forsythThe Bush administration is still torturing people.
"Later that year, as Congress moved toward outlawing “cruel, inhuman and degrading” treatment, the Justice Department issued another secret opinion, one most lawmakers did not know existed, current and former officials said. The Justice Department document declared that none of the C.I.A. interrogation methods violated that standard."
Even after Congress specifically passed a law banning it. Which shouldn't have been necessary in the first place.
What's it called when the President breaks the law? And gives up our moral authority, and oh yeah, tortures people? I'd call that a High Crime or so. I think there's even a specific clause in the Constitution about what to do when the President does stuff like that.
Yeah, that's it. Impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney. Impeach them now.
