What a legacy: talking about torture every single day
Today it's the Pelosi story, which is actually about 5 years old but it's being pumped by the criminal republicans anyway as some kind of revelation just to keep the propagandized tension alive, as if the dead republican party is something that even needs to be heard from ever again. I watched TV for a while today, the pathetic and disgraceful display of 1000 year old refuted lies is still on every channel: torture works, rich people rule us better, science is evil.

Who would have ever thought the topic of discussion in the news every single day in America would be torture, whether it works and who and who didn't conspire to commit it? I'm sick of being lied to, SICK OF IT!

1. And it should continue to be until those responsible are prosecuted.
This is a story that cannot be allowed to drop from public and political consciousness.

2. Agreed, it's the biggest issue of our era or any country's era
There is no "we just let the torturers go" in any country of supposed laws. Look how bad it's getting now, Pelosi is implicating the CIA in a conspiracy to commit war along with the criminal Bush administration and, worst of all, it's true. There is no putting this behind us, it will be dealt with regardless of who thinks it shouldn't be for whatever reason.
