CIA, Army Use Chinese Torture Methods 

Domestic Pain Industry Cries Foul

 
U.S. torturers say their methods are just as good.

Richieville News Service – WASHINGTON, D.C.
The U.S. security community remained stunned today following reports that the CIA and the military used Chinese torture methods to interrogate detainees at Guantanamo Bay and elsewhere. American torturers, interrogators and security contractors voiced their objection to what is seen as a slap in the face to the U.S. pain-infliction industry. Among private contractors and within the government, the use of foreign torture systems over domestically produced methods is being sharply criticized as unpatriotic and un-American.
“The U.S. is second to none when it comes to mistreating prisoners,” said Duke “Gouger” Smithson, formerly of the Blackwater private security firm. “To go and use abusive techniques from other countries, taking jobs away from American torment designers, especially with the economy the way it is? Well, that’s just immoral.”
American torture experts were shocked to learn that the Chinese interrogation methods were originally developed to elicit false confessions from U.S. prisoners of war in Korea. “When I heard that, it was like someone had attached electrodes to my genitals,” remarked Butch “Nutcracker” Cooper, who said he could tell reporters who he worked for, but then he would have to kill them. “I mean, who is better at getting false and useless information out of suspects than we are?”
Former Navy SEAL, CIA agent and monster truck driver Leslie “Sleep Deprivation” Howard worried that unfair foreign competition might be a body blow to the American agony industry, “Those Chinese torture experts work for peanuts,” he complained. “How are we supposed to compete with that? You know the boards used for waterboarding? I bet the CIA is buying those in China, too!” 

An Offer They Can’t Refuse

McCain Offers Country Protection

Cites Fear That “Something Could Happen”


John McCain knows where you live.

Richieville News Service –WASHINGTON, D.C.
In a major policy speech today, Senator John McCain declared that the United States faced many threats both at home and abroad and in response to those threats, the candidate offered the country protection. Although Mr. McCain refused to name the threats or say exactly how he would protect the country, he repeated emphatically that only by accepting his offer could Americans feel safe.
“Terrible things happen all the time,” the Senator said, speaking to reporters at one in the morning in a parking lot behind a liquor store here. “Like, I don’t know, like maybe a terrorist attack. It could be something like that. Or maybe a rogue state. You never know.”
When asked by reporters to explain the consequences if the country refused his offer, Mr. McCain replied, “You all have such beautiful children. I’d hate to see something happen to them.”
The speech was unusual in the stringent security measures used to screen members of the press. Cameras and other electronic recording devices were confiscated beforehand and reporters were asked repeatedly if they were wearing a “wire.”
Mr. McCain stated that his Democratic rival, Senator Barack Obama was just not capable of protecting the people of the U.S. from grievous bodily harm. He also acknowledged that some voters might spurn his offer in spite of his clear warning not to do so. “Sure you have the right to vote for the other guy,” he said, grinning broadly. “And I’m not saying that if you do, something terrible is going to happen. I’m just saying, it could happen, you know?”
