Speaking on Fox News' online webcast, The Strategy Room, the Fox anchor responded brashly to the question of whether the United States should use torture in interrogating detainees.
"We are America! I don't give a rat's ass if it helps," Smith declared. "We are America! We do not fucking torture!"
Smith is known for his angry, rogue style on daily Fox broadcasts of Studio B and The Fox Report, notes Gawker. The anchor received a lot of attention from liberals, a few years back after laying into Fox's Sean Hannity for defending the Bush administration's response to Hurricane Katrina.

Earlier, on a Fox News television broadcast, Smith expanded on his views, saying: "We are America, we don't torture! And the moment that is not the case, I want off the train!
"This government is of, by, and for the people -- that means it's mine," Smith quipped. "That means -- I'm not saying what is torture, and what is not torture, but I'm saying, whatever it is, you don't do it for me! I want off the train when the government starts -- I want off, next stop, now!"
