward silence
of wheat exited people for waterboarding american soldiers
pose the question
now look eckhard pfeiffer first of course that is the usual surfing summer
concert site on the c_i_a_ destroys a return
knows the legal to destroy the state's support noted all as a matter of routine
destroyers and number two
slut
as evidence that that none of us all of you can't question bushes judgment he
was probably secret genius within six
which is really sold mls so we've now seen all thats
he had not birthday had no justification
they made up by the finance
so please the same thing that uh... at bottom you-know-what
or overall agree with our culture
how's that for crazy
because he said career officials better independent-minded just apartment should
look into this
i totally agree
and i don't think we should
prejudge in the sense of saying ok legally all i know that they're guilty i
think that they're guilty based on the evidence that's been the
uh... public record but i think would be if you brought me into a court an almond
jury i wouldn't say yeah i convicted for the trust us
however so that is of course
and perhaps there is a way that they can justify it legally i doubt it but it's
possible that's what we have trials and that's why we have before we have trials
we have investigations so here is our pleasure from the bush administration
agreeing that now we should we have investigation which because the justice
department
idea possible criminal investigation
couldn't agree more she says
uh... that the latest activity using his out of the ammunition i got nothing left
knowing but we didn't know that this law on the public record
it's impossible denied a store
so he does he really did not
as anderson cooper and rebel pointed out
recovery stated japanese it we executed people
for doing waterboarding guess our soldiers
it's clear is that it's in the record center
so i can tell you not so that's all i can remember president said
while we were doing it we said to them spe we're doing it and you know i love
intelligent
and so there there are also given but you-know-what again agree with that we
should look into it
uh... if i was a you know uh... prosecutor at the justice department i
think a you know what these democrats were briefed on it what will they have
what responsibility they have
uh... are they in
my mind right now on based solely on the public record has
culpable response was a beautiful
alternate and who off the right thing
that would seem illogical but or do they bear some responsibility maybe so
absolute look into it in fact is a report out down the decibel osi
of was in the hearings in two thousand two when they told our guest for
waterboarding people
and that she of
did not have the state taxes at all
and some say now will have to see if this is for one true love to get on the
record
fishy encouraged
now if that's true that message was he's got some issues
and i'd nancy pelosi is not my ent i don't care about
herve political well-being i care that we do things right and follow the law
and
don't work for people
and he gave in to do change work which is the man said
torture was a better way to go well then you screwed up
and there should be a price to pay for
so parts like the threatening democrats doesn't bother me and all
withstood investigation let's have it be fair
let's see what it comes up
apparently the republicans now reads
