… critics who think I am (or should be) pissed off because I don’t get to see more torture porn.
In yet another miserable Joe Klein essay validating the morally depraved, inside-the-beltway establishment consensus that on government torture and war crimes, we should all just move along people nothing to see here, one of the regular right-wing commenters, in the usual right-wing-total-lack-of-awareness-of-anything-style, asks the question:
“…if you believe that al-Qaeda and Bin Laden didn’t attack us [...]
“If the president does it, it’s not illegal.”
Let’s drive a stake through the heart of the right-wing meme that says releasing the CIA torture memos was Obama’s choice.
If they know we torture (which we don’t) they’ll grow harder heads and it won’t work. But we don’t do it anyway so never mind. Move along, nothing to see here.
