The country must move on from debates about the past, because pressing questions about U.S. detention policy in the war on terror requires us to make difficult choices – and to make them soon.
Quote B.
We need to look at to make sure exactly what happened is known to the public and to deter any future president from doing like behavior, if it was wrong. In that regard, if we can do it in a bipartisan fashion, I think that’s what we should do. Every American benefits when you can control X abuse of power. If this was an abuse of power, then we need to know about it.
Quote A. was spoken in 2009 in regards to investigating possible crimes committed by the Bush administration in respect to torture.
Quote B. was spoken in 2001 in regards to investigating former president Bill Clinton’s controversial pardon of Marc Rich.
The speaker in both instances was Republican Senator Lindsay Graham.

So it was important to investigate possible abuse of presidential power back when the culprit was Clinton but not now when the focus would be on Bush. Talk about duplicity.
One endangers only a Political Reputation. The other endangers the country and our soldiers already in harms way and is damaging to the country as a whole in the world.
One proves even a President has a healthy libido. The other causes people to get killed.
Talk about not comparing apples to apples. This is really an asinine comparison. I hope your followers here are intelligent enough to understand that.
No. We just don’t want power crazed, radical liberals on a crusade to somehow heap humiliation on a former administration to further endanger the lives of Americans.
I think the fact that we have not been attacked again is the beginning of a good defense. Unlike you people, I don’t think defending those actions is important enough to place Americans under further peril.
Obviously, YOU do which brings me again to question. Are you a US Citizen?
We haven’t been attacked since torture was banned either. This argument is insane.
And, I want to know about the “power crazed, radical conservatives” did to shred the rights of Americans under the guise of “keeping America safe”. Bunk.
Yes, Libby. I am a US Citizen. And, I live in the states. I just don’t currently live in what Palin considers “Real America”. Funny though, they didn’t win the election.

One concered a pardon. Just sayin’.
Again, where was your concern when illegal actions were being performed? Where was the outrage then?
You folks say it wasn’t torture. So, what’s the problem then? You think you have a defendable position. But now don’t want to try to defend.
