Since the torture stories contained in those secret Bush memos never materialized, the Left is twisting itself into knots to just make stuff up now. Like this “article” from Raw Story;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Allow me to summarize;<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to the no longer secret memos, White House counsels said that the CIA could make use of the supposed torture of placing an insect in a box with a suspect. The CIA never did it and eventually the White Counsels changed their minds. But some guy in Pakistan said he heard some Pakistani guards talking about using the torture during the time frame the White House accepted the practice.<\/p>\n

So Raw Story has declared the Bush Administration guilty based on the testimony of a father of a Guantanamo detainee. Despite the fact that these were the secret memos that the Left has been waiting years to read, somehow the secret memos aren’t accurate now, so they have to fill in the story they WANT to read instead of the story that’s there.<\/p>\n

Raw Story admits the story is second hand, but because it’s “strikingly similar” to other stories they’ve heard, it must be true. But wait;<\/p>\n

The use of insects isn\u2019t mentioned in a recently leaked International Red Cross report, in which Red Cross officials questioned detainees about their treatment at the hands of US forces and ultimately judged them to have been tortured.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Now we can’t trust those stinkin’ Red Cross officials either, I suppose.<\/p>\n

A second memo released Thursday, dated May 10, 2005, says the CIA told the White House insects were never actually used in interrogations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe understand that \u2014 for reasons unrelated to any concerns that it might violate the [criminal] statute \u2014 the CIA never used the technique and has removed it from the list of authorized interrogation techniques,\u201d Steven Bradbury, a principal deputy assistant attorney general, wrote in a footnote.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So I guess the CIA lies in their own secret memos.<\/p>\n

Ok, that all sounds fantastic, right? Well wait until the bobbleheads at the Democrat Underground start discussing it. Somehow the conversation becomes a discussion about Bush being a child rapist and pornographer;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Where’d they get the idea that President Bush raped children and took videos? Well, Seymour Hersh told them;<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But thank goodness the “progressive” blogs will keep us safe<\/p>\n
