Poll question: Torture is...
Edited on Fri May-15-09 11:08 AM by leftofthedial
Personally, I think our now documented use of torture puts the US on a par with the worst regimes in history. International law and human decency demand that we be fully forthcoming about the facts and that we hold ourselves fully accountable. To do any less is criminal.

3. It is so wrong that it requires justice, even it means suffering politically.

5. Torture did not happen until a Democrat is told about it.
Then it still did not happen, but it's all the Democrats' fault.

I had a little trouble working out a belief that Nancy is complicit in something that didn't happen, but I stared hard at a photo of Dick Cheney's lower teeth for awhile and everything became clear.
