The Truth About Torture

I'm sorry, Mr. Taylor, but I am completely nauseated by what I've just read from you. For any American to suggest that sweeping all the Bush Administration's filth under the rug is in the best interest of the country - well, what words are strong enough to address such twisted thinking? Perverse? Repugnant? Traitorous? Depraved?

Now, more than ever, Americans must DEMAND accountability from those who have betrayed our Constitution, our laws, our values. George Bush and his thugs should be locked in a little cell for a very long time - not only as punishment for their atrocities, but to send a very strong message around the world that their actions do not represent the ideals of our nation. Moreover, we must set an example for future generations of public servants that such flagrant misuse of power will not be tolerated in this country. No one is above the law - not even the President. ESPECIALLY not the President. If we don't follow through and do the right thing here, our nation is forever tarnished, history will judge us for our own apathy, and we should all hang our heads in shame.

Comes now a prominent Clinton impeachment cheerleader to assure us that the war crimes of GWB and his henchmen are no big deal. Too bad Stuart Taylor (like many others one could mention) wasn't in that Humvee with Micheal Kelly.

Strange argumentations within this article. Suppose with every criminal investigation the suspects get a pass so they could take morre freely about the (possible) crimes they have committed.

And, in the case of torture, the president himself is one ofthe suspects.

According to Daniel Ellsberg, "there are people who would love to tell the truth if they are subpoenaed, and, if they can't be fired for appearing".
