Part of your assessment is correct Sean. We don't torture. As the recent Memoranda produced by the Obama Administration last week establishes, there was no one tortured.
There were enhanced interrogation techniques utilized, which was beneficial in obtaining information that saved yours, mine and possibly hundreds of thousands of Americans' lives. You and every other American owes President Bush and his Administration a debt of gratitude. Thank you for starting to realize and see the big picture. Hopefully, those who are so filled with partisan, hateful ideology will start seeing what actually transpired.
