More on "torture"

When I was a defense attorney some of my clients charged with sexual abuse of a child were required to be evaluated by a psychologist who administered a test with a Penile Plethysmograph, a device that purports to read you mind by measuring the -er- tumescence of the male sex organ while looking at various types of pornography. I always thought that was a particularly degrading procedure and wondered what basis there is for the idea that the size of one's erection had a direct relation to his sexual interest or his propensity to act out his fantasies. The abuses at Abu Ghraib seemed pretty tame compared to this kind of "testing."

I wonder if Senator McCain would approve giving suspected terrorists a plethysmograph test while showing them women in burkhas, belly dancers and the Twin Towers erupting in
flames. Would that be too degrading?

If it were me, I'd rather be waterboarded.
