		<description>I&#039;m disappointed it has taken this long to get any significant interest. I&#039;m still wondering what turned out to be the critical mass that drove the new discussions.

Was it one Inspector General&#039;s unflattering report too many! Perhaps it was the seating of the 60th likely Democratic Party Vote in the Senate that could finally allow cloture against any filibuster on such subjects.

Maybe the thousands of daily phone calls, faxes and emails finally penetrated their thick skulls.</description>

		<description>I hope any investigation covers more than just lying to congress; there is so much more this gang is guilty of.  

What’s all the fuss from the Republicans?  Ken Starr dogged Bill and Hillary for years and the Rs thought that was just fine.  Appoint a special prosecutor and let him get to the bottom of this.  I only hope he has same zeal to prosecute that Ken Starr did.

		<description>Rush and Sara want the same? 

Seriously, Leading Republicans don&#039;t commit abuses, &quot;errors may have been made&quot; (by someone, we don&#039;t know who, but it probably wasn&#039;t us). 

Any such errors are really the fault of the devil, who only targets the pure of heart. Blame really lies with the MSM who caught them in the act; it was their fault. 

Apply tears and prayers and all will be forgiven, so you shouldn&#039;t persecute those poor lambs.  But, Democrats, as everyone knows, are atheists, even xtian democrats; they have no god to forgive them, so persecute away.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I&#039;ve always preferred my idea of a commission of inquiry to look at all these issues,&quot; Leahy said Sunday.&lt;/blockquote&gt;This is code for white wash so they can say they &quot;investigated&quot; the incidents. Leahy and Feinstein are NWO sycophants.  They have come to the front in hopes of steering the white wash in the direction they want.
&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;This continued attack on the CIA and our intelligence gathering organizations is undermining the morale and capacity of those organizations to gather intelligence,&quot; said Republican Sen. Judd Gregg of New Hampshire.&lt;/blockquote&gt;As if there were not huge swaths of senior operatives quitting in protest over Bush era policies.  Now all of a sudden CIA morale is important.

What about the morale of the citizens of the United States?

How are we supposed to behave knowing our government has tortured innocent people and are trying to justify it by claiming it was done to protect us?

And not just tortured, but raped 15-year old children with broomsticks in their anus in front of their mothers.  How sick do you have to be to think that is acceptable MR. HOLDER?

&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;Debating about it, ummm ... Some of the worst things that happened you don&#039;t know about, okay? Videos, um, there are women there. Some of you may have read that they were passing letters out, communications out to their men. This is at Abu Ghraib ... The women were passing messages out saying &#039;Please come and kill me, because of what&#039;s happened&#039; and basically what happened is that those women who were arrested with young boys, children in cases that have been recorded. The boys were sodomized with the cameras rolling. And the worst above all of that is the soundtrack of the boys shrieking that your government has. They are in total terror. It&#039;s going to come out.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;Seymour Hersh

Can&#039;t make this sick stuff up.  I&#039;ve done my research.</description>
