4. I know what Clinton thinks, and McCain --don't know about Obama
I guess his counsel of wise elders will decide.

9. Clintons have been for torture since HE was president. Surely you know that by now?

And since Obama's advisors are Susan Rice, Richard Clarke, Gary Hart, John Kerry and Gen. Anthony Zinni, it is a certainty that he will not allow torture to continue.

6. you can look forward to official denials that torture is used
but do you trust that the CIA hasn't been torturing as it deems neccessary for the last 60 years?

cuz i sure as hell am not that naive.

10. Well, at least an end to OPENLY ADMITTED torture ...
What is underground and otherwise unaccountable is another thing -- remember, imperialism IS imperialism
