I'm 100% with BlueK. Stooping to immoral tactics decreases our moral authority, and much of the strength of the United States rests with our moral authority.

As such, our status has fallen in the world, not just with foreign governments, but with foreign people. Gitmo, Abu Ghraib, renditions, waterboarding, etc.

To someone like Tex, these are all good things that show we will do what it takes to win.

To people like BlueK and myself, it shows we are willing to destroy what we stand for to "win". If we destroy that, there is no purpose in winning.

Tex fundamentally lacks a moral compass. Remember, he couldn't even say if he would PROBABLY oppose his Bishop or Stake President planning and conducting mass murder.

Someone like Tex, I won't shed a tear if something he wishes on others happens to him. Karma is a bitch.
