Santorum Says McCain (Who Was Tortured) Doesn't Understand How Torture Works | TPMDC
Rick Santorum doesn't think former POW and torture survivor John McCain quite understands how torture works. He was asked on a radio show to respond to McCain's assertions that torture doesn't work and there's no evidence that it led to the killing of Bin Laden.
The host asked: "Now your former colleague, John McCain, said look, there's no record, there's no evidence here that these methods actually led to the capture or the killing of bin Laden. Do you disagree with that? Or do you think he's got an argument?"
Santorum responded: I don't, everything I've read shows that we would not have gotten this information as to who this man was if it had not been gotten information from people who were subject to enhanced interrogation. And so this idea that we didn't ask that question while Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was being waterboarded, he doesn't understand how enhanced interrogation works. I mean, you break somebody, and after they're broken, they become cooperative. And that's when we got this information. And one thing led to another, and led to another, and that's how we ended up with bin Laden.
