The Lieberman defense: We won't do it again, so drop it
"I won't do it again" is not an acceptable defense to even the pettiest of crimes. How on earth can Joe Lieberman think it's acceptable in the case of illegal torture?
We sodomized people in this country's name. "It won't happen again" is not acceptable in any way.
5. It would not happen under Obama but what about the next schmuck who gets in office?

Or what if Obama suddenly turns evil and decides torture is okay after all? (maybe he has been programmed with a brain chip....JUST KIDDING!). Seriously, we cannot trust another Prez to use good judgment.
He was most helpful in getting the IWR passed. He's got blood on his hands and it's no big surprise he'd like us to forget his role in getting this illegal and immoral war bulldozed through Congress.
