Black Box Report

This administration has careened from abuse to arrogance to denial, and now it seems to outright lies when it comes to torture. We have all learned in recent years that this White House and its disciples advocated torture. They ignored vocal dissent from within their own Justice Department, they ignored international standards like the Geneva Convention and they lied about it when confronted with the facts.

Even after publicly renouncing torture as abhorrent - they went ahead in then-secret memos saying, “Don't worry, keep waterboarding.”

Forget for a moment that no military man supports torturing the enemy, lest one of their own fall into enemy hands; this administration kept secrets from congress after explicitly promising otherwise. When Alberto Gonzales, George Bush and Dick Cheney decide the law does not apply to them, our nation is in grave danger.

Congress is and should be looking into who knew what and when. No administration should be above the law, especially this one.
