We don't torture.
We don't torture.
We don't torture.

The United States does not torture.

Then it changed to, we tortured but it
was to protect the country and under strict
control.

Then it changed to a few rouge individuals
tortured, but we caught it.

Then it changed to we tortured but
it was only high value individuals and
the Intel prevented terror attacks.

Now we find we tortured, it was an organized
program, that was developed out of the Bush
White House, it was done to offer cover for
the torture program that began BEFORE the
written program for 'enhanced interrogation'
was developed, and the real reason for torture
was to provide back fill intelligence to provide
a link between Saddam and 9/11 and not to protect
America for terror attacks from Al qaida or Bin Laden.

I can only imagine what we will discover over the next
few weeks, months and years...

For this country to regain the prestige squandered and
misused by the Bush Administration, the American people
must demand the Bush Administration be brought to justice
for breaking both National and International Laws especially
if they pertain to War Crimes.

This can not be a partisan inquiry it must be a ground swell
from the American people that even the Republicans can not
ignore.
