Actually, YOU are the one who's lying.

After World War II, we convicted several Japanese soldiers for waterboarding American and Allied prisoners of war. At the trial of his captors, then-Lt. Chase J. Nielsen, one of the 1942 Army Air Forces officers who flew in the Doolittle Raid and was captured by the Japanese, testified: "I was given several types of torture. . . . I was given what they call the water cure." He was asked what he felt when the Japanese soldiers poured the water. "Well, I felt more or less like I was drowning," he replied, "just gasping between life and death."

You're dealing with willfully ignorant neocon parrots....they'll deny reality to the point of insanity before they accept the FACT that Obama succeeded where the Shrub failed...and that all the Shrub propaganda was and is a total LIE!

Boom! There it is!

Before McCain sold his soul to the neocon gods for the 2008 GOP Presidential candidate nod, he had some pretty stern ideas and convictions that did not sit well with the GOP and it's PNAC agenda. This was one of them.

What McCain puts forth here I had already deduced from the public statements of Panetta, the official transcripts from the KSM interrogations, and the sheer buffoonery of the likes of Rep. Peter King and the right wingnut punditry/politicos.....it was a real laugh riot to watch our resident neocon parrots/teabaggers/threepers/oathers/confederate flag defenders, etc., all squawk the "torture works, Bush was right" mantras while failing miserably to try and put words into the mouth of Panetta. Their only hope is if Panetta makes a public statement calling McCain a liar...and given Panetta's penchant for double talk, I wouldn't hold my breath for that one,

Now it's going to be truly hysterical to watch the forementioned morons try to spin their way out of being proved flat out wrong in every way possible.
