KO tosses another zinger, speaking about Republicans' constant politicization of the torture debate.

1. This seems to be a universal reaction among Democrats--
at least all of the ones who aren't in power.

Be damned to anyone who tortured or condoned it, regardless of party affiliation.

2. The GOP Wants To Paint This As A Political Witchhunt
They couldn't be more wrong about our motives.

4. Yup.. they still don't get it...
It was never about politics or political parties. So they started with the "it worked" memo, then it was "it's not torture" , then "it's not illegal", now it's "well, they did it too". The last desperate cry of a 6 year old. I believe they are out of lame justifications. Time for punishment.

6. Good. But Jonathan Landay (the guest) Is Still Being An Idiot
He's out there peddling what the torturers want to be "the real issue(s)."

1. Is it torture? and worse yet, 2. Does it work?

Who would believe that Shepard Smith on Fauxnewz would be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEtFMj6ZiHM">the superior journalist on this (25 sec. in).

It's take several years, but it seems even he has had his head sucked up into the large sphincter muscle that is the DC beltway.
