Torture was a political tool of the Bush administration and had nothing to do with national security. Torture was used to attempt to cover their backs after the illegal invasion of Iraq.
Thanks Chris!!

1. I think the Republicans are right now, now, trying to strong arm her |

into saying prosecutions are off the table. This is how they'd do it.

The public record shows that torture was used back in 2002, long before troops set food in Iraq.

it's a strong point, I agree. There's evidence it's true, and when they deny it, they'll sound like the bullshitters everyone now knows they are.

8. It doesn't matter WHY torture was used! IT'S a CRIME! |

It's like me robbing a bank, but it's OK because my family had no food to eat! All the nonsense abot "it worked", or "we were afraid of another attack", or "they were covering their a**" doesn't MATTER!
