Mr. Horsey, have you stopped beating your wife?

From David Horsey, Seattle-Post Intelligencer editorial cartoonist:

Here's a Burning Question that needs to be answered by all of us, not just our warriors:

Is torture always a betrayal of American values or are there times when it is justified?
  article

No, it's not a betrayal of American values, American values being what they appear to be as practiced, rather than some ideals we don't adhere to in reality.

Yes, it is justified by many Americans.

No, it is never justifiable.

That's my answer.

Now what?
