Tortured Logic: 1

if torture works, ie, it extracts necessary secrets, then
prisoners who have been tortured have told their secrets
our citizens who have been tortured have told secrets
people who tell secrets are traitors
our citizens who have been tortured are traitors, not heros

Prisoner McCain is a traitor

commutative or meekly dissociative

torture works,
waterboarding is not torture,
therefore, waterboarding does not work

Oh wait,
waterboarding works
waterboarding is not torture
therefore “not torture” works.

Oh what a board, or is that bored, that is waterboarding. I mean, without going overboard.
