Torture in America

More and more of the focus is bearing down on Obama and McCain, which is natural, I suppose. My worry, though, is that we will get so focused on replacing Bush we lose sight of what his administration has done. Which is tough I think because there have been so many problems and the administration refuses to cede an inch on any of them. But it is important to examine what has been done, so that we can begin to work our way out of it and - hopefully - prevent it from happening again.

Case in point. FBI agents tracked the torture they saw at Guantanamo and other detention centers and the higher ups did nothing about it. They committed torture in our name.
