Did you ever stop and think that maybe the real reason some are so upset over the torture issue is because they do believe we really are better and don't want our nation to be seen as hypocrites?"

I agree with this.
I also believe that if you know someone has info that could save lives you do what is best for the situation. It's a tough call.

Politicizing it the way I fear Obama is about to, is dead wrong.

I don't see Obama politicizing the issue, in fact it looks like he's trying to downplay it. Congress has been the bigger baiter, but even with that it looks like they're trying to leave the door open a crack rather than push it open.

My take is the administration knows it's a %$%$%$%$storm, and only wants legal action to move forward if there's a real case to be made. They want to balance the interests of the Left with reality.

My take is he is saying one thing while doing another. I don't believe a word he says. He is the most cunning and two faced politician that has ever decieved the American public. Wake the F##$ up!
