So you're against interrogation period, fair enough. I think that's a ignorant and ill-advised position, but I understand the passivist mind.

Myself, I understand that in order to retrieve the info we want the detainee must go through some discomfort. I will guarantee that our interrogation methods are among if not thee most humane used by any country in the world.

I'm sure the Nazis put them in cells, asked them questions, and caused them a certain level of discomfort in doing so. To that point we are comparable and I am not in the least bit ashamed. However, the Nazis went many multiples past that level. But we both know that Durbin was not equating us in that first example, but rather using it to paint an image of "savage Americans". He should be ashamed.
