Default The tears of a clown, when there's no one around

I'll save my sadness for something infinitely more important than a terrorist getting waterboarded. Such as whether to have chicken or beef for dinner tonight. Or whether I want to wear blue trousers or black. His testimony lead to the direct capture of other terrorists. While in theory we shouldn't torture, in situations like this I'm willing to look the other way. So much for the "torture never works" argument. I do find the obstruction of justice part a tad bothersome, but on the other hand if whistleblowing (which can be a crime) is considered ok for the common good then the same argument can be made here.
