Former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld tells Newsmax the information that led to the killing of Osama bin Laden was obtained through “normal interrogation approaches” and says the notion that terrorist suspects were waterboarded at Guantanamo Bay is a “myth.”

Rumsfeld also claims that elements of Pakistani intelligence could have been complicit in hiding the terrorist mastermind, asserts that his killing exonerates George W. Bush’s approach to fighting terrorism, and warns that terrorists will likely try to avenge bin Laden's death with new attacks against America or its allies.

Rumsfeld was Secretary of Defense under Gerald Ford from 1975 to 1977, then under George W. Bush from 2001 to 2006, and as a member of the Bush administration was one of the chief architects of America’s response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

cheney is in the last stages of heart failure, the only thing keeping him alive now is a pump.

WRT to the thread topic, the Bush administration had already stopped waterboarding prisoners "before" we got information about the courier's identity. But again, facts don't matter to Republicans anxious to spin a narrative that torture worked and Obama had nothing to do with the killing of Bin Laden (who isn't really dead, even though Bush deserves the credit for his death).

Yo, dumbass,

Waterboarding told us of the courier's existence.

Laughable spin, that Panetta has already debunked twice in the past 36 hours.

Nope, we didn't learn of Bin Laden's courier until 2007.

And quit calling folks "dumb" until you get a grasp of the English language - see tagline:
