Re: Senator Lindsey Graham Debates Himself On Tort
I wish he hand not said what he said in 2008.... I suppose...
But there is a difference in the first place of seeking to stop water boarding
and in the second place seeking to stop members of the Bush Admin. from being tried and sent to prison.
context matters. I dont agree with Graham that we should not waterboard. I really dont care what anyone else thinks but if you are a devout terrorist, you have forfitted every single protection that society has provided to its members.... Including the Geneva conventions, the Army Field manual, or even simple proper care for humanity.
Terrorists get NO protection at all in my view.
Graham is wrong to oppose it, but he is right to defend the men who gave the legal opinions and the Obama admisitration has best leave off this witch hunt. they will be out of office one day. and there will be some excuse to toss someone in jail then too.
