Secretary of State John Kerry made it clear that the United States does not and will not condone torture.

The release of the State Department’s annual report on human rights typically focuses on grotesque abuses and atrocities in far-flung corners of the world. But this year, Secretary of State John Kerry found himself addressing something closer to home: the vigorous endorsement of torture by the leading 2016 Republican presidential candidates.

In an implicit but unmistakable dig at real estate tycoon Donald Trump, Kerry said he wanted to “remove even a scintilla of doubt or confusion” that the United States “is opposed to the use of torture in any form at any time by any government or non-state actor.”

    I’m old enough to remember when conservatives believed in American exceptionalism.

    In the day, conservatives prided themselves in the fact that America didn’t torture people like Soviet Union or North Korea.

    and droning little villages with kids and moms in them is so much kinder – occasionally they even claim to have killed “a” bad guy.

    I can only imagine the conversations taking place between world leaders and US leaders trying to calm their fears of what could happen if Trump somehow wins. SMH
