Torture's spokesmodel

Surely the Democrats aren’t that desperate for support that they need to let a maggot like Kiefer Sutherland stay in the party.

As Jack Bauer, Sutherland earns million making torture look sexy. The pernicious and fatuous message of 24 is – if we just rip out the fingernails of this one bad guy we can defuse the bomb/save the school bus/rescue the puppy. Created by self proclaimed “right wing nut job” Joel Surnow and aired on Fox, 24 groomed the public to accept torture as legitimate.

24 is the DVD of choice for troops at Guantanamo Bay. Unlike Child’s Play or I Spit on Your Grave, 24 is a real video nasty, real torture porn. People watch it, then go out and hurt people.

Kiefer (liberal) Sutherland’s excuse – I was only obeying direction
