It is inhuman. 50 years from now history wont reflect the reliable or unreliable information gathered through torture. 50 years from now we'll look back with shame as we learn about a country that surrendered its integrty and dignity, took a 300 step backward and tortured people for information. The 'he did it first' or 'he started it' argument didnt work with my mom and it wont work for us.
I dont want to lose all of that just for the possibility of gathering some information; information that will most likely NOT be accurate.
History will already show this time period as a bleek and an all time low point for America, we dont have to make it first because 'he started it!'
