SEN. KIT BOND: There are different ways of doing it. It’s like swimming, freestyle, backstroke. The waterboarding could be used almost to define some of the techniques that our trainees are put through, but that’s beside the point. It’s not being used.

Of course his more recent comment comparing Democrats on heath care reform to suicide Kamikaze pilots is also memorable. Does he really believe this or is he just doing the dirty work of the Republican Party establishment?

I hope Missouri voters recognize how far the Republican Party has shifted to the right, Kit Bond amongst them.
