Dodd Likens Bush Administration To Nazis

May 4, 2009 / 12:27 pm • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

Just. Wow.

Are you kidding me? Water boarding is the same as incinerating 6 million Jews and being responsible for 55 million lives lost. Really?

Well, I’ll say this for the Democrats, they know how to pander to their base even when in office.

    Attention leftists…Bush is GONE! That fact doesn’t seem to have penetrated through your skulls. YOU are in charge now, and YOU had better formulate a rational approach to national defense and foreign policy.

    Yeah, I know the old Bush Administration still gives you nightmares and the tea bag crowd is really menacing, but you might want to spend some time on SOME of the other threats in this world.

    Please, take a moment to reevaluate your priorities. If you won’t do it for the good of this country, do it for the sake of self-preservation.

    “How effective could waterboarding have been, if they had to do it 183 times?” Does he really not know that it wasn’t really 183 times, and that it was effective enough to prevent an attack on LA? Does he know, but just doesn’t care? Doesn’t he have problems of his own?

    Yeah, everybody needs to be accountable except for Dodd.

    Nevermind that no Democrats objected to waterboarding (or anything else at the time).

    Dodd is an a$$hole.

    Sorry, but he is. And yes, I would tell him that to his face.

    And no, it wasn’t “183 separate times.” KSM by his word went through 5 waterboarding sessions.

    Why isn’t this mortgage criminal behind bars, anyway?

    I wonder how his fellow senator from Connecticut, Joe Lieberman, feels about this comparison.

    “How effective could waterboarding have been, if they had to do it 183 times?”

    How effective could writing welfare checks be, Senator?

    “The Soviets were more progressive, they wanted show trials and then shoot everybody.”

    Did I really hear him just say that out loud?

  • Barbara

    you right wingers call Obama a fascist and he has never authorized the torturing of any human being. Torturing did not prevent any attacks according to the CIA and Pentagon.

    You nuts make up your own facts. Yes, there are numerous news articles saying he was waterboarded 183. That is in the documents that were released.

    So this website is a young girl right wing nut???? WOW SAD.

    Why do the Democrats hate the people that work in the U.S. Bank building in LA?

    Barbara, your grasp of politics is as firm as your grasp of the English language. Wow Sad, indeed.

  • MotherRedDog

    Barbara, So I’m guessing that you think it’s perfectly okay that Obeyme is bombing Pakistan and killing innocent women and children. This is acceptable, but waterboarding 3 terrorists isn’t? 183 times. Did you read the report? Obviously not or you wouldn’t make such a stupid statement. Are you even aware that this was done under the direction of a doctor? Do you know what the 183 refers to? You won’t find the answer at HuffingtonToad, you’ll actually have to read the report. Think you can handle that?

    Better 10,000 (D)emocrat voters of Los Angeles die then one genocidal maniac get the first 3 baths of his life.

    Chris Dodd should be behind bars! Damn crooked hypocrite, he and Barney Frank should be sharing a cell.

    Dubious electoral tactics? Check.
    Invading weak countries without justification? Check.
    Illegal surveillance of citizens? Check.
    Torturing prisoners? Check.

    The difference between the B*sh regime and the Nazis is one of scale rather than of kind.

    All laid at B*sh’s feet. What dubious electoral tactics. You lost me there.
    Invading weak coutires with out justification. Bush went on national TV and laid out 8 primary reasons fir the Iraq invasion, and not a peep out of the Democrats, until years later.
    Illegal surveilence of citizens: Again, just a bald statement with no factual evidence. Your opinion makes me LOL.
    And finally torturing prisoners. I’ll just say we have to agree to disagree. As a combat vet I would pray to Odin that if I fell into the hands of OBL and his ilk, that this all they would do to me. And with a doctor present.
    Don’t worry liitle sheeple what I do as a sheep dog is for the good of the flock, even if it brings you to hysterics.

    Hey, Barb, you think you’re smart? Try some simple math, k? And reading comprehension. READ THE MEMOS!!

  • Jon

    Dubious electoral tactics? Check.
    No, electoral tactics that played out under close public scrutiny through the legal system.

    Invading weak countries without justification? Check.
    No, invading countries known to invade their neighbors, which were in violation of their legal obligations, and which invasion was carried out with the informed consent of Congress.

    Illegal surveillance of citizens? Check.
    All surveillance activities approved by Congress or supervised by the appropriate legal authorities? Check.

    Torturing prisoners? Check.
    Yup, torture in order to avert mass-casualty terrorist attacks and to save the lives of US military personnel. Just like other countries do. Check.

    The difference between the B*sh regime and the Nazis is one of scale rather than of kind.

    When fools conflate evil with things they merely disapprove of they make evil all the more possible. Facts are good, Jasper — you should try them sometime.

    Dodds copius use of hair goo is bearing fruit it has penetrated his thick skull and is infecting his fat empty head. Looking forward to seeing the useless parasite lose his job.

  • Frank

    He was not waterboarded 183 times! Water was poured a total of 183 times during the sessions! Check the facts of the case brain dead! Sorry the CIA does say it was effective, the FBI does not, so take your pick.

  • Glenn

    Dodd is an embarrassment to the state of Connecticut and the senate as a whole. Barney Frank and him should both be in jail, they are among the worst publicly elected officials out there!
