Right Wing Radio Host Changes His Mind Under Torture

Like all the Wingnut radio talkers, Chicago radio host Erich "Mancow" Muller has derided waterboarding as merely an "enhanced interrogation technique" and no big deal. Certainly not torture. So to prove his point, he decided to get waterboarded himself. He lasted just six or seven seconds and declared the experience to be torture. Watch the video:

"It is way worse than I thought it would be, and that's no joke," Mancow told listeners. "It is such an odd feeling to have water poured down your nose with your head back...It was instantaneous...and I don't want to say this: absolutely torture."

And unlike the victims who were tortured in our offshore prisons, Muller had the option of stopping the waterboarding immediately and sitting up.
