Right-Wing Radio Host Gets Waterboarded, and Lasts Six Seconds Before Saying It's Torture
Chicago radio host Erich "Mancow" Muller decided he'd get himself waterboarded to prove the technique wasn't torture.

1. His nickname is "Mancow"?
Why on earth would he call himself that voluntarily?
Does he have udders?

5. Please.. Mancow is an asshole.. tomorrow he'll be using the
"well it's torture but it works" meme to cover his ass. He really wanted to stick it to the left on this and after he's had a few hours to mull it over he'll move to either the "it works" or the "it's Pelosi's fault" talking points. His ego is too big to learn anything from this experience.
