While catching lunch today at a local sub joint (awesome subs, check it: Firehouse Subs, and may I suggest the Engine Company on wheat, no mustard? :-) ), I was subjected to Fox News. It was playing on the only TV in the place, and, like a train wreck, I couldn't stop myself from watching. A poll flashed on the screen, posing the question: "Should these past CIA interrogations be investigated?"
This, of course, in light of the new allegations of tactics including the usage of guns, electric drills, mock executions, and even threats of killing the detainee's children or raping his mother. IMHO, anyone who believes this is an appropriate way for our government to operate is someone who does not represent the America I love.
The results:
Yes 5%
No 95%
Who are these people?? People who don't look outside the little world they've created for themselves, the ones with the USA-centric view of the world. And, it seems, I am not the only one holding the belief that those who rely upon FOX News as their sole source of current events are poorly educated: Fox thinks the same! Check out this clip from The Daily Show (admittedly old, but true nonetheless).
