Torture is illegal in the U.S. But, how much would you be bidding?
So the question is this: Why do liberals find this joke funny when they should find it embarrassing? What is really wrong with these people? "Wanda Sykes equates dissent with treason. She likens a domestic political opponent to a foreign enemy. She makes fun of the disabled (Limbaugh's past addiction to painkillers would entitle him to protection under the Americans With Disabilities Act). She makes light of a form of interrogation that some people consider torture. And she wishes somebody dead. In Obama's wide grin as Sykes was telling her joke, we saw the smug look of a man who enjoys seeing his critics dehumanized. The president of the United States should be better than this."
