Default Where fools rush in.. (Dem's & hearings)

Dem's. rush to hearings on interrigation hearings.

In their haste to Bash Bush (btw whom is no longer in office) they may stumble and be exposed for their own hypocrisy.

I fully support these hearings, regardless of who they implicate. People need to be held accountable for this crap so that it doesn't happen again.

I too fully support these hearings so that it will be pointed out that the Dem's themselves were not only fully aware of but approved of what was going on yet chastise the Bush admin for it.

That's hilariously and depressingly partisan of you, SteamWake. Would you support such hearings if there was no involvement on the Democratic side?

Torture is wrong whether Nancy Pelosi knows about it or not.

Im not going to get into the "I like torture" debate. Whom in their right mind would state "Im for torture !" for crying out loud.

This thread is about the hyprocisy and flat out bull **** that is being doled out.

Pelosi launches a pre-emptive strike

He is no more partisan than you have been over the past year and you aren't even from here.

I think being in favour of torture hearing just to embarrass a particular party goes a long way past my own bias.

Yes but this makes Pelosi just as suspect. Should have raised the flag then, not now.

Just as suspect?

As the guys that ordered that people were to be tortured?

Waiting until your party has executive and legislative power mightn't be the most morally pure way to go about rectifying the cruel mess that was American Torture 2001-8, but it's not the same as ordering the cruelty in the first place.
